Smear, what a name for a house. I wonder if the houses either side are called Sluice and Shart
Handy for a bit of waterboarding foreplay.
Elephantiasis of the nutsack?
I wonder was it once used a a work from home hairdressers?

Nice house in many ways, but there'd be a strong smell o'shite off them fields for several weeks of the year. My attention was drawn to two things, one positive, one negative.
In pic. 38 there's an ingenious method of storing Christmas lights.
But what's with the shower and WHB in pic 24? I like to save time myself in the morning with a very quick shower and wash, but I never thought of this piece of brilliance.
With every summer having a hose pipe ban lately, you'd get one cold week before the proper weather, or one alright week after, but covered in midgies!
Re: house is Smear, I'm getting vertigo looking at it, inside and out... it looks all over the place to me!
Wonder what decade it was last filled with water?
Sorry for looking at it now🙄
In all fairness who’d move there?
all I hear about Longford is troubling travellers constantly feuding
It's probably 20 mins to longford town, but that's not necessarily a good thing 😂
"Oh captain my captain!"
If I was a lotto winner and was keeping a place in Ireland I'd like that. But have a sneaky suspicion I'd be spending the purchase price on up grading it to modern standards.
There a lot of damp showing on some of the ceilings.
Swimming pool would no doubt need some remedial works, if not relining completely. But would make for a brilliant summers days!
I thought so but was guessing. How much would that normally go for? Is it near anything?
Completely overpriced!
It's a nice house, but prices seem to be random all over the country.
I am no longer able to decide if €125,000 is an okay price for that or overpriced by about €45k..
Do you mean the one eyed woman washing her hair, or the sperm to either side? :)
This one has a bit of wtf painting on the wall in picture 6.
Wondering do they mean with all furniture or bits and pieces within the place, nothing will be cleared out, sold as is.
Usually when they say 'sold as is,' its been left in absolute sh!te with a large skip and a ton of repairs required. That actually looks grand, but I wonder is there some sort of other issue with it
All houses are 'sold as seen'. If you discover something is broken, then that's on you, the buyer. That's why people get engineering surveys done on houses so that they don't get any unexpected surprises.
At first, I thought the house had everything. But then I realised the workshop is a totally different building. Assumed it was once the noisiest house in the world if there were boat engines being worked on down the hallway.
One of the showers looks to have a wooden frame door. That's bizarre. Some of the plastering of some ceilings is that crappy old custom thing from the 70s and 80s (can't remember the name of it). The kitchen has the smallest amount of tiles allowable but turns into carpet way too soon. That aside, it's nice and pretty decent for the money.
That's actually not bad at all I was expecting an absolute sh1theap on the inside after all the photos of the outside at the start.
I’ve never seen a house listed as ‘sold as is’. Sounds like a dodgy car. Now it might mean you get all the furnishings, but I’d be getting a detailed survey. It’s actually not a bad house and site.
It's deffo very charming but probably freezing. There's two portable oil filled radiators in the downstairs rooms. While I have a very very modest home, it's modern and warm. I'm not sure I could ever go back to living in a cold home.
It could be a beautiful house - needs a hell of alot or work though - kitchen is tiny in relation to the size of the house. It has a cold and damp feel looking at the photos aswell. ( didnt notice much radiators in the house)
The reception rooms could be great - they are presented very badly in the photos though - cluttered, furniture in the wrong places or just too much furniture etc. Its a good price though so someone will buy it and bring it back to its glory. I love old houses.😀
To answer the OP; yes, I would live in a house like that and would be delighted, especially for that price.
To echo HeidiHeidi, the decor isn't to my taste but it's fine. I'd give it a few years before redecorating the halls and anything else that had obvious "elderly person" vibes off it, but the kitchen looks good so would get the rest of the house to match the vibe. Would probably make the garden more basic and low maintenance and invest in a robot mower so my spare time isn't spent outside.
One can only dream.
Weird the boys bedroom has a few beds so looks like it's shared in a large house which is kinda strange unless the beds are there for friends or cousins when they visit.
This one looks more 'lived in' but a mad amount of house and gardens for your money.

Agree some of the decor would have to change. Overall though it seems like a well maintained house.
Holy moly, that is a FABULOUS house 😍.
The decoration wouldn't be exactly to my taste, maybe, but it's absolutely in keeping, and by God I'd suffer it if I had to!
What a house for that price !!
