The whole place looks as though it's in a corridor.

I lived in that area for a bit.......it's actually the garage (although only slightly bigger than a corridor!)

I love how the further towards the back you get, the less they've even tried to disguise the fact that it's a garage. All it's missing is the shuttered roll up door.

Where is the fridge? I see a washing machine, microwave and small cooker but no fridge.

I used to live in a similar place in Renmore. Again a converted garage. The fridge was next to the shower which made a handy place to leave your shampoo. One of those half height fridges. Thankfully the water from the shower never met the electrics from the fridge

When you think of building regulations how is it even possible. You can't even have a lightswitch in a bathroom. Does no one inspect rented accommodation?

it does look like there is no fridge or presses, maybe it it is so cold that a fridge would not be needed

Judging by this thread alone, it would appear not. Damned shame

Teeney house. Toilet off the kitchen. Converted bedroom door is glass - no privacy. Obligatory bra hanging on the door

Nice bra in the bedroom. I wonder if the landlord took photos without the present tenant's knowledge. Wouldn't someone put their bra away first?

Where is that door going in the bathroom ?

Have to assume it is a sliding door of some sort

snubbleste

The tenant advertiser clearly lives there. It's tiny!
The 'bathroom' door would have to be sliding, otherwise how would there be privacy?

LynnGrace

I couldn't figure the door either. Sliding seems to be the explanation alright.

'Pic 8' Somebody forgot to close the door before installing the toilet

In Dublin at the moment when you're arranging a viewing, you're given a time and that's that. Like it or lump it. Sign of the demand out there!

You're lucky if the letting agent even takes your call these days.

We just moved and the only places we got to view were places where the landlord handled the letting themselves.

Yeah, a lot don't reply but I have had some luck with agents. I have a viewing today arranged through an agent.

I think possibly agents might just invite, say, the first 50 or so who reply. They'll likely find someone out of that amount, and probably don't want the place swarming with people. It's so competitive out there that they would probably find enough people in less than an hour!

yawhat!

Lot of fridge and cooking space.

Is that couch doubling as the bed?

homemadecider

That one is genuinely gobsmacking.

And with a contract for a Year? That would certainly test the limits of any humans patience.....and not even room for a decent crying chair to sit in while you reflect on your bad decision 6 months on

yawhat!

No oven. crikey.

Would be kinda romantic, you and your partner in bed, warming yer toes by the........hob.

There must be a little table in the middle of the room (seems to be a vase with a flower in, sitting on something), I'd say it'd be impossible to do anything other than sleep in the place without climbing over stuff! And the fridge blocked by the bed!! Absolute horror of a place, can't imagine living there for a week never mind a minimum of a year!

Mince Pie

It really is a suicide box. I'm surprised there aren't more people going on demented rampages considering the amount of these places up for rent.
How are you supposed to get to the fridge? I mean its there but where do you move the bed/couch to open the door. Theres hardly the floor space to move.

You could stick your rashers on from bed and have the smell of bacon wafting over you as you snooze, dead handy.
