CO DUBLIN - €2.5M:WITH FOUR price cuts since it first went on the market in February, Woodridge, a five-bedroom detached house off Ferndale Road in Rathmichael, Co Dublin is now asking €2.5 million.  

The substantial stone-fronted house first went on the market in February at €4 million but the agent, Sherry FitzGerald, subsequently quoted reduced prices in May, August, September and this month - the most recent representing a price of €5,167 per sq m (€480 per sq ft).

Set on 0.75 acres, the property, which was built in 2006, is light and bright thanks to the double height vaulted ceilings in a number of rooms and the predominantly white colour scheme in many of the rooms.

The 483sq m (5,200sq ft) house has all mod cons including mood lighting, multi-room audio and underfloor heating. A large draw-ingroom with two bay windows has an open fire. The main reception room is an open-plan kitchen/dining/livingroom, a classy contemporary space decorated in whites and beiges. The kitchen is custom-made with a central granite top island, double Belfast sink and a cream Aga. The livingroom is like a sunroom with a double height ceiling. A feature of the room is a white wood-burning stove.

Also downstairs there's a double bedroom with walk-in wardrobe and shower en suite, an office, playroom and family room.

Upstairs, there's a decked balcony plumbed for a hot tub which can be accessed from the main bedroom which has a vaulted ceiling, dressingroom and walk-in wardrobe. There are three further double bedrooms at this level, only one of which is en suite.
