Some of the most interesting interiors are behind the front doors of two-up-two-downs on Dublin's city centre redbrick terraces. 138 Oxmantown Road, Dublin 7, is in the heart of Stoneybatter, which makes it a short stroll into the city centre.
Like some of its neighbours it has changed hands in recent years and has been completely modernised so is now a stylish home that makes the most of the space available. It is for sale by private treaty through the Property Shop for £185,000 (€234,902).
The ground floor has been opened up to make one large lightfilled room with the kitchen to the front of the house. This has been newly fitted with maple units and is separated from the rest of the room by a breakfast bar.
The living area has an open fireplace, smart built-in storage and extra skylights. These, together with the glazed patio doors that take up the wall at the far end of the room, mean that the room is particularly bright. The fully tiled shower room is downstairs.
Upstairs there are two double bedrooms, both with their original cast-iron fireplaces. This is a fairly recent conversion so the decoration in all the rooms is in very good condition with a colour scheme that was chosen to maximise the sense of space and light.
There is a small yard at the back of the house with rear access.
