A man and a woman stand outside the front gate of number 6 Linden Lea Park, off Glenalbyn Road in Stillorgan, a white-painted, pebble-dashed bungalow with metal windows and timber detailing on the triangular gable. The garden, a square of lumpy, rubbly clay, is defined by a pebble-dashed wall with redbrick capping. In line with the gate is an integrated garage with wooden doors, and in the window to the right there is a SOLD sign.
It is 1950, and the buyers are the Cox family: this charming black and white photograph is among “a few bits and bobs” in a suitcase that the current owners of number 6 found when they were clearing out the attic to do a thorough insulation job in 2010.
“The house has suited us very well, says the current owner, “from when we bought it as a couple in 2008 to when we grew into it as a family of five.” They have decided to move, rather than build, for more space, and have put their home on the market through Beirne & Wise with an asking price of €765,000. Previous owners had converted the garage to create a wide, south-facing living/diningroom and had opened up the interior to give a largely open-plan space.
