Sandycove, Dublin – €875,000

This property has a surprisingly large interior considering its façade. Two of its three bedrooms come as doubles, with two large reception rooms as well. The first floor of the property holds the master bedroom which comes as an en suite.

Potential buyers may also be attracted by its desirable south Dublin location. One big advantage highlighted by the estate agent is that many of its rooms have the potential to be re-appropriated for different uses.
