Very attractive I agree, but cosy? I doubt it. No mention of a BER on the ad. I'd want to know what was under that nice neat plaster that is all over the inside, very suspect on an old stone built house.
I might be thick but that does not bring me to the property and (reminder, thick) it's not showing up on the main page of site..

They love doing that in Ireland. Building a big wooden box inside a stone house so it looks nice for the sale then a few years down the line you realise the wooden box is completely rotten
https://www.daft.ie/for-sale/detached-house-tipperkevin-ballymore-eustace-co-kildare/4711314 - Not a bad house in many ways but for the guts of €1,000,000 there are a few gripes:
The covering on the pergola is just cheap looking
The toilet seat in pic 26 isn't properly fitted
Are those fluorescent lights in pic 32? Who fits those nowadays. Also, is that exposed pipes/wiring by the desk?
Maybe they're hidden but in some spaces there seems to be a real lack of electrical sockets..... such as in the hallway
Anyone a spare €1.43 million?

Whoever did the photography for that ad was trying far too hard.
Are you paying for the land that just happens to have a house on it?
That is about it. It will probably make 30-50% above listed price
I can forgive them. They've made an effort, unlike:

Yeah. I live not far from it and if you could just buy the house and some of the land around the house
you would have great peace and quiet.
£30k, what a bargain!!
You will need £12m or so to renovate it though.
look like pretty honest pics to me. No use of fisheye lenses or perspectives to make it look bigger than it is.
Thats a bit harsh.....pic 10 - who doesn't love a lamb roast!
I can't tell if you really mean that or are being ironic 😐️
Definately the latter. But I do love a lamb roast!
I can't be the only person who saw it, the remote location, the walls surrounding it...and thought that's a perfect place for a bolt hole in case of a zombie apocalypse.
If you've ever spent any time in the Shetlands you'd wonder if the Zombie apocalypse hadn't started there...!
No irony. They're not great pics but they are not deliberately misleading like a lot of estate agent photos.
I am not seeing 'trying too hard'; the house appears to be dressed for the pics, I doubt that furniture was in the house originally, but its all reasonable enough.
These are the sort of pictures I was taking about. Trying too hard to be arty with their edgy angles, they do very little to inform viewers about the property IMO. Waste of space in the ad.
All of the internal photos are distorted with a wide angle lens.
not to any great extent. certainly not to the extent of some of the ads posted here.
Going by the pics you posted:
That third one does rather emphasise the dodgy unpainted doorframe!
Big house, cheaply finished and sparsely furnished, it wouldn’t appeal to me at all at half the price.
