We've tightened what earns a Pursue. A home now needs a published valuation, a strategy that still makes money after real running costs and lender stress tests, and no listing problems that would stop a mortgage. You'll see fewer Pursues, and each one has been checked harder.

A home like no other, boasting a stunning hidden oasis to the rear of the property, a private sanctuary offering the perfect setting for relaxation, entertaining, and making the most of outdoor living.
Featuring a heated swimming pool, a versatile garden room with a bar and home office, and numerous seating areas, this is certainly the standout feature of this beautiful residence.
Internally, the property is bursting with character and charm. Having been modernised, loved and well-cared for by its current owners, this home will appeal to a range of buyers.
Offering flexible accommodation, the kitchen is large enough to incorporate living and dining areas along with an additional shower room on the ground floor.
Three well-portioned bedrooms and a family bathroom occupy the first floor. The outside space has to be seen to be believed.
An extensive, beautifully landscaped, south-facing cottage-style garden provides an exceptional setting for those seeking privacy, security, and something truly special. Owner’s perspective: No.
28 has been that home for us. We have lived at No. 28 for ten years but never did we think that we would be there that long!
But for the past ten years, this 100-year-old house has been far more than an address.
It has been the place where we celebrated our first home together, where we raised our two little girls, and where countless friends and family stepped through the door and instantly felt at ease.
What makes this house truly extraordinary is its atmosphere.
Despite being in the heart of the city, it truly feels like a hidden oasis, peaceful and private, with a large extensive back garden and yet you are only 5 minute walk from Ballyhackamore and 3miles from the city centre!
You wake in the morning to birdsong, surrounded by mature greenery, and it is easy to forget that you are still in the city.
There is warmth in the walls of this house, the kind that only time and love can create.
With the expansive gardens and additional plot at the back there is ample room for a large extension if desired. No.
28 has given us an incredible lifestyle: nature, city energy, accessibility, and community, all at once. We will leave No.
28 with full hearts, deeply grateful for everything it has given us and we will miss our early morning espresso listening to the birds while in our heated outdoor pool enjoying the early morning sun!
