A new three-bedroom mews house off Pembroke Street Lower is to be auctioned on 12th October through the Sherry FitzGerald agency. The house, across the lane from the Focus Theatre, has a guide of £500,000.

1 Pembroke Street, Dublin 2, is at the end of a mews lane and looks across to the backs of large Georgian houses on Pembroke Road. The house is one of a row of three and has an old-style brick exterior.

The interior has polished maple floors in the general areas, ash doors with decorative mahogany detail, brass plug sockets and light switches and gold-plated bathroom taps. Carpets and curtains are included in the sale.

The sittingroom is on the first floor and on the top floor, there is a balcony large enough to sit on.

A recessed porch opens into the hall, which has a guest lavatory off it. A bevelled glass door opens into the kitchen/ diningroom, which has timber units, polished granite worktops and non-slip ceramic tiles on the floor. A full range of Neff electrical appliances is included in the sale.

The sittingroom spans most of the first floor. It has a marble fireplace with gas fire and an entire wall of purpose-built units including bookshelves and a granite-topped drinks cabinet.

The double bedroom next to it is currently fitted out as a study, with a dressing table which converts to a writing desk. Two further bedrooms on the top floor consist of a small double with Sliderobes and a main bedroom with wardrobes and a dressing table unit. There is an en suite shower room off this bedroom, with doors leading to a balcony. Also on this floor is a large bathroom with orange and blue tiles.

A large integral garage opening on to a laneway is suitable for conversion subject to planning permission.
