This is what rebuilds/renovations cost these days folks.
Eye-watering numbers, but it is what is is.
They'll spend 600k on skips if that's hpw they load them.
Sell the house , add it to your 600k and buy a million euro house in a nicer area would be what I’d do
Wonder what yer man works at.
Crazy, crazy money .. I know they probably have a few bob but it’s probably going to end up close to 700,000 😮 on a renovation .. surely a bigger more suitable house could be purchased in the area .
sell house for 500,000 and put another 500,000 from budget and buy yourself a million pound house near buy ..
Don't sweat the small stuff, just throw another few 50 euro notes in the stove if it's a bit chilly.
He has a paper round
There are only a handful of the houses on Grand Designs that cost more than this.
Contact manager for international company....started in the 80's and worked his way up.
A big part of the reason for the renovation is staying in the area, with family living next door - and i'm not sure how far your million euros would go trying to get something within communting distance of the Mater!
The Emperors New Clothes syndrome
The spend on this house is off the charts for what it will be worth.
Yes you easily on paper would get a 'nicer area' but the people around you could be total bellends to live near. I know 2 couples who moved out of modest 3 beds in to fancy 4 beds during the early 2000's, they regretted it after 6 months, one of them actually sold up and moved back to a house on the same road be previously lived on, on the plus side he probably lost nothing in the process the way houses were going up and up.
Gone from 400 k to 600 k already.
And love to hate it I think. Otherwise wouldn't get to moan.
He needs to grow a pair on the bike storage issue
Utterly blinded by the family connection. To spend the guts of 1.2 million total and have a back garden you could piss across is crazy, utterly crazy.
Sell up and buy the house of your dreams with a back garden bigger than 6 foot
That’s a beautiful home
All depends on what's actually important to you.
Any dream house with a big garden within Dublin will cost a lot more than 1.2 million.
They seem like really nice people who don't want to complain.
I don't think they care much for a garden. The kids play out on the green and sure the young fella will be in the Royal College of Surgeons in a few years.
But this is their dream house.
They want to be in this area, they want to be beside each other.
They absolutely know what they want. They are extremely intelligent people and have obviously been planning this for a long time.
Not everyone wants the 10 bedrooms, 15 bathrooms and room for a pony 😂
That is some house he is showing them around in Drumcondra.
Here we go again, another horrible 'show house' I'd never want my house to look like.
A horrible kitchen with a throw back to the 1970's.
I say they bought the house cheap enough originally, so the cost of the renovation is probably their only mortgage
She has become quick with the word NO!
Poor husband didn't get half way through his suggestion about the island before she said NO!
They said they don't want to move because of the area and their son.
Its easy to say for an outsider to do that but for some, there is a real emotional attachment to a house and area that money cant buy.
Christ these are hard work
600k and you can’t make it work
get up the yard Bannon
Operating theatre.. Husband is pissed off
