Enlightened by bright bays and French doors

Dublin 6W: €1.25m:This well positioned elegant Edwardian house retains its original features, writes Emma Cullinan.

A three-bedroom Edwardian redbrick, tucked away off Lower Kimmage Road in Harold's Cross, is for sale through Douglas Newman Good for €1.25 million.

The rose-clad front of 59 Casimir Road has features typical of this period including stained-glass panels, rough stone lintels and a Tudor-style pediment.

On the ground floor is a kitchen and breakfastroom as well as two interconnecting rooms that have period features which are repeated throughout the house.

Both the lounge and adjoining diningroom have timber floors and original plasterwork. The lounge has a marble fireplace while the dining area has a slate one.

French doors open onto the back patio while to the front of the house there are deep windows in a bay. This is mirrored in the bedroom above it. All three bedrooms (one of which is on the return) have cast-iron fireplaces. There is also a bathroom with double shower on the first floor.

Spiral stairs wind up to an attic room, now used as an office, which has its own heating system in the form of a solid fuel stove. Velux windows bring in natural light.

The garden has been designed to keep its occupants entertained and includes a pond, swing seat, outdoor lighting and speakers. There is also a shed here.

Casimir Road is neatly positioned between Terenure and Rathmines, with easy access to both.
