Location and charm at a price in Dublin 6

Cherryfield Avenue is a quiet cul-de-sac of stucco-fronted houses off Ranelagh’s Sandford Road. The road comprises lower and upper levels. Number 19 is on the upper part of the street at the top of the terrace, one from the end.

The house has interconnecting reception rooms with fireplaces. The kitchen, situated on the return, is small with doors opening on to a room used as a utility by the owners. This part of the house is under used. Several of the neighbours have extended to increase the footprint to the rear. There is a toilet under the stairs.

The garden is small but private. East-facing in orientation it overlooks the grounds of Milltown Institute of Theology and Philosophy run by the Jesuits.
