A semi-detached Victorian house used up to recently as a nursing home at 26 Northbrook Road, Dublin 6, goes for sale today through David Byrne of Lisney at €1.75 million.

The house extends to 473sq m (5,091sq ft) over three floors with a substantial four-storey return to the rear.

The agent says the well-maintained house offers tremendous scope to be converted into a wonderful family home on one of Dublin’s fashionable roads.

The house comes with a lift to all floors and a spacious lawn garden to the rear. It is little more than a ten-minute walk from St Stephen’s Green.
