One Ballsbridge review: Can Oliver Dunne break the curse of this Dublin 4 dining room?
Why are we getting condensation on our new triple-glazed windows?

Town
Address: 96 Ballygossan Park, Skerries, Co Dublin
Agent: DNG McKenna Healy
Triple-glazed windows and solar panels help to give this property an excellent A3 energy rating, so bills will be economical. With off-street parking and a separate utility room, this two-bed mid-terrace house has a shed in the garden that works as a home office, and both bedrooms are doubles – with an en suite in the principal bedroom.
Plus: Excellent energy rating and turnkey interior
Minus: Downstairs is essentially one long room so noise could travel easily
