DUN LAOGHAIRE €650,000:A BUYER LOOKING for a home and office might be interested in a large Victorian house in Dún Laoghaire, a short walk from the town centre and the sea.
The house, up to now a family home, is on Adelaide Street, a road with a mix of commercial and residential properties that runs down from Dún Laoghaire’s main street, George’s Street, towards the sea.
Number 1 is a two-storey over basement family four-bed at the George’s Street end. It comes with many of its original period features, including fireplaces, cornicing and window shutters. Built in 1839, it is for sale through DNG for €650,000.
Accommodation in the 223sq m (2,400sq ft) house, which was renovated in the past 10 years, includes a large open plan kitchen/dining room, family room and study/playroom at garden level, and a bedroom on the return; on the first floor there is a living room and dining room and three bedrooms upstairs.
The back garden is laid out with a patio and gravel, and there’s a cut-stone shed at the bottom of the garden.
There is also room for parking at the back.
The agent says that there is potential to build a mews, subject to planning permission.
Adelaide Street is a convenient spot: at one end is the Kingston Hotel and a bridge leading over the rail line to the seafront; at the other, around the corner on George’s Street, is Alex’s 24-hour newsagents.
The Dart station at Sandycove is a five- to 10-minute walk.
The house is on view from noon to 1pm this Saturday.
