Four on the market: South Dublin homes with a sauna

The current owner of Falconwood bought it in 2012 and set about gutting it, adding expensive features including oak and granite floors, zoned central heating (the BER is B3) and a leisure room with a gym, infinity pool and sauna. That’s on the ground floor and has double doors to the 1.3-acre grounds. Also downstairs there’s a living room, lounge, dining room, office and kitchen. There’s one bedroom on the ground floor and three more upstairs, the main one with an en suite shower. Off the first-floor landing is a roof terrace looking out over the countryside. There’s also a party room on the grounds with a barbecue.
