Redbrick offers plenty of living space

Ballsbridge: €1

Ballsbridge: €1.9M:IN BALLSBRIDGE, Dublin 4, 37 Pembroke Park is a well-located, late Victorian Crampton-built redbrick. One of a pair of semi-detached family homes, the roomy five-bedroom property measures 214sq m (2,305sq ft) in size.

It’s for sale at €1.9 million through agents Beirne and Wise.

The house feels generous is size with a spacious hall leading into two interconnecting reception rooms, each with original fireplace, cornicing and sliding doors. The ceilings are 12ft high.

Out back a small sittingroom opens into a kitchen extension. The original part of this floor is quarry tiled. It is in need of an upgrade and the space would benefit from being opened up into one large room. French doors lead from the kitchen onto a city-size private terrace and barbecue area. This is south facing.

From the kitchen there is pedestrian rear access onto Morehampton Lane. The lane is roofed in and offers additional storage space. A second terrace gets the morning sun.

Four of the five bedrooms in the house have shower en suite bathrooms. One of these is on the return. On the first floor there is a traditional single bedroom and two ample bedrooms, each big enough to fit a double and single bed. Reconfiguring the front bedroom to incorporate the single bedroom would create a sizable master suite.

There’s another double with en suite bathroom on the first floor return. While the house is well maintained, the next owner might like to spruce up some of the decorative details.

There is off-street parking for up to four cars.

The house is situated a stone’s throw from Herbert Park and round the corner from Donnybrook Village.

Ballsbridge is a 10-minute walk away.
