i dont see the decor there as being particulary modern to be fair, i think it suits the house quite well.
Councils are still doing this, our small estate was built 5 years ago, gates were refused but council wouldnt take in charge either so we have a management fee and no gates!
Its a gated development. a management fee would not be unusual.
Ah right, thanks for the update. It's not a thing down the country where I live.
It's in a gated development, it'll have a fee.
Also piles of boomtime estates of just normal houses also have them as councils tries to refuse to do the normal taking in charge stuff and insisted on it in planning - some are slowly being unwound now
Why would there be a management fee on a house? Isn't that normally the reserve of apartments?
The building and grounds are fantastic. The problem is when people do a modern take on a classic design like this it becomes dated really quickly. Been in many an old Georgian that was modernised and fixed up and it doesn't look well and rarely sympathetic to the buildings construction. Was in one that was done up in the 90s where "no expense was spared" and it all had to be ripped out. They had added paneling in the hall that was actually MDF over modern plaster they added. The place smelled awful and the walls were soaking wet inside. Where they nailed in the panels let the moisture soak into the MDF.
I wonder what the management fee is. When they don't mention it, it's probably more than you'd like to pay.
Euromillions jackpot tonight - It could be you!
Love it.
Yeah, the bath tub is weird... like something out of a western when the grisly cowpoke gets his bi yearly a-wash'n.
Very nice house. I wouldn't mind living there.
That's not an apartment. It's an ensuite bedroom in someone's house FFS.
I was looking at buying there around 12-14 years ago, they weren't for sale. A handful were sold and Nama owned the rest, but weren't selling.
No idea what the story is now, but I would guess you are right and that it has never been lived in.
I'd imagine it was just painted white for the sale, it's not new so probably was lived in. A few weeds won't deter buyers in the current market, bit it's a soulless looking house.
What's with the hobbit bath in the bedroom?
"My bathses" 😂
its tight for 6 beds, i reckon the 6th is the study they mention.
Have I lost my mind or are there 6 bedrooms on the floorplan, but 5 in the description?
And while this is an ambitious price for a house in the back arse of nowhere, what a place, i have it on good authority that no expense was spared.
This is an odd looking gaff, and doesnt look as if it was lived in at all, youd think whoever was selling would have sorted the garden out
Nearly a grand a month for a bedroom with an ensuite at the edge of east county Galway is complete BS.....even if it is clean.
Typifies our dysfunctional housing market.
And the student would need a car.
True, I didn't notice the lack of bins or vacuum storage area etc.
It wouldn't be though because there's no where to store anything. €950 p/m for a shoebox, you'd want to have very, very few possessions and be prepared to buy food every second day. Food that doesn't need much prep or cooking at that.
It's really only suitable for student digs during the week at a push.
It's easy keep clean to be fair. 😆
That's potentially a mortgage payment. And, it's not exactly city centre. Tis mad.
At least it is clean.
I featured this "bedsit" before and hoped it was taken down because somebody showed the "landlord" some sense, but nope. It's back.
That's gorgeous. A lovely house in an idyllic location.
Also contains the rarely sighted actual lit fire in pic 20
