A century's worth of charm in D7
June Edwards



AN impressive four-bed semidetached house on the New Cabra Road in Dublin 7 has recently come on the market.

Set on this popular tree-lined road leading from Phibsborough village to the Navan Road, No 31 New Cabra Road, or Lisheen as the house is called, is priced at 900,000.

The combination of elegant period features, location close to the city and large gardens make these homes very sought after.

Built in the early 20th century, Lisheen is a large double-fronted semi redbrick home with a floor area of 178sq m (1920sq ft). Set well back from the road, the property comes with a spacious front garden with off-street parking for up to five cars, and a 60ft long rear garden, along with a detached office. Located near St Peter's Church in Phibsborough, the city centre is about 25 minutes' walk.

Well-maintained and in very good condition, there is little work to do for new owners.

Most of the original features remain intact, including period fireplaces, timber flooring, bay windows, high ceilings with decorative coving and an elegant staircase.

Accommodation includes a wide hall with solid oak flooring and understairs storage.

Just off the hall there is a large livingroom with bay window, fireplace with brass canopy and oak flooring. Double doors open from here into a spacious formal diningroom, again with period fireplace, timber flooring and ceiling coving.

To the rear of the house there is a good-sized kitchen/breakfast room with fitted units, a utilityroom and guest WC. A small office completes the downstairs accommodation, while upstairs there are three double bedrooms and one single room. Again bedrooms have cast-iron fireplaces, wooden flooring and ceiling coving. The main bathroom is very spacious and has a free-standing cast iron bath, while there is a second shower room and WC.

The property has oil-fired central heating and has been newly re-wired.
