That house has been for sale for a very long time. 2 or 3 years at least. It is very overpriced for the location
I honestly don't like that house.
If a won a few bob maybe

Ah lads, can ye take the sociological chatter to a more appropriate forum, for gawd's sake?
This is meant to be all about the houses 🙄
It has way more council built houses in it than million euro houses. Very small parts are wealthy and expensive like you suggest. It doesn't depend on what you consider wealthy it requires you to ignore the vast majority of housing in the area.
Depends what you class as wealthy. There's a lot of houses there above a million euro, spread over a large area of it. If you can afford a mortgage like that, does it not make you wealthy?
I don't know what you think you know about Glasnevin but it isn't much. It certainly isn't a very wealthy area. One or two small parts of it are expensive and wealthy but the majority isn't at all. Parts of Finglas are much nicer than parts of Glasnevin. People are moving to parts Finglas and Ballymun after growing up in Glasnevin.
People made the same complaints about all housing estates being built as being soulless from the 50s to this day.
There is amazing differences in areas very close to each other and it makes a huge difference to your quality of life. I moved a 10 minute walk away. When walking the dogs near my first house the kids would often try to hit the dogs with footballs. On the first time walking the dogs in the new house the kids stopped kicking the ball about while I went by.
An ex corpo housing in Malahide is going to be more expensive than the same house in Finglas. Don't think it is madness at all
That's a lot of house for the money. The decor wouldn't be my taste but it is very well done.
That's set me on a better track - thanks!
Two kitchens, one for cooking and another one for something else!
Surprisingly small plot, but a lot of house(s);
I think it's called 'multi piece' or 'multi size' pattern;
I love that. Off topic, but what is this floor tile style called? I've Googled all sorts of things it might be called but they've all been completely wrong!
Less property monologues and more links and pics to houses please. Plenty of places on here to discuss the housing situation in Ireland…
thats a self contained basement apt i believe.
It's weird how it has three kitchens. The entrance hall looks seriously dated and dilapidated, then there's a part that super modern looking with polished concrete floor and birch ply cabinetry.
Too much for an over-looked money pit, imo
always the same with those places, its half an acre but the house is so big and they need so much foliage for privacy it looks tight.
I don't like it at all and it's far too imposing for a half acre site.
The previous owner should have retained a lot more of the grounds, when you look at the drone shots the house is completely surrounded.
I'm struggling with the mix of crenellations and big windows, then the Georgian/Greek revival/deep south -ish concoction of the doorway.
i think its down to people buying what they can afford as close to the area they want to live in, so if you grew up in glenageary or killiney or dalkey, the noggin isnt very far away, but id agree with you i wouldnt spend that money to live there and i know a few people who did last time around who got stuck with negative equity and all the rest and are still there and unhappy about it.
Interesting spot
Non Principal Private Residence
The NPPR charge is no longer in place and was phased out in 2013. The charge remained in place for any unpaid liable properties. When an individual goes to sell a residential property in Ireland, they will be required to furnish either a Certificate of Exemption or a Certificate of Discharge for the NPPR charge
Having the eircode does make life easier, but its easy enough to c/p the address into the Eircode Finder.
NPPR
First % is the change in the past month, second is the change in 3 months
It is a pity eircodes don't reliably appear on Daft listings and the nupper, making it difficult to compare asking and selling prices.
Sold in 2020 (According to PPR) for 381k.
No shortage of daft prices north of the Liffey either tbf
It’s South County Dublin madness. People willing to pay stupid prices rather than cross the Liffey and pay less stupid prices. Most areas of SCD, apart from the bits touching the coast, are boring as hell.
That was probably a fine house back in it's day. And if you had the money to buy the land you could become a farmer. Or even rent out the land for an income.
Looks in fairly decent condition. Ya in need of modernisation but is on nearly 2 acres with some sheds as well.
Option to buy another 18 acres. It would be a lifestyle choice
Another 'cheap Irish house' likely to end up on Maggie's Instagram feed soon for 95k
