None of these properties look like much now - inside, at least - but they are each waiting for a new owner to come along and bring them to their full potential. Will that new owner be you?
363 Carnlough Road, Cabra
€239,950
2-bed end-of-terrace house
There's plenty of fixing up to be done, but this end-terrace in Cabra presents a great opportunity for an adventurous buyer.
It's a classic two-up, two-down: downstairs you'll find a living room at the front and kitchen/diner at the back, while upstairs are two bedrooms and a bathroom that looks to have been recently fitted.
A sizeable back garden is a real bonus that may offer the option of adding a rear extension, and there's off-street parking and a small lawn at the front as well.

21 Manorfields Walk, Castaheany, Clonee
€350,000
3-bed semi-detached house
Out beyond Blanchardstown, on the outskirts of north-west Dublin, you'll find this handsome semi in Clonee. It's an attractive, modern house that really needs very little done to it, though perhaps a new kitchen and/or bathroom will be a priority.
It looks an ideal family home with a semi-connected living room and dining room downstairs, along with the kitchen and a WC, while upstairs you have three bedrooms - one en suite - and a family bathroom.
An attractive, mature back garden is another great selling point with this house.

107 Walkinstown Road, Walkinstown
€375,000
3-bed semi-detached house
A little bungalow with plenty of character and some period features, for example picture rails and original internal doors.
The house has three good-sized bedrooms, living room, family bathroom and kitchen - as well as generously sized gardens at the front and back of the house. With a bit of imagination, it could make for a beautiful family home.
The location is highly convenient, close to the Walkinstown roundabout and the M52, with nearby bus routes and the Luas Red Line for access to the city centre.

House On 9 Acres, Ballaghstown, Lusk
€460,000 (starting price at auction)
8-bed bungalow
This is an opportunity to own a large detached house and outbuildings on nine acres of land in the north Dublin countryside, close to the village of Lusk and with views across to Lambay Island and as far south as the Dublin Mountains.
Much of the house is a work-in-progress, so it may take someone with experience of construction - or contractors available - to bring the project to completion, but the possibilities look endless.
Owning a plot that size is a dream for many people - and especially in such beautiful surroundings. The house and land will be sold at auction.
