Pembroke Cottages have stood the test of time since Lord Herbert had them built for local workers in the late 19th century. While retaining its Victorian exterior, No101 is now firmly rooted in the 21st century having been restored, extended and refurbished in recent years.
It has three bedrooms, one bathroom, living room, kitchen/dining room with skylight and recessed lighting, while to the rear is an enclosed seating area with artificial grass, built-in benches and a glass roof. Herbert Park is within walking distance, as is the village of Donnybrook with its selection of restaurants, cafes and delis.
3 Reilly’s Terrace, Cork Street, Dublin
€295,000 Hopkins Ward Estate Agents (01) 496 7954

This brick house was originally a craftsman built for Guinness workers c. 1900. Since then it has been well modernised, not least in the kitchen/living area which was updated five years ago with new fixtures and wood paneling of the sloping ceiling. There are two double bedrooms, a utility room, a bathroom and a gated courtyard at the rear with access to a side lane which is handy for bringing bikes in and taking out bins. It is opposite Coombe Hospital and if you wish to venture further afield, a cobbled driveway at the front offers parking for two cars.
