Dublin 4: €915,000A three-bedroom townhouse at the landmark Gasworks scheme off Barrow Street in Dublin 4 is high-spec, stylish and in a great city centre location.
Number 7 Pigeon House is one of 12 townhouses built at the fashionable scheme beside the Google offices and is the first to be resold.
The 104sq m (1,120sq ft) townhouse has a price tag of €915,000 and is for sale by private treaty through Lisney.
It will be of great interest to young professionals looking for a city centre pad at a smart address.
The location is great. Barrow Street Dart station is across the road from the main entrance and city centre hotspots are within walking distance.
Based around the curved iron framework of the former gasometer, the innovative Gasworks scheme was designed by architects O'Mahony Pike and incorporates a mix of apartments, duplexes and townhouses in a series of contemporary buildings.
Location aside, the great finish at the scheme is a big attraction. The development is now over two years old and is aging well. Grounds have been landscaped with leafy town trees and flagstones, and there is a hip, affluent and lived-in feel about the development.
Number 7 comes to the market in walk-in condition with a stylish decor.
Access, via secure pedestrian gates, is through a private town courtyard which is laid out in deck and has lots of room for barbecue equipment and garden furniture. The open-plan living/diningroom, with wide-plank timber flooring, is particularly large and has lots of glazing looking out onto the courtyard. It's ideal for entertaining.
The dining area is spacious and has room for a large dining table. Off this is the kitchen with black granite worktop and chic green tiles.
The living area is bright with smart bookshelves and an enormous L-shaped couch.
Upstairs there are two generous and bright bedrooms (one en suite) with extensive wardrobes and in-built drawers.
The third bedroom is at ground floor level. It is laid out as a study. Number 7 also comes with a secure underground car-parking space.
