Located in the heart of redbrick Ranelagh, number 14 Ashfield Road comes to the market with an AMV of €1.5 million prior to auction on October 4th. It's for sale through Sherry FitzGerald. The 139sq m (1,500sq ft) house is in good structural order and will suit a young family and trader-uppers looking for a blank canvas. The Victorian house has an unusually deep return, giving the house three good-sized double rooms. Period features remain intact, including a stained glass window on the landing. Located between Beechwood Luas stop and Ranelagh village, it is close to many amenities.

Ballsbridge €950,000

Selling agent McPeake Auctioneers say that this two-bedroom terraced house (3 Lansdowne Lane, Ballsbridge) needs "a touch of modernisation" but the location, off Shelbourne Road in Dublin 4, should ensure plenty of interest. Dating from 1980, the modest two-storey house has a sizeable livingroom and kitchen, and two double bedrooms upstairs. The total floor space is 85sq m (915sq ft) - the size of a generous two-bedroom apartment. There is no back garden, but off-street parking in front of the house will prove valuable on rugby match days. Lansdowne Lane ends with the gates into the stadium.

Dublin 6: €510,000

Buyers looking to get into the Dublin 6 market at an affordable price will be tempted by a one-bedroom apartment located off Palmerston Park. Selling agent Bohan Property Consultants is asking €510,000 for 20A Balnagowan, a ground floor apartment in a scheme built in the 1980s on the grounds of a Benedictine Priory. The 61sq m (660sq ft) unit is in need of some modernisation. However, its location five minutes from both Milltown and Cowper Luas stops and its upmarket leafy suburban setting are likely to be big selling points. Residents also get to enjoy a beautiful walled rose garden.

West Cork: €1.4m

Cork agent Liam Hodnett is guiding €1.4 million for a stylish three-bedroom house with superb sea views in west Cork. Squince Point in Cooscroneen is located 2.5 miles from the fishing village of Union Hall. In walk-in condition, the pretty house is fitted out in a low-key rustic style. Accommodation includes a livingroom with wood-burning stove, a hardwood conservatory, a study, a self-contained one-bedroom guest cabin attached to the main residence and a studio. Set on one acre of mature landscaped land, the house overlooks Squince Harbour and Rabbit and Myross islands.
