What you'll like:
- Extended living space: The property features an extended open-plan lounge and kitchen dining room, providing modern day-to-day living flexibility that is typically lacking in standard unextended neighborhood homes.
- Massive private garden: Boasting an impressive 45-meter west-facing rear garden that is completely not overlooked, offering exceptional outdoor space for family recreation, gardening, or future extensions without sacrificing yard area.
- Desirable west orientation: The substantial rear garden enjoys a favorable west-facing orientation, maximizing afternoon and evening sunlight exposure for outdoor dining and natural light penetration into the kitchen.
- Valuable side access: Features a generous side entrance measuring approximately 2.29 meters, which greatly enhances practical utility by allowing direct movement of garden equipment, bicycles, and bins without going through the house.
- Off-street parking: Includes off-street parking provision to the front driveway, securing a dedicated and convenient vehicle space right outside the front door in a busy urban residential setting.
- End of terrace positioning: Occupies an end-of-terrace position which naturally contributes to enhanced privacy, reduced shared party walls, and better overall natural light integration compared to mid-terrace alternatives.
- Convenient LUAS proximity: Situated within a comfortable walking distance of the local LUAS stop, ensuring fast, reliable, and traffic-free public transport commuting directly into Dublin city centre.
- Proximity to healthcare: Positioned close to both Our Lady's Children's Hospital and the new St. James Hospital campus, making this an exceptionally practical location for medical professionals or healthcare employees.
- Recreational amenity access: Located right beside Eamonn Ceannt Park and a short stroll to the Grand Canal, offering immediate access to extensive green open spaces, walking trails, and outdoor recreational facilities.
- No onward chain: Marketed with no onward chain attached to the sale, potentially significantly streamlining the purchase timeline and reducing the complex risks associated with dependent vendor chains.
- Well-proportioned double bedrooms: Upstairs comprises two spacious double bedrooms featuring built-in storage units, avoiding the cramped single rooms often found in similar-sized period houses in this neighborhood.
- Period character features: Retains charming interior elements such as original cast iron fireplaces in the bedrooms and a feature brick open fireplace in the lounge, adding distinct aesthetic character and warmth.
- Modern kitchen finishes: The kitchen comes equipped with contemporary floor and eye-level units complemented by a durable marble worktop, reducing immediate upgrade costs for the incoming buyer.
- Gas-fired central heating: Fitted with a gas-fired central heating system providing reliable and efficient home warmth management, which is a preferred system for straightforward maintenance and rapid temperature control.
- Double glazed windows: Equipped with double glazing throughout the dwelling to improve thermal retention, minimize outside street noise intrusion, and enhance overall household energy efficiency.
- Heated bathroom towel rail: The main family bathroom includes a modern heated towel rail alongside standard fixtures, offering an extra touch of daily comfort and improved towel drying efficiency.
- Established urban location: Set within a well-established and highly popular residential community offering an immediate array of local shops, bars, cafes, and schools within easy walking distance.
- Excellent road connectivity: Benefits from being serviced by robust local bus routes and providing rapid driving access to the M50 motorway network and broader Dublin transport infrastructure.
- Broad buyer appeal: Suited to a diverse range of market entrants including first-time buyers, downsizers, and property investors due to its manageable footprint, strong rental demand, and expansion scope.
- Smart storage integration: Both double bedrooms feature built-in storage units, maximizing usable floor space and removing the immediate need for bulky freestanding wardrobe furniture purchases.
But keep in mind:
- Moderate energy rating: Holds a C BER rating, which indicates that the incoming buyer may want to budget for future insulation, window upgrades, or heating enhancements to achieve top-tier energy efficiency.
- Compact bathroom layout: The main family bathroom measures just 2.00m by 1.49m, representing a relatively tight footprint that might feel restricted for growing families sharing a single bathing facility.
- Unverified building extension: Buyers must independently verify that full planning permission and building control compliance certificates were properly secured for the kitchen and living room extension structures.
- Untested property services: All integrated services, heating systems, and electrical appliances are sold un-tested, meaning the purchaser should commission professional independent inspections before finalizing contracts.
- Potential drainage condition: The immense 45-meter garden length suggests long underground pipe runs, requiring a thorough drain survey to check for root ingress, cracking, or blockages in the wastewater system.
- Boundary fence verification: The exact legal boundaries of the unusually long side access and rear garden should be carefully inspected against the official title maps by a qualified solicitor.
- Potential electrical obsolescence: Given the age typical of houses in this area, the buyer should check the consumer unit and wiring integrity to ensure the electrical system meets modern safety standards.
- Single bathroom bottleneck: Having only one bathroom serving two double bedrooms can create morning bottlenecks for a family, limiting long-term comfort as household sizes change.
- Urban traffic noise: Due to its close proximity to major hospital campuses, city access routes, and busy local hubs, prospective buyers should assess potential ambient traffic and ambulance noise levels.
- Upstairs living proportions: The bedroom dimensions and compact hallway layout indicate that furniture delivery for large items up the stairs might require careful measuring and maneuvering.
- Fireplace compliance check: The open brick fireplace in the lounge and the cast iron bedroom fireplaces should be inspected by a certified chimney sweep to ensure they are safe for operational use.
- Party wall considerations: As an end-of-terrace home, the single shared party wall should be inspected for sound insulation quality and any structural settlement signs common in older urban housing stock.
- Ventilation and damp check: Older extended properties can sometimes suffer from condensation or localized damp in the transition zones between the original structure and the new build footprint.
- Roof and attic insulation: Buyers should physically inspect the attic space to confirm adequate modern insulation depth and check the overall timber and tile condition of the pitched roof structure.
- Surface water management: The vast unpaved garden area should be evaluated for proper surface water drainage slopes to prevent pooling or dampness near the rear extension foundations.
- Future retrofit expenses: Upgrading a C-rated home to a high A or B energy rating to future-proof against rising utility costs could require substantial capital investment in heat pumps or external insulation.
- Local parking congestion: While the property has front off-street parking, visitors and surrounding streets may experience high parking demand due to proximity to hospitals, parks, and local amenities.
- Window seal integrity: Double glazing units can fail over extended periods, so the buyer should check all window frames and seals for signs of internal misting or draft penetration.
- Plumbing water pressure: The buyer should test the hot water flow rate and overall mains water pressure to ensure the bathroom shower mixer operates satisfactorily during peak usage times.
- Flooring wear and tear: The property mixes laminate flooring and new carpets, but buyers should budget for eventual replacement or deep cleaning depending on their personal aesthetic standards.
Price positioning
?
- The asking price appears somewhat undervalued relative to recent local transactions on the same road, where similar residential properties have achieved significantly higher figures in historical sales data.
- Valuation signals such as an extended floor area, a rare forty-five meter private west-facing garden, and modern kitchen upgrades suggest the property holds greater market worth than the baseline asking figure implies.
- The absence of an onward chain and strong transport connections via the nearby LUAS stop support the current price, though potential structural maintenance requirements could temper aggressive buyer bidding competition.
- Considering the prevailing market trends across the wider Dublin 12 district, the listed price provides an attractive entry point that reflects competitive positioning designed to generate strong initial interest.

8/10Water overflow reports to follow up
- Mapping indicates that this Crumlin location sits just outside the modelled extents for larger-scale river flood scenarios.
