The current owners of Number 33 Ormond Road in Rathmines, Dublin 6, have refurbished it in a way that is mindful of its considerable period detail.

Built in the 1880s, this end-of-terrace redbrick house on the corner of Ormond Road and Annesley Park has the original fine mantelpieces, plasterwork, cornicing and timber sash windows with shutters.

The house is for sale by private treaty for £520,000 (660,000) through Sherry FitzGerald.

It was withdrawn from auction in April and the current price has been reduced in the past month.

Off the hallway of this 1,405sqft house are two fine interconnecting terracotta-coloured reception rooms with matching marble fireplaces, polished timber floors and deep coving.

The kitchen/breakfastroom has a gas-fired Stanley range at its heart and a patio door provides access to the west-facing rear garden.

On the first floor return is one of the three double bedrooms, which features an original cast-iron fireplace.

The shower room, comprising a toilet and a shower cubicle, is also at this level.

The second bedroom is L-shaped and overlooks a rear garden. Built-in wardrobes extend the depth of the room.

The main bedroom has twin sash windows and an impressive sunny yellow en suite bathroom with free-standing cast-iron bath with claw feet, blue-tiled power shower, mirrored cabinet and chrome fittings.

The railed front garden is mainly in gravel. A side entrance leads to the rear garden, which is landscaped with a patio and perimeter planting.

The house has an alarm and central heating is gas fired.
