DUBLIN 6: €2.5M:KNIGHT FRANK is selling a substantial period house at 57 Leeson Park, Dublin 6, for €2.5 million.

Dromona has 405sq m (4,360sq ft) of accommodation over three floors that will appeal to families who have sold their homes and are in the rare position of being able to trade up.

There is a large, welcoming entrance hall with ornate coving and cornicing leading into an equally impressive drawingroom with a bay window overlooking the front garden. Original period features are in place including elaborate plasterwork, sash windows and shutters.

On the opposite side of the hall, a kitchen/breakfastroom is the centrepiece of the house and has an open fire. There is also an office and bathroom on the ground floor with direct access to the garden.

Upstairs are four bedrooms, two of them with the same proportions as the drawingroom and diningroom on the lower floor. A strong selling point for the house will be the self-contained two-bedroom apartment at garden level.
