Ranelagh £250,000

A very appealing two-bedroom cottage on Colliers Avenue, Ranelagh is guiding £250,000 (€317,430) prior to auction on 23rd May. Douglas Newman Good is the selling agent. Originally two cottages, number 10/11 has undergone a stylish restoration and is in walk-in condition. Striking reds and blues are used throughout the interior of the whitewashed cottage. Downstairs floors are polished timber and many ceilings are also pine panelled. The large sittingroom has deep raspberry walls and a floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace with a rosewood mantel.

A Velux window and a side window to the terrace makes this room unusually bright. A square archway opens on to a deep saffron kitchen, with cream units and attractive chequered wall tiles. The wood panelled ceiling has old-style timber joists and most of the electrical equipment is included in the sale.

There is one double and one single bedroom, with the main bedroom tucked away upstairs. The sloping pine ceilings have recessed lighting and the room is wired for sound. The bathroom has a bath and power shower and polished timber floors and walls.

Outside there is a tiny but picturesque west-facing courtyard, with exposed granite walls and cobble locking.
