£150,000-plus sought for terraced two-bed

Gulistan Place is a quiet cul-de-sac off Upper Mount Pleasant Avenue, in Rathmines, Dublin 6, where a two-bedroom terraced townhouse is on the market through Gunne. The pebble-dashed house, which has a floor area of over 600 sq ft, has been refurbished and retains many of its original features. The back garden, though small, has been nicely landscaped with a lawn bounded by shrubs and a overhung with clematis.

Selling agent Peter Kenny is seeking offers in excess of £150,000 for the property in a private treaty sale. The tiled entrance hall opens into a small, bright livingroom.

It has a pine floor, a cast-iron fireplace and double doors to the back garden. The eat-in kitchen also has a timber floor and a timber-effect MDF units.

Unusually, the stairs to the upper floor rises from the kitchen and is lit by a skylight over the upper landing. Upstairs, the two bedrooms have cast-iron fireplaces and good-sized windows. The main one is to the front while the smaller, second bedroom overlooks the rear garden. The bathroom has a cast-iron bath and a cork-tile floor. There is gas-fired central heating.

The high-walled, south-east-facing garden has a Barna shed and, on one side, a 25 ft high wall covered in clematis and honeysuckle. Another wall is ivy-clad and there is a fine rockery waiting to come into late-spring bloom. The patio is more than big enough for al fresco dining.
