That isn't too bad see the two kips that was posted yesterday or day before in same area.
It doesn't appear to have any rear access, and there is only the tiny hall at ground level, so what do you do with the bins?
The two bins are beside the front door.
Odd one out here, because I like it!
I'd far rather they renovate the old mansion into some pretty nice apartments, than tear it down to build yet more identical bland beige or grey boxes.
So they are! But they are not in pic 2 so where do they live? Maybe they put them in the yard down the side alley.
This could have been lovely.
Only built in 2016, it's like they really tried to want a classic style house but it ends up tacky and tasteless. It's overdone, cold and soulless.

I actually like it, slap a bit of colour around and it could be lovely
No-one could accuse it of being homely or cosy, but if showroom is what you want then its pretty good. Not my choice, but then I am not likely to be doing any serious entertaining.
that could be a very nice house in fairness, main issue is decor (if the location suits). i doubt you could build it for asking.
bland dot com. Bit of paint would cure that though. Go back to 2009 on street view and this site was a now long obliterated derelict cottage.
What's in the field in front of the house the aerial view. Is it a glamping spot and is that a swimming pool?
I'm mystified over the bulge in the wall in one of the hallways:
I'd say they just wanted it. It gives more room too for the small table and lamp.
If the attic above the garage is representative of their interior decorating talents, it's probably better that they left the rest of the place a blank off-white/beige canvas. Overall it's relatively inoffensive and not all that bad as oversized McMansions go, though it does commit some of the usual cardinal sins (like most of the bedrooms being ridiculously large). At least it's not a total architectural disaster like some! Really the only bit that made me wonder what the hell they were thinking was the wibbly-wobbly hallway that adds bulges to the walls of the office and family room (seriously, what were they thinking there?).
It's probably a very nasty thing to say about someone's home (and one that has so much potential) but to me, that house looks like it was decorated top to bottom from The Range😟
Never saw a play area like this in a house!

So many nooks and crannies for germs!
That toughen them up.
Agreed, I like it too
Only a few cosmetic changes needed to suit personal decor taste.
apart from one or two photos, there's barely any hint that house was ever lived in. they must have had quite a thorough cleaning job done on the place before the photos were taken.
I thought the same. It looks staged. Only most staging companies don't use furniture that looks so cheap.
I've never seen this before - is that an open bathroom in the bedroom?

Looks like a bidet to me, but they normally have a toilet next to them.
Weird all the same.
looks like a toilet shaped sink, but why have one beside a normal height sink?
though the loo roll is very suspicious.
my house is like that, i hate clutter!
Says in the blurb that it’s a bidet, very strange though.
Definitely a bidet. Without there even being a bathroom upstairs (the one in the house is on the ground floor based on the description) and based on the decor in that room, it might have been for…well, helping the elderly occupant clean up after using the bedpan (or after failing to use the bedpan…). 😐️
I cannot stand the fake bay windows on corpo houses. Bidet might double as a jacks, so to speak. Does it get around the rules banning electric sockets in bathrooms?
A bidet and a hand basin? What the literal and actual? A hand basin in a bedroom was a thing up to the 90’s but a bidet?
The EA actually used inverted commas around the ‘utility store’ in the back garden. A more accurate description
‘There is a granny flat with no planning permission that will be a headache for the new buyer to get past mortgage approval and sort with the Council. The asking price reflects what property would be worth if the owners had done the building legally, so there isn’t even a saving in this for you. TS.’
First of all, wtf, €350k to live in Ballyfermot? And I say that as someone who grew up across the road from this house 😯At least it's on the side of the road that doesn't back directly onto the main rail line our of Heuston.
These houses are tiny upstairs originally. Generally you'd be squeezing three bedrooms and no bathroom upstairs (as we did) or two slightly bigger bedrooms and a toilet. The toilet would have originally been in the back yard and so when I was living there many of these houses would have the toilet downstairs and extended off the kitchen. When I was a young lad our football coach still had his outside toilet and used it rather than go upstairs to the newly installed one.
