Dublin Homes: 5 of the best 'fixer-upper' projects on the housing market

This week's selection of 'fixer-uppers' are mostly at the lower end of the market - two-and-three bed terraces that could be ideal starter homes or trade-ups from a small apartment.

We also have a stunning period home in beautiful Blackrock.

25 Casement Green, Finglas
€250,000
3-bed terraced house

This is a three-bed end-terrace with a small porch extension to the side and a small back garden - there's also ample space for off-street parking at the front of the house.

Inside, there's a hallway as well as two reception rooms, a spacious kitchen/diner and a downstairs bathroom, while upstairs you'll find three double bedrooms and the main family bathroom.

The house is double-glazed with oil-fired central heating, while the location offers easy access to the M50, M1, the Finglas Road and local shopping in Finglas village and Charlestown shopping centre.

15 Rialto Street, Rialto
€300,000
2-bed end-of-terrace house

Located in the up-and-coming Dublin 8 neighbourhood of Rialto, this is an appealing red-brick end-terrace which has been extended to the rear.

The ground floor consists of a small sitting room, an open-plan hallway/living room, kitchen, utility room and bathroom. Both bedrooms are on the first floor.

Convenience is key here, with the Luas Red Line close at hand and the city centre a 30-minute walk away. St James's Hospital and The Coombe are both nearby, making this area an ideal choice for healthcare workers.

5 Woodvale Crescent, Clonsilla
€320,000
3-bed semi-detached house

This bright, modern semi-detached house is in Dublin 15, adjacent to Hartstown Park and not far from the Blanchardstown Centre and the N3.

The ground floor consists of a hallway, living room and kitchen diner; these rooms are connected by French doors for a open-plan feel. Three bedrooms and a family bathroom are upstairs.

Outside, there's off-street parking and a small garden - with two palm trees! - at the front, with a larger garden and block-built shed/garage to the rear.

133 Larkhill Road, Whitehall
€320,000
2-bed terraced house

Just off the Swords Road in Whitehall, in a quiet residential area with a large grassy area just round the corner, is this mid-terrace with a large kitchen/diner/sitting room to the rear.

There's also a small but cosy living room at the front of the house, as well as off-street parking and a good-sized back garden with patio which could potentially accommodate an extension.

Two upstairs bedrooms and a bathroom complete the package here.

55 Rock Road, Blackrock
€480,000
3-bed terraced house

There's real charm to this period property in the highly desirable seaside suburb of Blackrock. With its pretty exterior, high ceilings and striking features like fireplaces and stained glass, the property looks ideal for a buyer in search of something special.

There's not much outside space but the house does have a spacious interior - an entrance hall, front sitting room, rear kitchen/diner and WC on the ground floor; three bedrooms and a shower room upstairs.

Meanwhile the location could hardly be better: Blackrock Park is immediately across the road with Booterstown DART station less than 10 minutes' walk away.
