A Dublin home which was designed by celebrity architect Dermot Bannon is up for grabs, hitting the market at a surprising €495,000.
The glorious semi-detached home in Ballybrack, Co Dublin, was built in the 70s by Tommy and Ann Breen, who raised their six children in the stunning south Dublin location.
After 40 years of domestic bliss, the Breen family turned to Dermot and his RTE show for help, as they looked to adapt the property to better fit their needs.

Captured in series three, episode three of Room to Improve, Dermot and his team adapted the family home to provide better accessibility after Tommy’s health problems meant he needed a wheelchair.
The converted property features a reception room which was subsequently converted into a large double downstairs bedroom along with en suite facilities
The home boasts an open-plan family dining area as well as gated off-street parking which leads to wheelchair access to the property.
