TERENURE: €3.1M:AN ASKING price of €3.1 million would seem on the high side for a detached four-bedroom house in Terenure, but the house in question, 22 Rathdown Park, is in a much sought-after location.

The detached Stringer-built house is situated in a popular cul-de-sac beside Bushy Park and within easy reach of some of the best southside schools, including Terenure College, Our Lady’s and High School. The house is being sold by private treaty through Douglas Newman Good and Orchard Auctioneers.

The 257sq m (2,770sq ft) house has been refurbished from top to bottom with a very large eat-in kitchen and three reception rooms. A large square hallway is well lit by leaded lights around the front door. The polished walnut floor here runs throughout two interconnecting reception rooms, one of which leads through double doors to the 37ft kitchen. Here, marble-topped, hand-painted units from Newcastle Design leave plenty of space to seat a crowd in front of three sets of French doors leading to the garden.

A family room also connects to the kitchen, as does a compact, fully fitted utility room.

Upstairs, the main bedroom leads to a large dressingroom with fitted wardrobes and shoe shelves.

A large luxuriously fitted bathroom with a stand-alone bath, is used by the main room, while the remaining three bedrooms, two doubles and a large single, have en suites with quality fittings and underfloor heating.

The back garden is sheltered by an abundance of trees and shrubs. To the front is a large area for off-street car-parking.
