In a lovely location beside the Broadstone Basin, midway between Phibsborough village and the city centre, this old-world property has been upgraded to a really high standard and is ready to walk straight into.

The two-bed redbrick has a floor area of 67sq m (720sq ft), and comprises a hall, open-plan living/dining room, separate kitchen, downstairs shower-room, and two bedrooms upstairs.

The hall is almost 3ft by 20ft and has natural slate tiling and downlighting.

Just off the hall is a large open-plan living/dining room of over 10ft by 21ft, which has beautiful polished timber flooring, a feature roof light, dimmer switch downlighting, and elegant French doors out to the rear garden.

A separate kitchen to the rear has pretty fitted white units with Irocco wooden worktops, a new sash window and natural slate flooring.

The downstairs showerroom is fully tiled, while the understairs area is plumbed for a washing machine.

Upstairs there are two double bedrooms, both with original cast-iron fireplaces, restored timber floors, sash windows and TV and telephone points. The landing also has a roof light and restored timber floor.

There is a small railed garden to the front of the house, along with a patio-style garden to the rear, well planted with shrubs, and fitted with outdoor lighting.
