MONKSTOWN: € 1.525M:IN THE 1860s four matching two- storey over garden level houses were built on Eaton Place in Monkstown.

They don’t come on the market too regularly, the last one was in the 1980s, but now number 2 Eaton Place is for sale through Douglas Newman Good for €1.525 million.

In its current layout, this is a three-bedroom house with a self-contained two-bedroom apartment at garden level.

The family live in the home as was intended, using the grand first floor room as their formal drawingroom. It’s large, elegant and has sea views.
