I'll tell you something though. €355k is an absolute steal for a lakeside property like that. You'd be looking at near 2 mill anywhere within an hour of Dublin. Kitchen can be refitted, even the toilet can be replaced. As long as the broadband infrastructure is there it looks like the perfect permanent Work from home set up.

It’s an excellent house. Someone living in Dublin in a 400k semi, who can wfh and is ok with, or has relations in Donegal, that would be a no brainer. Even has an excellent office space.

Probably it was a b&b or even a cafe at one stage.

There is nothing on Land Direct to show access either.

It’s not really lakeside though is it? Looks like there is a road and then another house directly between this one and the lake. It does mention a 15m strip of private access to the lake, but there’s no pictures of it and no indication on the map of where it is. You’d think it would be something they would make a big deal of if it was a major selling point, but it’s definitely not like the gardens flow down to the lake edge or anything like that.

Yea it's ridiculous. You'd just end up leaving it up all the time. I used to just swing under it most of the time in the bar!

Think there's a hatch on the right that the counter lifts like a bar hatch. Bizzare in a house.

Apologies, if this has already been posted.

But I'm trying to figure out, how they get 'in' to cook. Do they hop over the counter or come through the front window??

Bizarre!

I did laugh at the dressed mannequin in the walk in wardrobe though.

It looks like a waiting room in Dignitas for disappointed architects, dejected interior designers and light fitters that were given the wrong dimension drawings.

And they're all going down that stairway into hell.

That decor, for "good" decor, is as bad as I've seen in a long time!

The swag curtains in the bathrooms :eek:

A fine house on a fabulous site, though.

Decor definitely not my taste, even though I haven't looked at it properly yet.

Must figure out sometime how many times my house would fit into it

Eight bedrooms!

-=al=-

Stunning location, décor is it a bit Liberace-y but for a cool mil, I'd deal with it... for a short time before the practicalities kicked in

Jesus, you really can smell that carpet just by looking at the photo.

That's one of the many overlooked advantages of buying a murder house - the guards rip out the old carpets for you

This house belonged to Daniel O'Donnell at one time.
He sold it in 2007.

That house has been for sale 3-4 times since Daniel sold it. Nearly sure it was up for 800k 2-3 years ago.
Its the last house before the golf course at the end of an island, pretty remote to get to.

I presume that the fireplace doesn't actually burn anything. No sign of a chimney.

I would say its more Nashville chic.

I quickly checked in case I had typed O'Connell by mistake, when I saw your post.

The decor wouldn't be my cup of tea but it is a fantastic looking house in a great location.
