It’s over 4000 sq feet near the sea in howth if it was south side you could add another million or two depending on where exactly it was, I’ve seen a lot worse value than that if howth is a place you like.
Because maybe the tenant isn't paying and it's costing a pile of cash to hold onto it. Looks like there's kids there as well. DCC housing won't be in a rush to help move them on as finding a suitable 3 bed in that area is pretty much impossible. They may have an interest in a long term lease but they usually only do this when the apartment is empty and renovated to their standard.
If you could get the rent allowance paid into your account it wouldn't be too bad, but it beggars belief that it's nigh on impossible to get this done here.
Also could be an estate agent lowballing to get interest. But that's a very low ball.
Because it has a tenant.
Whether or not there are issues with the tenant is not known, but it has a return of 20k a year, I wonder why a landlord would get rid of it?
Nothing wrong with this place but wondering why asking price is so low?
150k for a 3 bed apartment in Dublin 8.

Did a split personality person design that interior?
The contrast between the fussy, ornate living/sitting rooms and the rest of the house - especially the stark TV room which follows the other pics - is jarring.
Can't say I'm a fan of any of it.
Oh my god, that's fabulous!
But the mean little roundy table in the dining space - wtf was that about???
That's crying out for a big lump of a 12-seater at least!
Just catching up on a few days of this thread now....
What a bizarre house!
Front door looks like entrance into a warehouse or barn or something.
Purple shiny couch in the hall, matched by the two-tone curtains (with those brand spanking new doors are curtains really necessary?? I keep threatening to fit one to my 100+ year old hallway, which leaks air like a sieve, but surely not needed in a newbuild?)
I love their wall colours throughout, but whoever picked the curtains needs sacking.
Not a fan of all the redbrick in the living/kitchen area - a bit can look good but that's waaaay overdone.
Have to love the mini Oval Office!!
Don't mention the hose!! 😲🙈🙉
Looking at pic 15, is that a hose beside the jax for, em you know, getting out the stubborn clinkers ?
I could just imagine a massive storm with massive swells in the ocean. Sure look at Salthill in Galway every winter where cars are parked and always get flooded.
Very pretty - but *sucks teeth * damp, and rising sea levels.
I think this is a beautiful site although expensive.
Well spotted! I'm guessing it would have been too close to the junction right beside that house.
[Snaps wallet shut]
🤣.. just going to have a look at it now.
I have no idea why the architect made the neighbours house driveway in front of your house why didn't he just do a normal entrance at the front?
Also the price is because of location.
I think the location is a big part of the asking price. It's a fine house, but I'd rip out the bland carpets, get rid of the curtains and paint the walls more interesting colours than the bland creamy colour they have.
I like the garden, well landscaped and a manageable size, and love the walk in wardrobe. It just needs some imagination and better furniture.
Well obviously its a Norman Tudor fortified church, its a well established design style.
I'm more curious about the building two doors up in pic 39
This house is very bland - nothing special really. I would expect a lot more for €2.2M!
Found this one courtesy of a journal article, haven't had a good look at it yet.
Always big ugly pine/mdf island in the kitchen with those stupid extendable bar stools
The kitchen in the offaly house reminds me of a maze.
Every time you'd turn you would be bumping into edges / walls/ counters
Been on sale for a few years now
for a near 10M euro house the kitchen is a bit uninspiring. The rhino on the other hand is fantastic.

All the sofas all over the place are mad. You know nobody is ever going to sit on the one inside the door, just fling coats on it.
The furnace in picture 67 looks like something out of Buchenwald.
I find the kitchens in the McMansions very disappointing. Built from scratch and they are terribly designed/laid out. I have been spoiled by seeing that lovely one on this thread in Chris De Burgh's old house.

I think the blurb said it's in the walk in wardrobe.
I can't find the top of the laundry shoot in the photos. And there are no floor plans to help. Why do I even care? But for some reason I've decided I want to find it. Is it behind a door in the walk in wardrobe? Or camouflaged as a wicker basket in the bathroom?
Your beloved can sit on the church pew and read you a romantic story as you sit with your knees up to your chin in the bath.
Did no one consider a big bath for that room?
Just looking at the house with the shoot and the furness room.
It's confusing my poor head.
All very mish mash.
And furniture in the bathroom. 🤔
