Southside semi with a 120ft long garden

DUN LAOGHAIRE - €720,000:NUMBER 29 HIGHTHORN Park is a house that's been attracting
good interest since going on the market a fortnight ago.

The reason, according to Kathy Crowe of Gunne, is that it's well priced for a four-bedroom home with a 36.3-metre (120ft) garden in a nice neighbourhood close to Monkstown and Dún Laoghaire.

Highthorn Park is off Lwr Mounttown Road, with some of the 1950s semis backing onto the old Dún Laoghaire golf course grounds.

Number 29 is on the other side of the cul-de-sac, set back from the road with a good-sized front garden and off-street car-parking.

Inside, it has the feel of a country cottage, with logs piled up in the utility room that runs from front-to-back of the house alongside a long eat-in kitchen with floorboards painted soft cream. Antique pine units are fitted around a Belfast sink while open pine shelving and a giant clock add interest.

On the other side of the hall is a small playroom with original tiled fireplace while the livingroom is a good-sized room with French doors opening to the back garden.

A solid timber stairs rises to the first floor where three bedrooms share a pretty bathroom. From the landing, stairs rise to the attic, where there is a large bedroom ideal for an au pair, as it has its own shower room.

There's a great view over the long, cottage-style garden and the surrounding gardens. There's a patio, lawn, curved beds and a potential vegetable garden right at the end.
