This three-bed redbrick terraced property on Oakville Terrace, New Street, Limerick city, dates back to the early 1900s, and has been completely renovated.

The property boasts a B3 energy rating, qualifying the property for a preferable green mortgage rate on offer by some of the best-known lenders in the mortgage market.

Upon entering, you'll be welcomed by a nostalgic ambiance, highlighted by original features such as ornate fireplaces, window shutters, and hardwood floors. These timeless elements preserve the home's heritage, creating a warm and character-filled atmosphere. Recent upgrades include rewiring, replumbing, internal insulation, and the installation of new double-glazed Aluclad windows, enhancing the property's energy efficiency.

The rear extension brings a modern touch, offering an open-plan kitchen/lounge area that floods the home with natural light. The exterior features an attractive redbrick facade, a walled yard, and a wrought iron gate. The spacious entrance hallway sets the elegant tone that continues throughout the home.

To the left, an inviting living room boasts an ornate fireplace. French doors lead to the modern kitchen, which overlooks the rear garden and features handleless units and an induction hob with a built-in extractor. The utility room, located off the kitchen, provides additional storage and space for a washing machine and dryer.

The rear extension houses a bright lounge area with high ceilings, a contemporary electric fireplace, and large sliding glass doors that open onto the rear patio, seamlessly blending indoor and outdoor living. The ground floor also includes a fully equipped bathroom with an electric shower and two spacious storage units off the lounge.

Upstairs, you'll find three well-appointed bedrooms, two doubles and a generously sized single. The main bathroom is fully tiled and equipped with modern sanitary fittings. The rear garden is a true gem, bordered by an old stone wall for privacy.

The mostly lawned garden is perfect for children to play. The south-facing rear of the house and garden enjoy uninterrupted sunlight throughout the day.
