That's a Sims starter house.
Did Trump get that thrown in for free when he bought the hotel down there, the absolute state of that
So relaxing after a hectic day in the City! 🙄
It looks like the owner enjoyed a trip to Rome and got carried away.
I admire someone who just runs with what they like, but that's been taken too far. Far too cluttered to be comfortable, all the kitchenware on shelves for flies to party on and the dust must be horrific, you'd never keep on top of it. Whoever buys is will spend a lot of time patching up holes when all the pictures and ornaments are taken down from the walls and living room ceiling. There's more in that flat than you'd find in a large family home.
The Kilmainham house is an example of maximalism done well, this is the opposite.
I really like that. It’s the type of house I’d like to downsize to when the kids are grown up and I don’t need a bigger house in the middle of a field in the country 🙄 Kilmainham is such a good location and as I get older I want to live close to shops, GP, etc. I’m still a few years away form doing this yet. That said tbh I’ll probably never get the kids out of the current house given current property situation.
Can't remember seeing this one on here before, I'd love to live her if I had a spare couple of Mill.

Umm I would like to live close to water - but its a bit too close for my liking. The house inside seems to have had its sole ripped out a bit. Its looks to be done a bit too modern for the period of the house however it does seem to be done to a good standard. It could easily be made nice though with a bit of colour and better furnishings.

Your home insurance quote would be €"Ahahahahahahahaha…oh wait, you were serious? Um…no."

only 6 bedrooms?
Another very bland house but great location, and I'm scarlet for the estate agent.
In simple terms the road is positioned slightly back from the walkers, joggers and sea swimmers all In simple terms the road is positioned slightly back from the walkers, joggers and sea swimmers all living their best life.
WTF? Has he/she conducted a survey?
And then this:
For example the extra reception rooms downstairs could otherwise serve as bedrooms attracting downsizers.
Why would downsizers want more bedrooms?
Being the home town of the happy pear twins is not going to inspire me to move there
as a granny flat
You're meant to take aul wans and/or aul lads into your home in order to free up theirs, and they'll need downstairs bedrooms so they don't have to walk up all those stairs. Traditionally said aul wans/lads would be your own relatives or in-laws, but these days everyone would probably be fine with it if you just grab any random ones that you happen to find out and about and bring them home to live with you; word will soon get around and there will no doubt be a queue of potential buyers in front of their former doorstep by the next day.
Haven't been able to get flood insurance for my own house since flood risk maps were updated a few years ago so I'd live with that.
I like it. I'd love to live near the sea.
Living by the sea is a vastly overrated activity.
I like the exterior, and the interior has nice good size rooms, but while I'd like to live close to the sea, or a body of water, that is just a little too close for comfort.
😮
Hmmm,
Well,
its much, much better than not living by the sea
Especially the Irish sea. Freezing cold and full of human sh1t.
I thought they stopped releasing s**t into the sea. I'm pretty sure it is treated before being released.
People used to say that years ago but the mad thing is it was true back then untreated human waste used to be pumped directly into the sea.
Whatever about the s**t, having a sea view on a glorious summer day is one thing, there are many, many days when it is not glorious. I lived very close to the sea, temporarily. From the windows you could not see any headland so on most days it was just like looking at concrete, a vast expanse of grey. I was then a bit further inland, maybe a kilometre from the sea. Any time I drove out of the end of the road there was a lovely view of the coastline, which I enjoyed, but no view from the house. There was salt spray on the windows though, all the time in the winter. Now I live with an all round view of hills, woods, fields and mountains, and I love it! Obviously its a personal thing, and if you can choose, then that's great.
In Ireland, most urban areas are drained by combined sewer systems, which convey wastewater and stormwater in a single pipe.
The problem is when there is heavy rain, these systems hit capacity and the water and sewerage needs to be diverted to an alternate relief outlet or else our streets (and some buildings) would backflow with sewerage.
So when this happens, certain beaches are closed as all the nasties from sewerage, along with anything discharge out.
See this video for a great explainer - this is the very issue that Paris was facing in trying to clean up the Seine for the Olympics.
Still happening across the country.
Dunno but theyre regularly full of some sort of sh1t
Discharges from wastewater overflows and misconnections are the main issue at these beaches.

Published last week
The EPA has warned that 17 beaches around the country, but predominantly on the west coast, aren't suitable for bathing because heavy rain has placed them at “risk of deterioration in water quality".
Clifden is closed for the year at present.
….Maybe thats why this owner is selling up 😜
You know what's madder? All those one off houses with septic tanks, farmers will empty them and then spread it on their fields😳😳
And the evidence is where for this?
It is true that this still happens, but tanks have to be registered, and proper emptying is supposed to be done through registered firms. It is not true to imply that all the one off houses are disposing of sludge in an irresponsible way, in theory you should have a form confirming that it has been done properly, to what extent this is effective I don't know.
Seriously? Perhaps the fact that I know people who have septic tanks and people that empty them. It's not a secret.
