This three-bedroom Victorian house extends to 215 sq m (2,314 sq ft) and is located in a most popular and convenient location between Ranelagh Road and Leeson Street.

While the property will benefit from upgrading, it is the potential to develop a mews to the rear – subject to planning permission – that will also attract buyers to the Ber-exempt property.

Dating from 1875, this coastguard station was converted into a holiday complex which has 16 bedrooms in total between six two-bedroom townhouses, a large three-bedroom officers’ house and a one-bedroom tower.

Perched on an elevated two acre site with superb maritime views, it has endless potential as a Ber-exempt family home, a boutique hotel or as it is for holiday rentals.
