25 Hammond Street, Blackpitts, Dublin 8
This end-of-terrace two-bedroom home comes to the market in walk-in condition in Blackpitts, an area popular for its proximity to the south side of the city centre. The property, first built in 1893, extends to 75sq m (807sq ft), and is a 20-minute walk from St Stephen’s Green and Temple Bar, while regular Dublin Bus routes stop nearby. You’re spoiled for choice when it comes to nearby coffee spots with the likes of Noshington, BiBi’s and Little Bird Coffee & Yoga nearby, to name a few.
You enter number 25 Hammond Street into a small porch before entering the livingroom, which has wooden floors and white walls. The kitchen lies beyond it through double doors and features cream units and integrated appliances.

The staircase in the kitchen leads to the first floor where there are two double bedrooms with built-in wardrobes and wooden floors, and the bathroom. The home has an E2 BER rating, which a new owner may look to address. Number 52 Hammond Street is on the market through DNG, seeking €445,000.
