Greystones/€850,000: Craignathan, a semi-detached period home in the Burnaby, Greystones, comes onto the market today with a guiding price from Jackson Stops of €850,000 prior to auction.

It is located on one of the Burnaby's quietest roads, South Place, a 100-yard long cul-de-sac tucked off Portland Road, just across the park from Greystones DART station and convenient to the town's shops and restaurants.

Outside, Craignathan has a modest front garden but a more substantial garden to the south-facing gable end and west-facing rear. The gardens are mature (fruit trees and hedges) but would benefit from a touch of TLC from an enthusiast - especially so the potentially lovely kitchen garden. The gable has a conservatory taking full advantage of the sunny aspect and there is also a tiled patio terrace.

Downstairs, Craignathan boasts three reception rooms - each with its original Edwardian cast-iron inset fireplace.

The drawingroom and diningroom are connected and face south onto the garden and conservatory. The family room (to the right of the entrance door) is a good size.

Elsewhere, there is a good-sized breakfastroom with redbrick fireplace and original quarry tile floor. The kitchen is fitted with pine units and includes a broom cupboard and rear entrance to the garden.

Upstairs, there are four good-sized bedrooms - each capable of being double bedrooms. A boxroom has been turned into a dressingroom and also has a shower.

The main bathroom is on the return - a large, bright landing.

Overall, Craignathan has been well-maintained inside and out, save for one part of the facia which could do with a lick of paint. The rear garden includes a loo, tool shed and boiler house.
