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.
thats a self contained basement apt i believe.
Less property monologues and more links and pics to houses please. Plenty of places on here to discuss the housing situation in Ireland…
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!
I think it's called 'multi piece' or 'multi size' pattern;
Two kitchens, one for cooking and another one for something else!
Surprisingly small plot, but a lot of house(s);
That's set me on a better track - thanks!
That's a lot of house for the money. The decor wouldn't be my taste but it is very well done.
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
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?
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.
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 🙄
If a won a few bob maybe

I honestly don't like that house.
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 feel like someone who wanted to be a James Bond baddie designed that
Aye truth be told, I just posted in an attempt to get the thread back on track. I was gonna say it’s not very homely or something, but even that might be a bit generous…! Not even half the pics are of the indoors.. it’s very stark - kinda of a private hospital or rehab centre feel about it
A stunning house. Exactly the style of architecture I love
I prefer a homely lived-in house with some period features, modern architecture and decor leaves me cold.
I can see that Meath house is objectively stunning but it's not for me at all. Grem hit the nail on the head with the Bond villain.
Another interesting one (prime for a Bond villain refurb!)

For just 100k you can have a derelict bungalow on half an acre in the middle of nowhere. There's optimism!
If it structurally sound it is probably worth that from a build point of view. It will probably be bought for less than that,
Clonony Castle: supposed to be haunted. Buyer Beware!
Bit of money. No taste.
What style of architecture is it?
IMO that castle should be in state ownership. There's enough historical significance to have it preserved as a visitor attraction rather than a private residence.
The style they love. Not sure you need to be an expert to like/dislike somethijg
I think it looks great too fwiw
No, you don't need to be an expert. But it can be good to explain what you like, if you can't show someone pictures. I quite like it myself, but the choices for finishes wouldn't be to my liking. Too much of the same tiling, and I'd prefer wood or carpet in the bedrooms.
A fine building on a great plot, I wonder will the new buyers stick with the planning permission granted 3 years ago?
This is a lovely house, on nice grounds. It happens to be in co. Clare, but we'll let that one slide.
The pictures in the ad are borderline criminal. Would love to get some good photos of the place.
