This Victorian redbrick home on South Circular Road has managed to sidestep the trap that so many of these types of homes fall into – despite the extension, all the rooms remain bright and airy.

The terraced 135-square-metre Dublin house is currently for sale for €825,000. Up the stone steps and into the front hall, there’s a well-proportioned living room to the front. It has many of the Victorian-era features, including an ornate cast iron fireplace, original timber floors, sash windows and shutters, as well as detailed cornicing. 

The rest of this floor is set up half a flight to give plenty of ceiling height to the garden-level floor. There are two double bedrooms to the rear, both overlooking the garden and one with a walk-in wardrobe. There is also a family bathroom located here.

Downstairs, a large double bedroom, previously the original kitchen, sits to the front. It still has the old cooker in the chimney. It’s lit by a large sash window and a small courtyard garden at the front, and there is a shower room located behind the front hall. 

To the rear is a bright and large living/kitchen/diner extending the full width of the house, with a wall of glass looking on the back garden and a run of roof lights reflects sunshine off the oak timber floors.

Painted in a classic grey the kitchen is modern and big, with a breakfast bar for casual dining and homework nights. Out back is a small landscaped garden and patio area, which has its own pedestrian entrance onto the back street.
