    €30K and you get to pick your 2 bedroomed apartment. €35K if downsizing to a one bed apartment. (Kids all Gone)

    Nice try, Mr Burglar.

    I don't think he's a burglar, he's looking for single women he can move in with

    Main house has 5 bedrooms. 3 Adults and 2 kids using them all in varying configurations. New baby on the way so layout about to change. 4th baby planned for not too long after that so things will change again.

    Spare house on the land has a single bedroom granny flat layout. Currently no one living in that. Must work on that.

    Hell no - they know what they are getting themselves into by now and are prime targets and fair game.

    3 bedrooms. 2 people half the week and 1 the other half. As the children moved out I took over their rooms with art and craft stuff and generally overflowed. About 8 weeks a year, Christmas, Easter and summer months, there will often be up to 10 people and then it's first come first served, mattresses everywhere and me slaving over the stove. I enjoy that but I also really enjoy having the whole place to myself and not meeting anyone for days. Love it, really.

    4 bed detached. 3 empty rooms. I occupy the other room and I feel the house is overcrowded.

    One bedroom and two people.

    4 bed, just my wife and I. Karl Deeter described single people living in a large house as the equivalent of bed blockers in a hospital.

    Our boys sometimes remember where we live. Nice for them to have the knowledge the bed is always there. My mum still has my room there for me. I moved out 24 years ago.

    Two single chicks (quelle horreur!) in a 3 bed detached.

    The spare room is used for laundry, despite my sister's repeated efforts to stage a hostile takeover and turn it into a dressing room for her.

    37.5 pence, or 7 and 6 in old money

    Holiday home make a up for it as that has only 5 bedrooms....


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,825 ✭✭✭LirW


    3 bedrooms for two adults and two kids. Bog standard end of terrace with a converted attic that's just storage at the moment but could be another unofficial bedroom. Would prefer it as an office space though.

    Three bedrooms all for me, and I'm only there one weekend per month roughly.



    Don't tell the crusties!!

    Oh yeah, forgot that part, so 3 bed semi, me and three turtles. They have their own self contained room mind you.

    Many worry about Artificial Intelligence. I worry far more about Organic Idiocy.

    That doesn't make any sense. Who pays the bills?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,796 ✭✭✭KungPao


    Just me and the wife in a 3 bed/3 wcs. One room is an office, other is a second sitting room/guest bedroom.

    4 people - 3 bedrooms.

    Spare bedrooms are a waste of space - could convert the home office, playroom or cinema room into quasi-bedrooms if we had loads of people staying.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,241 ✭✭✭Lurching


    2 beds, 2 people.
    But it's way too small.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 614 ✭✭✭notsoyoungwan


    4 bed bungalow, 1 person. Was a 5 bed originally when I bought it but I knocked 2 rooms together to make a really fab master suite with dressing room and en-suite. I have a spare room, then the 3rd bedroom has become an office but has a sofabed there if needed, and the 4th is a box room that has become a cloak room/mud room kinda place, but still with room for single fold up bed if needed.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,514 ✭✭✭bee06


    4 bedrooms, 2 adults and a baby. Hopefully at some stage the baby will occupy one of the other bedrooms instead of lying across my spot in the bed.

    let me think about it. My thinking room is in the east wing though, very far away.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 634 ✭✭✭zoe 3619


    Suprised at how many spare rooms most people have.
    3 bedrooms here for myself and two teenagers.Only one bathroom/toilet which tends to be difficult in the moning.

    Single woman(divorced) in 4 bed detached.Family grown but come visit.
    My answer to the folk who would have a problem with it would be..
    "When I was working 60 hours and raising a family,saving and scrimping so that I could buy my home, I actually don't recall you knocking on my door to see if I needed any help or assistance"
    I have more time now and enjoy my home so much..I've earned it!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,215 ✭✭✭bottlebrush


    single - have 4 bed detached house. makes up for the years I lived in a tiny bedsit (about same size as my boxroom) in Dublin with shared bathroom so I could save for a house. I like to have the space now for my sister her husband and five children to stay when they come visit and I also have friends stay over a bit. intend to trade down to a smaller house - but not quite yet.
