Exterior read

This traditional semi-detached house occupies a generous corner site bounded by Sallynoggin Park and Sallynoggin Road. The property benefits from expansive grounds and a bright aspect, making it an appealing project for buyers seeking space with future expansion possibilities.

What stands out

  • Generous corner plot offering extensive front and side lawn areas with strong potential for extension (subject to planning permission).
  • Semi-detached configuration provides greater privacy and reduced shared wall exposure compared to mid-terrace homes.
  • Upgraded uPVC double-glazed windows and rendered exterior finish present a tidy baseline appearance.
  • Favorable residential location off Sallynoggin Park, offering proximity to local amenities and key transit routes.
  • Existing porch/side extension adds useful internal lobby space and entry buffer.

Watch for

  • Adjoins Sallynoggin Road (L1028), which may introduce noticeable ambient traffic noise and localized dust.
  • Substantial lawn areas and established boundary hedging require continuous outdoor maintenance.
  • Visible overhead utility wiring anchored near the roofline creates aesthetic clutter and potential maintenance hurdles.
  • Aging roof tiles and exposed masonry chimney stack require close physical inspection for mortar deterioration and flashing integrity.
  • Front plot configuration currently lacks a dedicated off-street paved driveway, prioritizing lawn space over private parking.

Indicative range only — €558,000–€682,000.

We don't have enough comparable sales on this street or nearby to value this home independently, so this range is a wide sanity-check centred on the €585,000 asking price — not confirmed against the market.

This compares the asking price only. It cannot see condition, interior, garden or aspect — a home priced low may need work. Use it to shortlist, not to decide. Comparable data here is limited, so this is indicative.

3 items
  1. Commission a pre-purchase survey from a chartered building surveyormust · €500–€1.1k

    The most important spend before you sign, and the only thing that examines the actual fabric of the building. Nothing in an online report replaces it.

  2. Get a SEAI Home Energy Assessment and a retrofit quoteshould · €180–€300

    Turns a vague "needs work" into a real number you can bid against.

  3. Ask whether the ground floor has been tested for pyrite (IS 398)should · €400–€900

    Relevant for homes built in the Leinster region during the 2000s boom.

Get your solicitor to

5 items
  1. Instruct a solicitor for title, planning and local authority searchesmust · €2.2k–€4.5k

    Confirms the seller owns what they are selling and that everything built has permission.

  2. Get Certificates of Compliance with planning and Building Regulations for any extension or attic conversionmust

    Unauthorised work can block your mortgage and becomes your problem the day you close.

  3. Check the Local Property Tax band is correctly declared and paid upmust

    An under-declared band follows the property to you, not the seller.

  4. Review the nearby planning applications in fullmust

    What gets built next door affects both how you live there and what you sell it for.

  5. Confirm the boundaries on the title map match what you were shownshould

    Boundary disputes are slow, expensive and surprisingly common.

?

Ask the seller or agent

4 items
  1. Ask for the BER certificate and the advisory report that goes with itmust

    The advisory report lists the specific upgrades recommended for this house.

  2. Ask why they are selling and how long they have owned itmust

    Free, and it tells you more about the property and your negotiating room than any document.

  3. Check the BER certificate has not expiredshould

    A BER lasts ten years. An expired cert will not support a green mortgage rate application.

  4. Ask whether the property has ever flooded, and about any insurance refusalsshould

    A seller need not volunteer problems, but must not misrepresent when asked. So ask, in writing, through your solicitor.

Do this on your viewing

5 items
  1. View a second time at a different time of daymust

    Traffic, noise, parking and light all change. Most buyers only ever see a house once.

  2. Look for Japanese knotweed in the garden and along boundariesshould

    It is a genuine mortgage blocker in Ireland, and treatment runs for several years.

  3. Run every tap, flush every toilet, open every windowshould

    Water pressure, drainage and rotten frames are expensive and easy to miss in a ten-minute viewing.

  4. Get into the attic and look under the stairsshould

    Insulation depth, damp and the age of the wiring are all visible where nobody looks.

  5. Do a radon test if you buy, or ask if one has been doneworth it · €30–€50

    Ireland is a European radon hotspot. Testing is cheap and remediation is usually straightforward.

Sort with your lender or broker

3 items
  1. Confirm your approval covers this specific property and pricemust · €150–€200

    Approval in principle is not a loan offer. The lender still has to value and approve this house.

  2. Budget for stamp duty and check what other costs land at closingmust

    Stamp duty is 1% up to €1m, 2% between €1m and €1.5m, and 6% above that. It is the largest cost buyers forget, and on a new build it is charged on the price excluding VAT.

  3. Ask your broker what the rate would be at B3, and about the Home Energy Upgrade Loanworth it

    The green discount plus a low-rate upgrade loan can cover a good share of the work.
