Original details are evident from the off in the bright hallway with dado rail, plaster cornice and centre rose, and stained timber floorboards. There is 107sq m (1,159sq ft) of space throughout, in a layout of two storey over basement.

To the right off the hall is the main reception room with period features. Down at garden level is a sunny dining room with double doors opening to the sheltered garden. Also overlooking the garden is the bright fitted kitchen.

The modern bathroom is also at garden level, while the basement is currently given over to a spacious laundry room but could possibly convert to a playroom or home office.

On the first floor is a double bedroom, again with period features including the original castiron fireplace. Two further period bedrooms are on the second floor, and also a shower-room.

Outside, the part-decked, partpaved garden has whitewashed walls, outdoor lighting and a feature stone bench. This sunny spot is a natural extension to the dining room for al fresco get togethers.

There is resident permit parking to the front, while a short walk away is St Stephen's Green and a host of amenities.
