Designed with excellent taste and practicality making use of every available space, Woodburn Cottage comprises a hallway leading to a deceptively spacious kitchen/dining room, a living room and separate sitting room. The monochrome bathroom with underfloor heating completes this floor. On the first floor, there are two spacious bedrooms with the master ensuite.
The eaves are well-utilised with easy access to storage for everything from suitcases to Christmas decorations. Outside there is a composite decking with a hot tub, which the present owners may leave should you wish. There are a selection of oriental trees and shrubs finishing off the relaxed ambiance of this beautiful home.
28c Stable Lane Mews, Monkstown, County Dublin, €595,000
This charming two-bedroom property, built circa 1850, maintains many of its original features while also benefiting from modernisation by the current owners.

Located at the rear of this small private community, the house is nestled away from the other properties and is ensured privacy with the original granite wall opposite the front door. There is parking at the front for two cars and this area also provides room from a good-sized shed, ideal for bike storage, or wood for the fire.
Inside, the accommodation comprises a cloakroom in the hallway with plenty of storage and a small utility under the stairs, a large open-plan living/dining room with dark wooden floors, low cottage windows and an open fire. Adjacent to this is the bright new modern kitchen with double-glazed windows and doors.
