eh, what?

The sitting room/BBQ room is an extremely rare and unique room with an indoor barbeque, which was imported from South Africa and built into the wall.

I thought they were indicating it had been featured already.

I'd say they've only displayed half the rooms.

Imagine the smell? You'd never get rid of it completely.

Irish company selling South African fire boxes (‘boks’ in Afrikaans) for indoor BBQing. Seems to be a thing.

That Kilkenny house is stunning. Though was surprised that for 3.2m all you get is 10 acres of land with it. I doubt the original estate was that small, normally these kinds of houses come with 100 acres+ so Im guessing some previous owner sliced it up and sold most of it off.

Luggala estate in Wicklow has a similar brewing history to the Kilkenny house with the Guinness family living there. It was on the market back in 2017 and it came with 5,000 acres which included a private lake, several mountains and a herd of over 100 wild deer grazing away right outside the house, you could be dining on venison all year round. Denis O'Brien was said to be interested in buying it but then his fortunes turned south. The State had the chance to buy it and make the national park it bordered even bigger but they refused it. Bono also tried to put a consortium to buy it but failed to raise enough money.

In the end a reclusive Italian Count who comes from nobility in MIlan bought it at a knockdown price, said to be around half the asking price of 28 million. He is a hedge fund owner and his other gaff is a 4,500 acre estate in Norfolk.

Count Luca Rinaldo Contardo Padulli di Vighignolo is his name, this is him in his hunting gear

So, is this the house that you've just put on the market? Nice!

If that was my house I'd never sell it! We are moving to Kilkenny, unfortunately our budget doesn't quite stretch to €3.25m

It's 5 mins walking distance to the centre of Kilkenny, that's one of the big advantages it has going for it. I think 10 acres is pretty impressive in an urban setting!

A lovely part of the country, Kilkenny. I don't live there, but often thought I would like to.

This is not likely.

Not likely in the sense that the Virgin Mary will appear before Jeffrey Donaldson and proclaim him 'a very naughty boy' live on The View or England winning the Euros.

The second one became a bit more likely today...
