IF YOU’RE NOT a fan of sweaty bus journeys, packed trains or traffic jams, this newly-renovated terraced house might fit the bill.
Located on Clarence Mangan Road in Dublin 8, the property is five minutes from St Patrick’s Cathedral and 15 minutes from Dame St.
The Tenters area, sitting off South Circular Road, is a long-established residential hub. While there’s a strong community vibe here, most houses date back to the early or mid 1900s, meaning they are small and often dark. Not so with Number 66.
The addition of a two-storey extension to the rear of the house has transformed the property into a home with ample room for a growing family. Adding to this, there are three primary and three secondary schools all within walking distance.
Stretching over 1,280 sq ft, the home is a bright and airy space throughout. The kitchen is optimal for entertaining, with a spacious breakfast bar and a dining table that seats six.
Ceiling-to-floor glass sliding doors in the lounge and kitchen lead to the patio garden, flooding the room with light. The patio has been paved with Indian sandstone and oozes potential for summer barbeques.
A TV room, family room, utility room and shower room complete the ground floor.
Upstairs, the master bedroom features an en-suite bathroom and fitted wardrobes, and there’s one more double and a small single room on this level too.
Disc parking to the front of the property is available for residents, although with everything the city centre has to offer literally on your doorstep, use of the car is likely to take a back seat.
While the life of Clarence Mangan himself, a prolific writer and poet, was said to be ‘miserable,’ the home on the road that bears his name is anything but.

Good product. Well done to them.
Brilliant good news story. Well done. Great to see you bringing the jobs back to dublin. Don’t be minding the begrudgers!
Ha. A unicorn that’s (last line) “trending aggressively to becoming a profitable company”!
@Adrian: only applies to the definition of its valuation not its profitability
@Adrian: Twitter has been around over 15 years and still hasn’t posted a profit. Profitability in Tech is not as important as in traditional businesses
@ForeverFeel1ng: You’re joking right? Twitter surviving for 15 years without making a profit hints that it’s being kept afloat for other reasons, just like loss making newspapers.
@ForeverFeel1ng: Said no investor ever. Twitter is being kept afloat like a newspaper making losses: it’s a great propaganda and political agitation tool.
Intercom, isn’t that a communication device used in shopping centres. A mic and a speaker. The simple things, eh! Wish I thought of it.
@Paddy O Sullivan: That’s a tannoy.
Very interesting and innovative business model!
Finally, a powerful, scalable, efficient, growth supporting, and cost effective management tool / business platform capable of capturing and pulling together all channels of communications between likely participators in the global marketplace seeking the particular product or service and the firm offering same.
Early days, but with 25,000 customers already contributing $50 mil in annual Revenues, outlook is excellent for Intercom. Tenfold increase in customer base is a distinct possibility, which would comfortably justify existing valuations mentioned. Clearly, with $241 m invested already, someone has lots of faith!
Congratulations to all concerned!
And btw what is it? A messaging service wow, probably a advanced data collection service. That’s were the money is, apparently. Well done Irish guys! You’ve sold your soul for a few bob.
@Paddy O Sullivan: Jesus you’re some begrudger. They’re making money and putting Ireland on the tech map globally. Selling their souls? Would you rather them be on the dole? They’re working.
@Paddy O Sullivan: Close…but no cigar. It is customer service software actually with plenty of uses. Instead of whinging about it familiarise yourself with the company and the software it provides
I’m a bit uncomfortable with these valuations on, thus far, unprofitable companies.
The FAANG companies are already responsible for a huge proportion of market valuations. I hope we’re not heading for another dotcom bubble.
I wouldn’t be investing in them, they are swelled with VC money, $50mil Revenue is peanuts and VC money will need to be paid back sometime. Their product is essentially a chatbox which is tiresome for website visitors and very expensive compared to free alternatives (Drift etc)
They will be bust in a couple of years, big valuation comes with a price… But hopefully they will make a lot of moneys for them self’s.
This is the type of homegrown success and entrepnurial spirit we need to foster.
have your say
