A three bedroom terraced house in Dublin 8 that sold for € 165,000 in 2013 and was recently put on the market for € 475,000 has received offers over € 600,000.
6 Woodfield Terrace, a traditional mid-terrace house on Sarsfield Road in Inchicore, has been extensively renovated in recent years and has been finished to a high standard.
