Dublin 4/€1.6m: A large two-bedroom penthouse apartment in the St Ann's development on Ailesbury Road in Donnybrook, Dublin 4 is expected to make over €1.6 million at auction through Wyse on September 22nd.

Apartments of this size don't often come up in St Ann's, a mature development that is particularly favoured by wealthy retirees. Number 37 has over 186 sq m (2,000 sq ft) of living space with very large reception rooms where floor-to-ceiling windows give terrific westerly views over Donnybrook Church towards the mountains. The well-kept communal areas are maintained by a janitor and there is a video intercom system to the apartment.

The entrance hall leads to a very large, almost square livingroom with sliding doors to a balcony that is almost 40 ft long.

A separate dining area leading off the livingroom is almost as large, and it connects to a spacious galley-style kitchen with modern Shaker-style units.
