It's on 3 acres, how big a garden do you need?
The second house is amazing, inside and out.
It is a lovely house, I particularly love the garden. It's a in a good location too but I still think the price tag is excessive. For that kind of money I'd probably buy something in Rosses Point or close by without actual been in the town itself.
Whoops, I missed that.
From that picture it looks like you would be able to fit a car in. Maybe not a big car but a Fiat 500 would fit easily
BER is very misleading and doesn't really say much about how well heating works but efficiency. It is an old building and probably not the warmest but could actually heat very well.
The Bramley house has been staged to within an inch of its life (two chairs and a bowl of lemons making the kitchen 'pop', and polished raised beds in the garden), but yes, lovely house. It looks as though that estate agent has a photographer that really knows what they are doing, note to other estate agents, exaggerated wide angle lens shots don't make a house look bigger, they just look stupid.
second one is a nice house but the uPVC is a shame.
It's the one thing I'd change about the house, the inside of the front door looks particularly awful. Are the sash windows PVC?
they appear to be, uPvc sash windows are awful.
not a bad house but a lot of money for where the house located a huge primary school being built in front of it and another primary school right beside it.
Traffic can be a nightmare. Plus am I right in saying the land outlined in red is not part of the sale and they are building house in your back garden ?
That appears to be the case. How on earth did they get planning for that? The house would be behind and 'overlapping' the existing house with all kinds of privacy issues, overlooking etc.
And you don't even get to keep the front garden.. and a chunk of the tarmac out the back is taken too.
That's seems odd.
So the entrance and driveway to the new house the buyer will be paying for takes a chunk out of the front garden, takes all the privacy from the side of the house and a new house is in their back garden?
How the hell did they get planning permission for that? I hope they all get on and wave cheerily at each other from all the overlooking windows.
It also seems that the new drive will go so close to the original house down the side that if you open a window it will be opened into the drive. Assuming they don't build a wall across the windows.
It's just bizarre, I wouldn't live that close to my own family, nevermind another family. €430k for communal living is preposterous, I hope no one is desperate enough to buy it.
Maybe it's the current owners building the new house on their site?
I assume it is, but it's not something anyone else should buy into. There will be no privacy for the original house when the second one is built and the asking price doesn't reflect that. It would be a realistic asking price for the house as it is.
That is mental who would buy on that basis especially at that price !
House will need to be sold before building commences I'd say.
3 months from application to grant , no objections, no further information sought by planners: very neat!
Planning conditions are for a max 1.2m wall along the side of the house, then 2m from the existing gate/fence.
Planning number 22283 for anybody that wants to take a look!
Planning does not appear to have been applied for, so bit of a mad situation if they are just winging it.
Planning permission granted 16th June
Oh that's odd, if I check it by number (from your document) I get the yellow outline, but if I search by address it isn't there - the number is but it is very inconspicuous.
If you put the planning number in and then 'view documents' instead of map it should come up for you
This could be a beautiful home. The location is stunning It does seem overpriced though at 275k for a shell of a house with 3 acres.
'Tis fab but you'd be bricking yourself during any severe weather as that area floods and you've a stream and balancing pond in your garden.
Set up a small hydroelectric generator thingy in the river and you'd probably pay for the mortgage with your savings on electricity.
It's beautiful tho. I could see myself there with 5/6 dogs running around the garden with the kids.
Beautiful setting to be fair. Realistically you'd have to look at that house as if it's a site. Given that there is already house planning shouldn't be a issue. But to restore the existing building and build onto it another 300k would be the minimum
Planning permission was granted with conditions in June 2020 for a full refurbishment and a single storey side extension.
So unlikely to be able to demolish and rebuild, if indeed anyone would want to demolish it.
