Located just over a kilometre from the city centre, it’s a mid-terraced 1920s-built, three-bed house.

Offering 890 sq of living space, it has an asking price of €145,000. Selling agents Cohalan Downing auctioneers describe it as a blank canvas for a buyer looking for a project close to the city centre.

Verdict: Its potential can be seen by looking at neighbouring houses that have been smartened up and extended.
