An Edwardian house on Mount Shannon Road in Dublin 8, right beside the Luas, near to St James's Hospital and the Irish Museum of Modern Art, is selling for €890,000.
HOUSES ON THE Edwardian Mount Shannon Road, Kilmainham, don't come on the market often and when they do they generally attract city-based young professionals with babies in mind.
Number 8 is no exception, and will appeal to buyers looking for a family home within the city environs. It is for sale through Savills HOK for €890,000.
Mount Shannon is a quiet cul-de-sac off the South Circular Road in Dublin 8. The Luas track runs behind the gardens on one side of the road (the side that this house is on) and St James' Hospital is just around the corner.
Like some houses on the road, number 8 has been given a thoroughly modern makeover - original floorboards have been polished up, walls are gleaming white and clutter and colour have been kept to a minimum.
The most dramatic addition is a large kitchen/dining extension at the rear of the house.
The three-bedroom terraced house has 155sq m (1,677sq ft) of living space.
There are two traditional inter-connecting reception rooms laid out as a drawingroom and sittingroom. Both have original coving, cornicing and impressive fireplaces.
The swanky kitchen extension has a Nordic feel with maple flooring, hardwood countertops, crisp white units and stainless steel cooking area. The kitchen has an adjoining utility room.
Two bedrooms and the bathroom are on the first floor and a third bedroom and shower room are on the top floor.
Outside there is a courtyard-style back garden with patio and mature shrubs.
