Lisney is suggesting a guide price of £620,000 (787,238)-plus for a terraced five-bedroom period house at 14 Spencer Villas in Glenageary, Co Dublin. The property goes to auction on November 14th.
Set in a quiet cul-de-sac off Adelaide Road, within walking distance of Glasthule village, the redbrick house has been extensively refurbished by the current owners and is in walk-in condition. There is a good-sized south-west facing back garden with access to a lane.
The house has a fairly typical layout with two fine interconnecting reception rooms leading off the hall. Both are bright spacious rooms with attractive cornice work, original marble and slate fireplaces and stripped pine flooring that has been underpinned and restored as part of the overall renovation work.
It is at the back of the house that the owners made the most changes, building a sunroom that leads off the kitchen and is at a slightly higher level. While the kitchen is smaller than one might expect in a house of this size, the compensation is in the extra room which acts as family room, diningroom and study combined and has patio doors leading to the garden.
Upstairs, the first of the bedrooms is on the return with three further bedrooms on the first floor. The main bedroom has a wide bay window overlooking the road and a smart en suite shower room. There is a second shower room on the second return, beside the fifth bedroom.
The house has an appealing atmosphere which, added to the convenient location in this popular south Dublin village, should ensure good interest in the run-up to auction.
