1 Lanesborough Crescent, Finglas, Dublin 11, D11EH57

Positioned on the ground floor of this established development, no. 1 Lanesborough Crescent is a nicely secluded two-bedroom corner apartment with front and rear outdoor space and designated parking. The property is in need of a full refurbishment throughout, but it offers good proportions, a practical layout and a clear opportunity for a buyer to create a comfortable home in a convenient Dublin 11 location. What should not be overlooked is the apartment’s potential. It sits privately on the corner, is not directly overlooked to the front or rear, has enclosed outdoor spaces and a generous living area with scope to improve. A short walk from the designated parking area leads to the apartment entrance, through a small enclosed front area stepped down from the front path. This space is walled and railed and offers room for planting or outdoor seating. The front door opens into an entrance lobby with solid timber flooring and a glass block feature wall, creating separation between the entrance and the main living space. The living room is positioned to the front and is a generous open space with a bay-style overhang window drawing natural light into the room. It can function as both a living and dining area and connects through to the kitchen, which is positioned off the main room. The kitchen is dated but serviceable, with tiled flooring, tiled splashback, oven, hob, extractor hood, sink and drainer. There is also space for a fridge freezer, washing machine and slimline dishwasher. Additional mechanical ventilation is in place. The apartment requires cosmetic upgrading throughout. This is most visible in the living space, where service access cupboards are present on opposite walls. While not attractive in their current form, they provide access to important plumbing and service points and could be addressed as part of a wider refurbishment plan. A rear hallway leads to the bathroom and both bedrooms. The bathroom is fully tiled and includes a bath, wc and wash hand basin, with concealed service access beneath a marble-style counter. The hot press contains twin hot water storage tanks and a pump for the shower. Bedroom one is positioned to the rear and is a good sized double bedroom with built-in wardrobes. Double-opening patio doors lead onto the rear veranda. This private and secure outdoor area is a real advantage for a ground floor apartment and could be used for seating, planting or as a quiet enclosed space off the bedroom. Bedroom two is also positioned to the rear and includes a built-in wardrobe. Both bedrooms have recently fitted electric radiators. Externally, the development includes designated parking, fob access to bin storage and a communal enclosed garden/play area to the rear. The apartment’s corner position gives it a stronger sense of privacy than many similar ground floor units, while the front and rear outdoor areas add further flexibility. No. 1 Lanesborough Crescent should appeal to buyers who can see beyond the current condition and understand refurbishment works. This is a property with a clear requirement for investment, but it also offers good proportions, privacy, outdoor space and the opportunity to create a comfortable home in a very accessible Dublin location. For purchasers seeking a project with clear potential, this is a value-led opportunity where the work required is evident, but so too is the upside. Also to note, the property was previously rented at €1,320 per month and was subject to rent cap restrictions. The tenant was served notice on the basis that the landlord intended to sell the property. The annual block management fees are understood to be €1,580.04 per annum, which should be factored into any rent/value assessment. We look forward to hearing from you.
