I'd say the price is that high because it is sitting on 7 acres. But yeah, €100k wouldn't do much when it comes to doing up that house.

Manhattan property prices are just insane. It is nice but not €16.8M nice
You would think for $17m it would have a view of Central Park but the view the balcony does have looks pretty boring for New York
Interior Designer: And what style would you like your house to be decorated in?
Owner: All of them! Give me a dozen themes under the one roof!

Looks like the selling agent put a fake image in the window in picture 33.
Could be me, but it just doesn't look right
Both 32 & 33 have weird outside pictures.
jaysis this thread used to have 30+ new posts most days and now it barely scrapes 4 or 5. What have you done Boards
Would be difficult lighting conditions to capture the view and detail inside. I guess it's a "composite" but looks poorly done and quite artificial. I've seen this a lot in real estate photography though.
Looks to me like they tried to go for the look of two "old" buildings linked by that glass structure in the middle, only for the interior architect to completely miss the point with all the elegance of an overweight albatross tumbling a$$ over teakettle over a mud flat after misjudging his landing...
Jesus those pictures have given me a headache. Its a great site, and a lovely spot, but that house is an absolute mess. I'd be curious as to what they are charging for it as Barna is pricy as it is
It is very weird- the exterior shots are clearly photoshopped, but they don't even show the view from the glass yoke in the middle. I would imagine the land between the house and the sea will get developed eventually so that would definitely put me off. The luxury ocean liner deck look of the glass thing is fairly gack too.
On a more general point- the multiple split level thing annoys me- Bannon is a big fan of it but I think with ageing populations as well as just ease of ovement the less splitting of levels the better!
I know someone from my town who built a house with loads of needless split levels as the house was built on a perfectly level site and now they are trying to sell their house because they aren't able for the steps any time they want to move around the house.
I know this area well from cycling around there on the bike, the location is incredible. If you were working in Dublin 2-3 days a week then this would be excellent. There's a beautiful stone wall under that plaster, the house next door and most of the houses in the area have removed the plaster/pebble dash.
Very cheap for the area, needs some work, no mention of a bathroom, septic tank or sewage connection. If there is none then you'd have to sacrifice the smaller front bedroom for a bathroom. An extension out the back would be no issue. Another €50-100K would make this into a very nice house.

Romantic views and possibly a direct hike up from the back garden to Mullaghcleevaun, my favourite mountain in Wicklow. But no heating (apart from fireplaces), no running water and no sewerage, not even a septic tank 😮
I'm kind of curious what the former residents did when they needed to go to the toilet? Were did waste/waste water go?
It's a nice location but there's no way I'd pay €210k for it. You wouldn't have much change left out of €150k- €200k after you've renovated the place. You might also have problems installing a septic tank depending on where the well is located. The site is only 0.3 of an acre and that includes the house so it may be difficult to get the septic tank far enough away from the well etc. The field to the rear of the house is on quite a slope so it would be a major job to try put in a percolation area there.

Fisheye lens screwing things up.
I mean..... do people even look at the photos they're uploading?
If you've taken a shot like that, and it looks like you've melted a duvet all over the floor (being kind about it), would you not consider taking the shot again? Or just not using it???
You would have to buy the other .3 acre to put in a water treatment system/percolation area, then probably move the well. Having a percolation area uphill from a wts tank isn't a problem - we have that. If it put the well 'below' it though, or too close, the well would have to be moved.
well you would if you are normal, but, you know ...
Bill Cullen's House fairly Close to the M7. Not to my taste to be honest. I'd say that bathroom would smell!(It maybe his former home).

Thought he went broke years ago, obviously not if he still owns thay
That has been on sale for a good while now. Is it even still Bills house?
Edited my post to take this into account!
Also I believe the contents are up for auction also.
That's a lot of money... 🤔🥺
Penny Apples Print still on the wall. Bit of a personal piece.
A developer will probably throw up a lot of apartments there. The price seems reasonable for the location and the site.
I was reading an article at the weekend about the various pieces / contents that are to be sold.
