Spotahome's opinion
The Rathfarnham Delight
Because it's charming.
Will I like it here?
We're confident you will. New to Dublin? Need a hand getting settled? Sharing with the live-in landlady will give you a head start when it comes to getting to know the neighbourhood.
Really? Tell me more...
You can expect laidback suburban living in this delightful house in Rathfarnham. You have two living rooms to choose from, both with charming decor choices. Plus there's a garden for those sunny days.
We think this neighbourhood is ideal for easygoing individuals. Not fussed about the packed bars and restaurants in the city-centre? Instead you could enjoy movies and good books in this cosy property in residential Rathfarnham.
Your top 3 reasons to live here:
- Parking is a plus - getting into the centre is speedy in a car.
- Nearby you'll find lots of lovely parks and some golf courses too.
- A dishwasher saves you time and energy.
- Visitors are allowed but no overnight guests.
But you need to know this...
- This property is a 20-minute journey from Dublin city-centre by public transport - but 30 minutes in the car!
And this...
- You will be sharing the house with the landlady who is in her early 60s, plus her brother. She is very outgoing and has lived in many countries. She likes French wine and cooking.
Your Home-checker, Tom, said:
“the room is a large spacious double room...with an extremely large built-in wardrobe..."
Help me make up my mind...
This is a 5-bedroom house in Barton Drive in Dublin. It has two cosy living rooms, a well-equipped kitchen, and the bonus of a lovely garden too. There's also the convenience of a dishwasher.
It is perfect for those who fancy relaxed weekends in a chilled-out residential neighbourhood. Chat with the live-in landlady - she can offer tips on what's good to do nearby. Or head into the centre on the bus.
