Whitehall £122,000-plus

A good-sized two-bed semi-detached house at 3 Larkhill Road, in Whitehall, Dublin 9, is on the market through Mason Estates. It could appeal to someone looking for a house for students attending nearby DCU, or indeed anyone looking for a property fairly close to the city - Whitehall is north of Drumcondra, on several good bus routes into town. A well-built former local authority house in need of modernisation, it has a livingroom, large diningroom and kitchen downstairs. Upstairs are two bedrooms, one with built-in wardrobes, and a bathroom. There is a small garden at the front, and a longer garden at the back. The house has gas-fired central heating, and aluminium windows. Carpets and curtains are included in the sale.
