A home office, reception room 3/bedroom 4 and guest wc at hall level. Upstairs are three generous bedrooms, one en suite and large family bathroom.

The gardens are a true feature of this house – the jewel in the crown!

About the Area
Clonskeagh is a southern suburb of Dublin. A primarily a residential area, developed in the early decades of the 20th century, it has a small village green with a few local shops. The district has changed in character as population growth in greater Dublin has imposed increasingly intensive use of land and the nearby Luas light railway has improved commuter access to central Dublin. Since 2000, housing development has intensified land use further by building in larger gardens, replacing houses by apartments and adding storeys to properties.
