The large-scale development, on now mature grounds, first attracted downsizers from some of the grand dames in the surrounding neighbourhood.<\/p>\n<p class=\"c-paragraph paywall \">The origin of the name Shrewsbury \u2013 nothing to do with the shy, pointy-nosed, diminutive creatures \u2013 comes from the old English \u201cthe fortified place of the scrubland\u201d. While most definitely a fortified place, as this development is set behind electric gates, you could hardly call the suburb of Ballsbridge scrubland \u2013 as it is home to the most expensive homes in the country. <\/p>\n<p class=\"c-paragraph paywall \">DNG has just launched Number 61 Shrewsbury to the market, which is listed at \u20ac975,000. The three-bedroom midterrace property extends to 110sq m (1,184sqft) and was purchased as an investment unit by its current owners.<\/p>\n<p class=\"c-paragraph paywall \">Now staged for sale, the red-bricked property in excellent condition has light-filled, well-proportioned rooms. A good-sized livingroom links to a dining space, which in turn leads to a bright, all-white kitchen. To the rear of the living space lies a conservatory\/sunroom that overlooks and opens out on to a city garden via a set of sliding doors, which allows light into the room as does an overhead Velux.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" data-chromatic=\"ignore\" alt=\"Kitchen\" class=\"c-image\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/VMBUY4YWOVG2XARO7APQPX2LMQ.jpg\"   width=\"800\" height=\"533\"\/>Kitchen <img decoding=\"async\" data-chromatic=\"ignore\" alt=\"Dining space\" class=\"c-image\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/YJTKDKCN2FFFPJR2CKB4SWZPRE.jpg\"   width=\"800\" height=\"533\"\/>Dining space <img decoding=\"async\" data-chromatic=\"ignore\" alt=\"Living area\" class=\"c-image\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/XLO3DH7LNFBYVAD5DDRUUL3XNY.jpg\"   width=\"800\" height=\"533\"\/>Living area <img decoding=\"async\" data-chromatic=\"ignore\" alt=\"Conversatory\/sunroom\" class=\"c-image\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/3ATX56RGCVERPKDXNL7PRGKAPQ.jpg\"   width=\"800\" height=\"533\"\/>Conversatory\/sunroom <\/p>\n<p class=\"c-paragraph paywall \">Upstairs are three bedrooms, the principal of which is en suite, and a good-sized family bathroom. <\/p>\n<p class=\"c-paragraph paywall \">Off the conservatory, a maintenance-free cobbled garden is bordered by flower beds, and is a private maintenance-free spot thanks to high walls and mature plantings.
