The Gunne agency is seeking offers in the region of £450,000 for 11 Lavarna Grove, a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Terenure, Dublin 6W, that is for sale by private treaty.

The house has a versatile layout. The two main reception rooms are interconnecting and are off the spacious hallway. On through one of the reception rooms is a small annex, which has room for a bedroom and a bathroom. While this has no independent access and you have to walk through the livingroom to get to it, it could make a nice granny flat or au pair's accommodation. On the other side of the hall, in what was once a garage, is a large kitchen that runs from the front of the house to the back.

This has been recently remodelled and now features attractive pine units topped with black granite, an island unit, integrated appliances and, most unusually, air conditioning. The floor has been tiled in rustic looking terracotta tiles.

Just beside the kitchen, at the back of the house, is a family room and a sun room which runs the width of the house.

Upstairs, there are three double bedrooms and a very small single, which would most usefully convert to a home office. Two of the bedrooms have built-in wardrobes. The bathroom is large with modern fittings. New owners will most likely extensively redecorate the house with the exception of the recently installed kitchen.

At the front of the house, most of the garden has been gravelled to make room for two cars.

At the back, the garden feels very secluded with its mature trees and shrubs.
