Beautifully presented, this 60sq m (646sq ft) property is easily managed, with a host of amenities on its doorstep, the close proximity to the city made it the ideal bachelor pad for owner Sean Hynes, managing partner with Bonfire advertising agency.

"The bachelor bit is finished, " laughs Sean who bought the house when it was newly-built 15 years ago.

His fiancee Bernie O'Donoghue agreed to marry him when he proposed to her on a recent trip to Paris.

Over the past three years the couple have put a lot of energy into transforming No 30 into the ideal city home.

They are are also involved in a major renovation in their new home in Raheny. They are managing the project with their architect, and Bernie's dad.

The couple's expertise can be seen in Mount Argus Crescent. Downstairs, the living area is now open-plan, beautifully textured with wooden floors, glass and tiles in neutral colours.

The kitchen has been freshened with modern door handles and new tiles. Upstairs, the bathroom has been given a classy revamp with a new suite, and there are two double bedrooms with lovely views over the Eamonn Ceannt Park.

The house is not overlooked and surrounded by lovely trees and greenery.

The now mature hedges Sean planted the week he moved in provide wonderful seclusion and privacy at the back, ideal for sunbathing and summer barbecues. The garden is laid out in lawn with a pebbled area.

The property has its own side entrance and to the front is a cobble-lock driveway providing off-street car parking.

Service charge is 240 per annum.
