The aged listing for 5 Victoria Terrace still persists on the internet from when it was last on the market, back in 2017. At the time, it was listed for €285,000, and unfortunately had a pretty dismal G Ber rating. Bafflingly, there were no images of the quaint two-bedroom inside of the cottage, most likely suggesting poor interior conditions. However, it was eventually sold the following year for €345,000, which was substantially more than the initial asking price, as per the Property Price Register.
Located on an exclusive residential lane in Dundrum’s core, the period-made, redbrick property’s placement is a significant selling factor. Everything one could need is at hand; the Dundrum Town Centre is just a five-minute stroll away, while the Airfield Gardens and Farm are also within walking distance. A vast array of public transport options, including the Luas at Dundrum, enable quick and easy access to the city centre for work or leisure purposes.
Following a comprehensive renovation, the property, measuring 65sq m (700sq ft), now boasts an upgraded Ber rating to C1. The interior, highlighted by a brilliant redbrick exterior, features a light limed oak engineered wood flooring that extends from the hallway to the kitchen/dining area. The space is embraced by ample natural light pouring in from skylights against an understated backdrop.
The updated listing describes 5 Victoria Terrace as having two to three bedrooms. Upstairs lies two double bedrooms, each equipped with integrated wardrobes, while the third serves as a ground-floor living room located at the front of the property. While this room could possibly function as a third bedroom for renting purposes, it’s more likely the homeowner would opt to maintain it as a living room, given the property’s dimensions.
One delightful element of the property is the private, secluded patio at the rear, which is backed by a magnificent cut-granite wall with limestone paving beneath. This could prove to be an incredible hosting area when the weather is agreeable.
One important aspect to keep in mind is that there’s no designated parking space at Victoria Terrace for this charming property, but given its central location, potential homeowners could certainly manage without a vehicle. Sherry FitzGerald is currently advertising 5 Victoria Terrace for a price of €495,000.
