Period charm part of the attraction

Taking into consideration the money that will need to be spent here, this five-bed Lissadell, on Gardiner’s Hill is on the upper level for a starter home, but then, it does offer period charm, lots of space and a location that’s second to none.

Kevin Barry of Barry Auctioneers says the house is an executor’s sale and is pitched to sell:

“It’s a great location and there’s the opportunity here for buyers to put their own stamp on it — it was a family home and now the family are all gone, they’re going to sell. A buyer could put a few bob into this and get a super job.”
