A neat two-bedroom house at Stradbrook Road in Blackrock, Co Dublin, carries a guide price of £270,000-plus prior to auction through Sherry FitzGerald on July 21st.
Garcanville is a detached dormer-style house on a corner site at the junction of Stradbrook Road and Deans grange Road. It is in very good decorative order and will probably appeal to older buyers planning to trade down from larger homes in the area. There is a lawn to the side of the house and a patio to the rear, but both areas are small and designed to be low maintenance. Inside, Garcanville has just over 1,200 sq ft of living space, which is generous for a two-bedroom house. This allows for two separate reception rooms - one on either side of the hall - and a spacious kitchen nicely fitted with sleek pine units with integrated appliances. All three rooms have polished timber floors. At the end of the hall is a long narrow utility room-cum-office, which has French doors leading to the garden. Upstairs, the two bedrooms lead off a big bright landing. Both rooms are doubles and have slanted ceilings. The dormer-style roof allows for a good deal of under eaves storage which is accessed from both sides of the landing and from the bathroom.
