10 Murrays Cottages, Dublin 10, Inchicore, Dublin 8, D10DF40

Tucked away in a quiet cul-de-sac in the heart of Murray Cottages, this distinctive home offers a rare opportunity to enjoy city living within a setting that feels both private and full of character. Originally a railwayman’s cottage, the property was extensively renovated in 2008 and thoughtfully reimagined into a charming dormer-style residence. The works carried out at that time were substantial and carefully considered, including the reconstruction of the front portion of the house with insulated concrete floors, the addition of a new roof and dormer, and the installation of Norwegian windows and doors throughout. As part of the redesign, the entrance was repositioned, improving the overall flow and functionality of the home. Inside, the property strikes a lovely balance between cottage charm and modern practicality. A vaulted ceiling creates an immediate sense of space on arrival, while a series of motorised Velux windows flood the interior with natural light. The kitchen is fitted with contemporary units, generous worktop space, a tiled splashback and modern appliances, creating a bright and welcoming hub at the centre of the home. There are two highly versatile principal rooms at ground floor level, each with its own fireplace and each capable of serving a range of uses depending on a purchaser’s needs. To the front, one room is currently arranged as a cosy reading and living space, with built-in bookshelves and an attractive fireplace adding warmth and character. To the rear, the main living room forms the heart of the house, centred around a multi-fuel stove and opening through large sliding glass doors to the rear yard area, making it an inviting space in which to relax or entertain. Upstairs, the dormer conversion creates a bright attic room with fitted storage and a wide rear-facing window that draws in excellent natural light throughout the day. A separate WC and wash hand basin at this level adds further convenience. The property has also benefited from extensive insulation and a number of practical upgrades over the years, including new joists to parts of the ground floor, a full rewire with recessed lighting, and gas-fired central heating, all contributing to comfort and efficiency behind the scenes. Outside, the house is set behind its own gate and enjoys a front entrance yard which adds to its cottage appeal and provides a pleasant, welcoming approach to the property. To the rear is a further enclosed yard accessed from the main living room. Please note that this rear yard does not form part of the registered title and is not included in the sale. The property nonetheless benefits from its own outdoor space to the front, which remains an important part of its overall appeal. The setting, while discreet, is remarkably well connected, with Heuston Station, the Phoenix Park and the M4 motorway all within easy reach. Although the railway line runs to the rear of the house, trains slow on approach to Heuston Station and the property remains private to both front and back. For many buyers, the convenience of the location together with the individuality of the home will prove a very worthwhile combination. Free on-street parking is available nearby, and while the entrance to the cul-de-sac allows for plenty parking for more than one car. Accommodation Ground Floor Bathroom – 1.72m x 1.77m = 3.04 sq.m.
