Mount Merrion: €1.4m: Guiding €1.4 million before auction on July 7th with Palmer Property Advisors and Re/Max Properties Plus, Dunsland on Stillorgan Road would make a fine trophy home given a cosmetic upgrade.
This 158sq m (1,700sq ft) Kenny-built house was built in the 1920s/'30s and has a 160ft westerly back garden, so could take a sizable extension subject to planning. Convenience is the watchword, with Stillorgan, Blackrock and Mount Merrion the doorstep and a quality bus corridor outside the gates.
At present, there are five bedrooms (four with wardrobes), sitting and diningrooms, study, quarry-tiled kitchen and an integral garage which could immediately be converted. The large gardens have an old-fashioned charm, with a potting shed, workshop and mature planting. The front forecourt parks three or four cars.
