29 Hollybank Avenue Lower, Ranelagh, Dublin 6

A handsome red-brick Victorian house on a quiet, leafy residential street in Ranelagh, Dublin's most sought-after neighbourhood, fully refurbished in 2026 and offered unfurnished. It suits a diplomatic or corporate household relocating to Dublin with its own furniture: the rooms are clean, neutral and ready to move straight into, with no landlord furniture to work around. Ranelagh village, with its restaurants, cafés, shops and the Luas Green Line, is a short walk away. Ballsbridge and the embassy district, the city centre and St Stephen's Green are all within easy reach by Luas, bus, bike or car. Nearby schools include Gonzaga College, Alexandra College, St Michael's College, St Conleth's College and Sandford Park. Set over three floors (ground, first and attic), the house keeps its period character — original pine floorboards, ornate cornicing, cast-iron fireplaces and a stained-glass front door — and adds a new kitchen, updated bathrooms and fresh finishes throughout. Ground floor: entrance hall with original timber floors and stained-glass door; front reception room with a three-window bay, feature tiled fireplace and cornicing; second reception room through double doors, ideal as a dining room or home office; kitchen and dining room in a bright extension with a vaulted ceiling and skylight — new kitchen with stone-effect worktops, island, steam oven, built-in microwave, induction hob, integrated fridge-freezer plus a second freezer, dishwasher and washing machine; French doors to a private, low-maintenance west-facing garden with a patio; guest WC. Return and first floor: single bedroom overlooking the garden; principal bedroom with a bay window and en-suite shower room; second double bedroom with a period fireplace; family bathroom with a new rain shower, vanity unit and heated towel rail. Attic floor: spiral staircase to a versatile attic room on the top floor, with Velux windows, a built-in desk and storage — ideal as a home office or study.
