Offers in excess of £465,000 (€590,430) are invited for a four-bedroom Ranelagh yellowbrick townhouse with restored period features. Finnegan Menton is the selling agent for 15 Bessborough Parade, one of a terrace in this quiet cul-de-sac at the canal end of Mount Pleasant Avenue. With 1,610 sq ft of living space, the neat exterior masks a sizable family home.
Although number 15 has been modernised in recent years, many period features remain undisturbed. There is crisp decorative cornicing in the long entrance hall and - around the house - there are period fireplaces and shuttered sash windows.
The diningroom at the front has a slate fireplace with a brick inset, fitted with a coal-effect fire. In the sittingroom, ceiling cornicing is classic style and the carved timber fireplace also has a brick inset. French doors open from here to a hardwood conservatory.
The kitchen is large enough for family dining. Pine cupboards are teamed with wood-panelled walls and cream tiles are laid on the floor. The four bedrooms all have fitted wardrobes.
On the first-floor return is a single bedroom which would make an ideal study. Off the main landing are a large bedroom with en suite and two further double rooms. The town-sized back garden has raised brick flower beds and boundary walls are smothered in climbing roses.
Steps climb to a timber deck and a garage with access from a back lane.
