For a home that’s so close to the city centre, it stands on a quiet street near Griffith Park and is one of a row of redbrick façades. Step inside, and you’ll discover a well renovated home that marries old and new having seen a complete renovation in 2020 by London and Dublin based firm, Alison Rea Architects.
