IF BEING BY the sea while still having easy access to the city centre is your dream living situation, Tycanna might just be the home for you.

Originally built around 1930, 129 Dublin Road was extensively rebuilt and refurbished 15 years ago, and was then further extended in 2010. It now has five bedrooms and three bathrooms.

Despite its refurbishments, Tycanna retains its original character and charm through 9ft tall ceilings, ornate coving, cast iron radiators, bay windows and parquet solid oak timber floors.

A striking black and white check floor leads from the hallway to the living room, which sits to its right. French doors and a bay window fill the room, which features a cast iron open fire and solid oak timber floors, with light.

To the left of the hall is the lounge, which boats another large bay window and an electric fire.

The utility room provides further storage, while a study room across the hall has the potential to be transformed into a sixth bedroom. An en-suite bathroom separates the study from the fifth bedroom, which has direct access to the rear garden through a patio door.

Lack of natural light is no issue at Tycanna, with an atrium roof light on the landing. Upstairs, there are four bedrooms, providing excess space for growing families. An en-suite bathroom extends from the master bedroom, with a family bathroom directly across the hall.
