This delightful throwback to a bygone age has been occupied by four generations of the same family since it was bought off-plan 92 years ago. The elderly second generation owners are now living elsewhere. They are selling it to release equity for their retirement, children and grand-children.

It's conveniently located between Rathfarnham and Terenure villages, just a short walk from the open green spaces in Bushy Park or Rathfarnham Castle. Nearby, there is an abundance of local amenities including highly regarded schools, sports clubs and golf clubs and a wide range of shops and supermarkets.
