Dublin Fixer-Uppers: 5 of the best property projects to get stuck into

These properties require a little bit of TLC - but you might just bag yourself a bargain.

Read on for details on some less-than-turnkey properties in Ballyfermot, Cherry Orchard, Smithfield, Santry and Ranelagh...

34 Claddagh Road, Ballyfermot
€265,000
3-bed semi-detached house

A spacious, three-bed semi at a great price - this Ballyfermot house has the extra selling point of ample outside space. The back garden is large and private, and there's lots of room for off-street parking at the front.

The open-plan ground floor will appeal to plenty of potential buyers, and the attic conversion is another boon, adding to the overall floor space.

10 Cherry Orchard Avenue, Ballyfermot
€275,000
4-bed terraced house

This modern, spacious end-terrace looks ideal for a family, with its large kitchen/diner, four bedrooms and immaculate gardens.

The property is close to the wide open spaces of The Lawns and Ballyfermot village, as well as being within striking distance of the city centre. A light renovation seems to be all that is required here, and at €275k it looks like a bargain

13 Little Strand Street, Smithfield
€395,000
2-bed terraced house

What a location! This little terrace is within walking distance of the fashionable areas of Smithfield and Stoneybatter, as well as the city centre, with Dublin 8 just across the Liffey.

The house itself will require a full refurbishment, but it does have a large feature fireplace in the living room. There's a separate dining room and kitchen downstairs, and two bedrooms upstairs.

51 Lorcan Road, Santry
€475,000
3-bed semi-detached house

This three-bedroom semi in the popular Santry area has everything a growing family might need - spacious living accommodation, three bedrooms and an enormous back garden - ideal for games of football of rugby. There's even an outhouse.

Work will need to be done to bring the house's interior up to modern standards but for those buyers with a bit of imagination and determination, it could be a winner.

4 Temple Place, Ranelagh
€500,000
2-bed terraced house

This is a highly unusual property in the prestigious and bustling Ranelagh area - a double-fronted terraced house with the kitchen/dining room, living room and WC downstairs, and two bedrooms upstairs.

The house is in a fairly poor state of repair so it will require a full refurbishment, but the potential is clear for all to see - especially in such an in-demand area of the city.
