'No Stopping. Teachers cars only beyond this point. ' Grammatical issues aside, is that even legal?
What might look like a site sold off is probably the National School.
I don't know why but something tells me they like horses. 🤣
Did they sell a site for the neighbours house?
Not my cup of tea, its like a hobits house. . I hope they didnt chop down that old tree for the stairs.
I love this apart from the green kitchen.
Does the door at the bottom of the stairs in picture 15 open in towards the stairs? I'd be nervous coming down those stairs worried I'd get smacked by someone opening it.
Mystery flue ha ha. Looks like they have a snug behind a partition in pic 9. (Partition wall beside dinner table)
That Leitrim house should be lovely, but it's awful.
White PVC windows, the mystery flue and 2 different types of stairs, bannisters and handrails on the first floor, the narrow second floor landing with the flue again, this time to be navigated by children to get to the play area.
No interior design flair and a lack of colour and interest throughout.
The garden is lovely though.
Do you mean photo 34? Looks like a stove flue to me..... way to gently cook whoever has to share the space with it upstairs......
ETA - and yet I can't see any sign of a stove anywhere downstairs?
All that. But photo 32. That pipe would live in my head 24 hours a day.
That house would send me over the edge completely!
The skewways floorboards for starters - it's hard to judge but most seem to have been laid at random angles just for the hell of it.
Looks like a pale, watery imitation of a similar house that featured on Grand Designs years ago (that really was a hand built cob house) - that one would also have put me in an early grave, but at least they had the courage of their convictions and did it all properly and authentically. Took them about 10 years, and a few armies of volunteers to get it finished, mind you, if memory serves....
That is one uggleee emmeffing house.
Would that not go up like a light.
Was asking €200k back in 2015.....
Thought it was a Cobb house so Googled it. Timber frame with straw bales for insulation!
They are at odd angles. It's related to the wavy walls and the fact the rooms are odd shapes, not rectangular/square. Looks lovely on an architects drawings, can be a total pain for furnishing, especially anything built in.
That's weird, are some of the floors laid diagonally? Or is it the camera angle?
Big house. The staircase was a nice idea but fails badly for its general appearance and failure to bring it up through the first floor at least. Also, spiral staircases are difficult to live with, hopeless for moving furniture and large loads. Also can be tricky for young children and anybody unsteady on their feet. What's that pipe running up through the dead centre of the room in photo 32 like??? Anyway it's in Leitrim.
The outside of this house looks a bit like a giant mushroom. Adding this for the unusual staircase built around a tree trunk in the middle of the house:
Possibly price may be in part due to the commercial development potential of the site (given the surrounding location), which is mentioned a couple of times
The previous owners did well to arrange/retain the mature planting. The site boundaries aren’t indicated, however if the majority of the mature greenery surrounding the house is included then you’d drive in and be oblivious to the outside world.
Absolutely love the layout and proportions. Beautiful house with amazing possibilities. It’s due a major renovation given that it’s 200 years old and 50 years since the last significant upgrade. Between a total modernisation and probable extension and replacement of previous extensions the final budget would probably be double the initial cost.
The greenery would definitely win me over. It’s in total contrast to many similar houses around the country and in Dublin in particular where the grounds were sold and they are now imprisoned by four concrete block walls just feet from the windows.
True, in fairness to the agent they haven't cropped out the drone shots to hide the reality of the surroundings. Not that it wouldn't be obvious looking at google maps anyway.
I like the house - the location is absolutely brutal. Sadly this devalues the house majorly - wouldnt even consider buying it
Almost a million quid to live in a holdout to times gone by but now surrounded by an industrial estate and penned in by distributor roads

Gone now anyway although it was up for almost 2 weeks so they likely found some desperate person to take it.
It's right down at the bottom just above Contact Agent (on desktop anyway)
Or while lying in bed.
Dreadful.
Thats a deluxe prison cell with a view.
Incidentally, where is the report function on Daft these days? Listings like these should absolutely be flagged and taken down.
And looking at teh map it's not even close to the city centre. It's on the outskirts.
This would make me twitch uncontrollably, along with a deep sense of unease at having the electric hob so close to the sink:
