Stunning and unusual interiors are a feature of St Kevin's, a refurbished church on Bloomfield Avenue, Dublin 8.

Many of the apartments have original, stained-glass windows, Gothic details and pitch pine floors and panelling.

Number 25 - a two-bedroom penthouse - has all of these, as well as a fine entrance hall and a mezzanine bedroom with a barrel-vaulted timber ceiling. Douglas Newman Good expects it to fetch over £220,000 at auction on November 17th.

The apartment is presented in walk-in condition and comes with several extras including custom-made wrought iron shelving in the living-room, a fitted futon base and desk in one of the bedrooms and good fitted storage throughout.

The only drawback is that there is no lift, and the apartment is on the third floor.
