This one-bedroom, 45sq m (484sq ft) apartment is on the first floor overlooking communal gardens and neighbouring blocks. Along with the bedroom there is a bathroom and open-plan kitchen/living/diningroom with a balcony. It is close to Liffey Valley Shopping Centre, Park West and Cherry Orchard station, the N7 and M50. BER:D2
Lots of glazing in the livingroom makes gives it a spacious feel. There is a large window in the bedroom too. It is near Collinstown Park.
The rooms are small. When the sales material chirps about transport links it often means you will have to commute to services and work. Address: Carrownaclough, Ennistymon, Co Clare Agent: Green Valley Properties
Pretty stone house built in the 1940s and extended since. The 97sq m (1,044sq ft) cottage is undergoing renovation and has been rewired, replumbed, insulated inside and has had triple-glazing installed. On 1.36 acres, the house has a kitchen with multi-fuel stove, bathroom and three bedrooms (one in the attic). There are stone outbuildings. BER: E1
Gorgeous setting with views over the countryside. Ennistymon is just under 2km away.
The new owner will need to finish the renovation work. Insulation is exposed in ceilings and walls, but at least you know it’s there and the work so far looks to have been thorough.
