The wallpaper isn’t to my taste, but it looks like a house that a family enjoyed life in. And as such, a part of me thinks it’s a little sad that the next owners will likely strip out the wallpaper (as I would myself). The place has character, and it made me smile.

Noo

Its so hideous, i love it!

A bit too colourful for my taste, but it's not the worse I've seen.

In nearly all cases I liked the wallpaper.

I would love to live there. Right next to the park. An easy cycle to the city centre. Great view of the liffey. It's a lovely area.

No, I think the poster visited the link to the Mayfield development in Chapelizod (https://www.ashcroft.ie/mayfield) posted earlier, and then saw the Eastham Heights development (which is in Bettystown) by the same developer on the website and commented on that.

This has been doing the rounds on Twitter. The replies are good too ("Might be Haunted" is my favourite - trying to appeal to the biggest possible market

But there's about 2 ft of footpath outside the front door, a tiny narrow space out the back which looks directly over the Lifffey - so the logistics of doing anything at all, never mind a full renovation, gives me a headache just thinking about it! No space for a skip, for equipment. I honestly don't know where you'd even start!

I guess you could do the same thing the house a few doors down did while the Street view pictures were being taken.

Edit: I'm saving the photo of "landing shower" here, before the old link disappears and it gets lost to time.

That is incredible.

They've kept it in the description though - "Accommodation briefly comprises living room, dining room, kitchen and downstairs bathroom. Upstairs there are 2 bedrooms and shower in hallway/ landing." Just casually thrown in there like. If I hadn't seen the photo I'd have thought it was a typo. Unbelievable

Yep, I pass it regularly, and it could (if you could teleport yourself two years into the future) be a fabulous, if small, house.

But there's about 2 ft of footpath outside the front door, a tiny narrow space out the back which looks directly over the Lifffey - so the logistics of doing anything at all, never mind a full renovation, gives me a headache just thinking about it!

That house featured on Reddit recently too. Got a thread all to itself.

Miriam's house is very much to my taste, though I would change the kitchen because personally I find what's there too clinical or something

Viscount Aggro

She owns the house beside it also.

Miriam's taste suits mine, I think she made a lovely job of the place, and I tip my hat to her, but that's crazy money-overall I mean. That gaff in Malahide for example-a million and a half???

Is there a collective madness in Dublin or what? They're at the same nonsense all over again.

it will easily achieve its asking price , Rathmines is easily in the top three locations close to town along with raneleagh and ballsbridge

But not only is there no pictures of the inside, there's no mention of anything inside the house at all. AMV €60k.

Just how bad is it in there?

that part of the country would be cheap for something like that even everything was fine , miles from any major town , high unemployment part of the country , no high wage jobs anywhere close

Seems a bit random, taken from some places and not others, but replace them. Maybe removed the worst and left the best. As it stands it's a bit shít.

Separately, why would you remove all the downstairs and stairs carpets. Even if valuable, they'll hardly fit somewhere else exactly. And makes the old house harder to sell.
