Upgraded Edwardian redbrick in Drumcondra offers garden office, extension and B3 BER
Asking price: €695,000 Agent: DNG (01) 833 1802 Originally built as two-up, two-downs in the early 1900s, the Edwardian redbrick houses lining Millmount Place were once humble abodes with dark interiors. Over a century later, demand has now seen most of these homes extended and renovated to suit modern lifestyles. As they're on a quiet, residential street within walking distance of O'Connell Street, they're clearly a winner with professionals working in the city. Number 16 is a prime example of the kind of transformation that can – and did – take a previously modest terraced home into the 21st century. Recent upgrades including rewiring, replumbing, high-grade insulation and a mix of double and triple-glazing brought the BER rating to an energy efficient B3. Updated decor, combined with large rooflights and floor-to-ceiling glazed doors, create a contemporary feel throughout. Spanning 1,023 sq ft, living space includes an entrance hall leading on to a sitting room with plantation window shutters, a living room, guest WC, and an extended kitchen/dining room with Range cooker, integrated units and double doors to the back garden. Upstairs are two double bedrooms and a family bathroom. A bonus which is likely to appeal to buyers is the office that has been created by converting a former garage at the end of the garden, with access to a rear laneway. For hybrid workers, this can provide that all-important sense of working away from home, even though it's actually only steps from the kitchen. Drumcondra village is a short stroll away, as is Griffith Park with its flower garden, outdoor gym, riverside walks and playground.
