Property Description

Old Rathfarnham and Terenure are well known for their 1930`s Art Deco houses. 16 Rathfarnham Park, dating from 1935, is a very original example retaining plenty of attractive Art Deco features, ideal for restoration and modernization. High ceilings, interconnecting main reception rooms and original steel frame box windows and French doors make this a very attractive project.
