Make the best use of a multi-purpose garage

GARAGES used to be just about cars... and perhaps bikes and whatever else gathered around the house and didn’t go in drawers or the attic. But these days driveways and the street come into play for cars, and garages provide an extra room. Today’s property, a 1950s four-bedroom semi-detached home in Dundrum, is a case in point.

The garage in this property is used as a fourth bedroom, complete with shower unit and WC, and it can also serve as a playroom. And you lose nothing in terms of car space, with the front accommodating off-street parking.

The rest of the 1,506 sq ft home is spacious and there is an extended kitchen and conservatory.
