Spacious interior in detached house

Number 12 Laurelton is a three-bedroom detached house in a quiet cul-de-sac off Bushy Park Road, in Rathgar, Dublin 6. Scheduled for auction through Billy O'Sullivan on July 6th, it is expected to fetch in the region of £400,000.

Built in the late 1980s, the two-storey house has a pleasant creeper-clad exterior and is deceptively spacious inside. The floor area is just over 1,700 sq. ft and it has two very large reception rooms and a 20-ft kitchen cum breakfast room.

A long hallway runs from to back of the house. The drawing room has an attractive Le Droff fireplace and French doors opening on to the rear patio and garden.

A family room also has access to the garden through French doors. The kitchen has a good range of Arco oak units and tiled work tops. A door from the kitchen leads to a passage at the side of the house. The first of the bedrooms is on the ground floor and it has an en suite shower room. There is also a full bathroom at this level. Upstairs, the main bedroom is a large double room with eaves storage, built-in wardrobes and an en suite shower room. The third bedroom also has good storage space and there is also a walk-in wardrobe off the upstairs landing.

The house is in immaculate decorative order throughout, although at this level of the market buyers generally budget to carry out full redecoration to suit their own taste.

There is off-street parking in front of the house and a good-sized walled garden to the rear.
