A WELL-MAINTAINED three-bedroom 1920s house in Monkstown, Co Dublin, with a 71ft private back garden, is for sale through Sherry FitzGerald for €875,000. Number 28 Alma Road, a 130sq m (1,400sq ft) house, is one of four pairs of redbrick semi-detached homes built in 1928.
Alma Road connects the main Monkstown road with the coast road at Seapoint Avenue, and number 28 is a five-minute walk from Seapoint Dart station. The road is lined with grand 19th century homes as well as the more manageable period properties, like this one, facing them.
The current owners of this house have lived in it for 18 years. Accommodation includes interconnecting reception rooms off the square front hall. The diningroom at the back opens onto the sheltered back garden with lots of mature plants.
Upstairs are two double bedrooms, both with cast-iron fireplaces, a bathroom and separate toilet. There is a tidy garden at the front with room for off-street parking and a garage at the side which could be converted.
