44 Warner’s Lane, Dartmouth Road, Ranelagh

Description: Box-shaped mews with four bedrooms

Agent: DNG

NUMBER 44 Warner’s Lane, on Dartmouth Road in Ranelagh, Dublin 6, is one of those houses that doesn’t pretend to be anything other than uncompromisingly modern.

A box-shaped mews that’s all clean lines and high-gloss fittings (including the fitted kitchen and the floor tiles), it will appeal to those who don’t hanker after a Ranelagh red brick but prefer a house to be new and relatively low-maintenance.

For a mews home it’s spacious at 148sq m (1,600sq ft) and has four bedrooms – the main one takes up the top floor.

DNG is asking €575,000 for the house, which has the bonus of extra outdoor space with a rooftop patio and a decked balcony.

The main living space is a long, open-plan livingroom/diningroom/kitchen where everything is white – and, some might think, so sterile that it looks as if surgery could be performed in there. There is a big skylight in the kitchen/dining area and shiny white tiles.

The kitchen is finished in cream gloss with a free-standing island, plenty of storage space, high quality appliances and marble worktops and there’s also a guest toilet and cloakroom on the ground floor. On the first floor there are three double bedrooms and a family bathroom and on the top floor there’s a main bedroom which is en suite. All of the bedrooms have fitted wardrobes and the main bathroom has a shower and bath.

As you’d expect in a modern house, the flooring is unfussy, comprising largely of solid wood and tiles, and the fittings in the bathrooms are high spec.

The front garden is mainly cobblelocked and has off-street parking for two cars accessed via electronic gates. There’s also a landscaped rear garden with a patio area. This space is a bit bare looking now, but a little planting would sort that out.

Warner’s Lane is a quiet residential laneway just off Leeson Street to the rear of Dartmouth Square.
