Drumcondra: €950,000In this market, presentation is going to be key for people putting their house on the market and that's something that the owners of 10 Claude Road in Drumcondra certainly understand.

Their three-bedroom terraced house in a cul-de-sac off Whitworth Road has been extended and decorated to its best advantage and new owners will find it in move-in condition. It is for sale through Sherry FitzGerald for €950,000.

At hall level there are two stylish interconnecting reception rooms and the extended kitchen is at the back of the house. There is a picture window here instead of the more usual double doors so it's possible to look from the kitchen back into the livingroom, something some prospective buyers may not be too keen on. The good-sized kitchen has smart contemporary units and opens into a good-sized bright family room with access to the back garden.

The three bedrooms have been supplemented by an attic conversion - a room also used as a bedroom - and all are painted in soft pale colours while some have their original floorboards and cast-iron fireplaces. The very stylish black and white-themed bathroom in the first floor return has a freestanding bath and a walk-in shower. A lane runs along the back of these houses giving vehicular access.
