Inside TV star Muireann O'Connell's new dream home in Dublin
Ireland AM star Muireann is thrilled to get the keys to her new home, a beautiful period three-bedroom mid-terrace house.
The terraced three bed house is in a Dublin suburb
Take a look at the dream house broadcaster Muireann O'Connell has bought after falling in love with it.
The beautiful period three-bedroom mid-terrace house in a Dublin suburb was on the market for €675,000, but it's likely to have sold for more than €700,000.
Ireland AM star Muireann is engaged to Phil Manzor, who is a high flying radio executive, and the current content controller for Dublin radio stations FM104 and Q102.
Limerick woman Muireann has previously complained how she struggled to find a place of her own, having rented for years in the Stoneybatter area of the capital.

She once described her years of house hunting as a 'nightmare', and said that properties the couple bid on had gone for €100,000 over their asking price.
The brochure for her new property, the exact location of which we are not revealing, described it as being well-proportioned accommodation over three floors with private front and rear gardens.
The house has an open plan kitchen/dining room which opens to the main living room.

The back garden has rear access though double gates, a central lawned area, brick built shed and patio area finished with sandstone patio slabs.
Muireann (42) shares Limerick connections with Phil as he went to university in her home town.
He grew up in Co Offaly and was content and programming director with Today FM for just over a year and a half until he parted ways with the station.

Prior to that, he was content director at youth station Spin for four years, and before that held a similar position with a couple of Scottish radio stations.
The couple got engaged in Co Kerry in 2021.
'It's a strange thing because, yes, I'm a public figure but I'm just a person who happens to be on the telly,' Muireann once told the Sunday World, when she admitted she didn't want to talk too openly about her fiancé, describing him as her 'housemate'.
'If I was in a different job I think I'd be the exact same way.
The living room.
'I don't think ever in my entire life, other than with friends, have I talked about who I'm going out with.'
Muireann shared pictures on social media from her new home this week.
'The bathroom does need a little bit of work but I think once we get the bathroom done we can then just move in and any other work that needs to be done we'll do while we're here,' she explained, while showing a picture of the bathroom.
The kitchen
'Thank you to the lovely previous owners and to everyone who helped us to get here. Ye are the best.
'We've been terrible at this process. God, house buying has been a slog. I know it's not easy. For anyone going through it, much love. It can be soul destroying. But bloody hell, do I feel good today.'
