I'd say they'd love a nice Catholic neighbour ...
WTF? Christina is clearly eccentric. 🤣🤣
They just did the place up for the Jubilee, then didn't take down the decorations😀. The house was sold in July, sale must have fallen through.
It looks like a really nice little house for the money.
Yeah, that's all Jubilee decorations. The image was taken 3 months ago.
Yes it’s in west Clare 😂
Jesus I didn't think it was acceptable or even allowed to have ducks and chickens in a housing estate.
My old dog would have loved killing them. 🤔
I say it was a house adapted fir an extended family that they bought out from the LA
..
Staunch
As per usual, google either John Paul Estate Kilrush, or Sycamore Druve Kilrush and you'll see a plethora of crime reports.
From the description:
When you arrive at this property, you are met by a charming front garden.
It's two driveways and an inch of grass for fcuk sake.
A fine house, but all those knick-knacks, what are they thinking?!
I hate those "Home" "Relax" "Eat" signs. Do they think we are imbeciles who don't have any idea what to do?
They are only 'stuff' and will be taken away when the current owners move. Any house I have moved into has needed a skip for all the stuff that has to be disposed of - mostly old kitchens, bathroom suites and surface decoration - as well as the clutter that I have brought with me and I unpack going 'what was I thinking?'
Ah there aren't a huge amount of them. The dresser in the bedroom with the delph on it is a bit odd though.
Wow, that's a gorgeous house!
Not half as bad as I was expecting after reading the first post about it.
Dresser in bedroom is definitely VERY odd!
A different colour scheme, paint all that pine, lose 90% of the cluttery stuff, and that's an amazing house.
But the trailing flexes would send my OCD into absolute meltdown - the electric blanket in pics 11/12, and the ceiling light in pic 17. For a house with such a nice finish everywhere else, WTF are they about!
But there's definitely a reason you're told to declutter for viewings, and this is a great example of it!
The entrance hall in pic 2/3 is a bit of a waste of space. I can't imagine anyone would ever sit at that table as there is a table in the dining room/kitchen that would more likely be used for meals. Sitting there for reasons other than meals would also seem unlikely as you'd be looking out at traffic passing by your front gate. That said, they do have a gas heater beside the table so maybe they do use it.
The bed pulled away from the wall/radiator in pic 11 is also strange. I'm wondering if that's how the person gets to their side of the bed without breaking their neck over the electric cable you mentioned.
It's a nice enough house but certainly not decorated to my taste. I'd want to clear it out and let a painter/decorator at it.
Interesting kitchen layout here.
I wonder why nobody thought of knocking down the bit of a wall and making it into a proper kitchen/living room? Actually, the walking stick probably tells me why the wall wasn't knocked.
Hmmm, I do like a statement hallway! As long as you have enough room elsewhere, mind you, and this house seems to be ok.
The table I could kind of understand, but the kitchen chairs around it are very odd, I never noticed them the first time. Between those and the dresser in the bedroom, you'd think they'd just have built on a back kitchen or something!
I'd also sack the estate agent for a very lazy job doing the description. Now, some go waaaay overboard with ridiculously flowery and exaggerated desciptions, but this is bare to the bones, and if I'm not mistaken they've left a bathroom out of it.
We had a decent size hall L shaped 8' wide inside the door and 6' including stairs ( it was not boarded down but boarded underneath). When the lads were young they played them all the time. When they were very all they were constantly whizzing around it in some sort of plastic car.
That would be a major job. You would have to use structural steel as it would be an exceptionally wide opening. What is more surprising is they are doing the cooking out there and there washing machine and tumble dryer is in the dining living area. If it was me I would switch it around change the back into a utility and put the food cooking area in the living area. They have a sitting room as well.
Fine house just needs a change of layout. Turn scullary into utility room. then kitchen/ dining and sitting room. Turn either a bedroom downstairs or upstairs ( my own preference downstairs) into an office. The two rooms upstairs cannot officially be called bedrooms but are more than adequate
It's C rated so it's a well insulated house. A lit of cosmetic and redecorating work. Great value at 200k if you had an eye for doing up houses.
I can already get the musty smell just from looking at the pics
I just don't know how someone can prefer these ancient houses over the more recent builds. I know it has prestige but as a functioning house it's pretty awful when you consider how newer builds are half the price, in pristine condition with insulation, ensuites, coming with better sized bathrooms/utility rooms etc. Sometimes these ancient houses have massive gardens so I'd understand that, but you could buy three family houses in that area for the same cost as this one plus the renovation to same standard.
3 family houses in donnybrook for 500k a piece?
Yes well you've just look at the cost of the house I think and divided it by three - I also said/added the cost of renovating it to the same standard as those new build family houses. But looking at the prices of them now, maybe you're right, 3 is a stretch. I would argue possibly 2 though, depending on the area and size. When contractors come out to work on this house, I imagine they charge quite a lot because they know the owners have a lot of money.
i still think its a stretch :)
I'm a lumberjack and i'm ok.
Live out your swiss family Robinson fantasies in Cavan. Although, don;t drink the water, judging by the number of plastic containers of same in the utility.
A Prime piece of London real estate is back on the market.

From the teatowel in view the kitchen sink is in the living area anyway
You put the pin on No 11 not 10.
Well, that's up for grabs as well.
