81 Ballytore Road, Rathfarnham, Dublin 14, €525,000, Lisney

The long, walled back garden is a strong feature of a 1960s house in Rathfarnham needing modernisation. The 120sq m (1,300sq ft) four-bed has a livingroom, diningroom and kitchen/breakfastroom downstairs, and four bedrooms upstairs, with a family bathroom and toilet. While dated, the house is well-maintained, says the agent, and a walk away from Rathfarnham and Terenure villages.

On view Saturday 11am-11.30am
