There is a tasteful understated elegance about Number 7 Ashfield Road, a terraced redbrick house in Ranelagh, Dublin 6, which will be auctioned on Thursday April 26th through Lisney with a guide price of £400,000 (€507,900). Situated close to the junction of Beechwood Road on one side, it is also a few minutes' walk from the Ranelagh Road on the other..
To the left of the hall is the diningroom with original coving and a sash window overlooking Ashfield Road. More recent additions include polished wooden floors, which run throughout the downstairs, and the handsome marble fireplace with black cast-iron inset and gas coal-effect fire.
An identical fireplace is the centre-piece of the adjoining sittingroom, which has a large picture window overlooking the small rear flagged and landscaped west-facing garden.
The breakfastroom has French doors to the side patio, a ceramic tiled floor, and recessed lighting. The focal point of the room is the arched redbrick open fireplace, currently used to showcase a flower arrangement. The kitchen behind has newly installed Shaker-style units.
A window at the top of the stairs provides extra light. Mid-landing is a white tiled bathroom and separate toilet.
There are two double bedrooms and one single off the main landing.
The larger bedrooms have original cast-iron fireplaces, one black and the other painted white.
The house has been rewired, re-plumbed, reroofed, and damp proofed. There is on-street resident disc parking.
