Can't remember what else, but that could be the family home i grew up in! (except for the style of house)
I am more shocked at a million quid for a house up at Sandyford Industrial Estate!
Yeah. Like an early 90s time capsule. Still, you could make an amazing home there. New kitchen and bathroom and the rest is mainly cosmetic
Holy old school batman
probably the bees knees 35 years ago.
I have zero DIY skills so you may well be right. I was looking at it from the POV of location, it's over an acre and there's actually a house on it.
I'm not so sure it's that much of a bargain. The house needs a new everything such as new windows, doors, kitchen, bathroom, plumbing, electrics, insulation, fixtures and fittings, flooring, landscaping etc.
The roof would also need to be seriously investigated as vegetation on a roof tends to do harm and there's plenty of damp in the building. A new roof or roof repairs might solve that problem but the damp might be coming up through the foundation or in through the walls. The advert doesn't say anything about mains water or sewage so maybe a new septic tank/well might be needed. I doubt €100,000 would turn that into a nice house. You'd be approaching or even over €300,000 by the time you factor in the purchase price and renovation costs.
Not really a bargain but then again house prices can be pretty mental in Meath so maybe you are right.

Granted it needs a lot of work, but it seems a bit of a bargain.
perfect for a little herb growing. Not that i'd know anything about that, officer.
I've only just realised the sheds are part of the site, and appear to be in better condition than the house - or at least they were ten years ago. Maybe the whole place has been cleared, there seems to have been some clearance around the house. Given the amount of work involved in demolishing and clearing the whole lot, it would be expensive if they were giving it away, its hardly in a prime location.
Lovely view in 2009 though!
The view out of the front windows isn't up to much either.
I believe this is the hall just inside the front door. 😁
It seems that few Child Of Prague statues survived without losing their heads at some stage.
Sadly no interior photos of this beauty near Cashel. I must go and see..

Wow now there's a watermark on the photos, as if it's something to be proud of 🙄

Courtesy of Reddit. Depressing to say the least. I thought it was a spoof but no, it's actually on Daft. Something like 1k a month. Drumcondra.
Brides used put the CofP outside overnight to get a fine day for a wedding. We did it (pagans all) and got one of the few fine days in a dodgy end of summer month. We borrowed the Child, right enough it had a glued together neck.
It's a really great movie too!
I think that's a Child of Prague statue, we had one my house when I was a kid. My mum always told me that the head had to get broken off, but it had to be by accident. Ours did fall of a windowsill and the head magically came off. A bin to scutter in while waving your sledgehammer at your unbroken child of Prague, that room has it all.
Basically...
Ahh but you have to realise it falls well into "at least a few miles west of Inishannon" category. Which means its nestled in the rugged beauty of West Cork and is in close proximity to a well that spews out a constant stream of magical multi-coloured West Cork pixie dust. This means its a suitable candidate for some well-to-do fcuker from Cork City/Dublin/UK/Germany to hunt a pack of builders into it, have it "tastefully" done up with all quintuple glaze windows, heat pumps, charge point and solar panels at the cost of many more 100,000s so they can come down there at the weekend or use as a WFH base.
After said well to do crowd move in they will automagically have a wonderful life seshing in Clon, pretending to be poor with the hippies in Ballydehob, going to various airy fairy retreats and relaxation centres. Therefore I conclude that this falling down shack represents excellent value for money for people seeking out the kind of faux-bohemian lifestyle I described while burning through boatloads of cash. Particularly if the aforementioned sledgehammer and priestly figure are included
Statesian world?
Everyone in this thread should watch the movie Barbarian, which conclusively answers the question about what you'd expect to find in a Detroit Airbnb. Best not to google too much beforehand
You can expect anything in an airbnb
It's expensive for what it is. It's basically just a site.
Maybe visitors trying to batter their way outside to vomit at the idea of their food/beer being prepared adjacent to a urinal.
Saw this photo somewhere before years ago.But where? Wasn't on the site listed.Is the top tissue roll in cellophane? Carpet in toilets is a thing with some locations.
Very expensive curved appliances in the curved kitchen with the curved floor tiles!
Loving the curved walls. Makes it look so spacious!
Love the open-air side extensions and the contemplation chair.
