Dublin Fixer-Uppers: 5 of the best property projects to get stuck into

Every Monday, we take a look at Perfect Property's website to find those houses that may be a little unloved, but rich with possibilities.

As usual, we have five for you - in Cabra, Ballyfermot, Perrystown, Stillorgan and Walkinstown.

262 Saint Attracta Road, Cabra
€285,000
2-bed terraced house

What a great location - close to Mount Bernard Park, the Royal Canal towpath and the local shops and cafés of both Cabra and Phibsborough.

The house has good outdoor space, a pretty standard layout inside and probably doesn't require a huge amount of work, unless you were planning a major upgrade. A lick of paint, maybe some new flooring and you should be good to go.

1 Colepark Drive, Ballyfermot
€220,000
3-bed terraced house

This is already a well-loved family home in a handy location in Ballyfermot, and close to Chapelizod village as well. Kids and adults alike will love the large, private back garden, which is not overlooked.

While already in move-in condition, the potential is there for new owners to come in and put their own stamp on the house if they wish.

3 Limekiln Lane, Perrystown
€375,000
3-bed bungalow

This attractive house definitely makes the most of all available space - built as a bungalow, there's now an extensive loft conversion that is being used for bedrooms and a home office.

It's in great condition already, but we're including it because of the potential lurking out back: a separate outbuilding is currently being used as a photographic studio, but it could potentially be put to all sorts of uses - subject to planning, of course.

99 Marsham Court, Stillorgan
€474,950
3-bed semi-detached house

A great south Dublin location, close to Stillorgan village, Dundrum, Sandyford Business Park and the M50, and an extremely well-kept house in a quiet residential area.

Again, 99 Marsham Court is ready to move into, at which point new owners can choose to update and upgrade at their leisure. Outside, there's a well-kept back garden with a sizeable shed for extra storage.

4 St Mary's Crescent, Walkinstown
€399,950
3-sed end-of-terrace house

This handsome house is deceptively spacious - a large, country-style kitchen in the rear extension is one of the highlights, along with two reception rooms, large bedrooms and an extensive back garden.

Location-wise, the house will appeal to those working at Crumlin Children's Hospital, while it's just a short stroll to Pearse Park or Crumlin village.
