A connection to DJ of the parish over?
Is it hers or his?

3 acres zoned residential.
The house is exceptionally ugly, I imagine it will be demolished when the new estate is built.
"On today's episode of Kip for a Mil…"
You made me spit out my coffee. 🤣 I love that! 😂
Wow that is horrible. Nice plot though.
Surely central heating was around in 1983?
Thank you. I was mightily confused.
The house is irrelevant, you are buying the site.
First line of the ad states "3-acre development site with residential zoning."
Was it by the description ? 'stunning' :-)
I remember my mother getting central heating installed in the house in 1987. Before that, we had open fires in the living room and kitchen only, and the kitchen fire heated the water. That was in a SDCC council house, newly built in 1984.
So central heating was around, but not standard? That first winter with central heating, we didn't know ourselves!
This is the Carey property. The Indo's interpretation of "stunning" and mine vary significantly …

I'd guess a lot of the cost is for the brontosaurus spine holding the stairs up, dinosaur bones aren't cheap.
My folks house - semi d in d15, was built in around 1975, with central heating.
My oul pairs house had none. Council house built early 70's in Dublin but we got it installed in the 90's when they were installing gas in the area.
The inside of that house is like looking into the inside of Catriona Careys soul.

Question: is there a name or special term for that awful habit of draping manky blankets/rugs over armchairs ?
Lake obviously floods in winter as you can see the stains on the land surrounding it. Not really an issue just thought I'd point it out.
Catriona Carey!
Strange ad for what should be a trophy house

Using CGI renderings from certain angles in the hope that you won't notice the houses & apartment blocks that have been recently built in the garden.

Lisney, but looks like an advert from a small independent country agent or BidX, with the sale being forced. I wonder if they were not allowed in any further than the front hall.
Goodness, they made a hash of that. Its obvious to anyone that there is some codology with the photographs, which would put you off immediately. A bit of honesty would have got them a lot further.
This property remains in a presentable condition with the interiors in reasonable condition, however it is in need of refurbishment.
tl;dr: It's likely a wreck, and the entire former garden is currently a building site for the aforementioned apartments and housing estate (which is actually where they stole that first CGI rendering of the house from, ironically…).

That may be, but did you know -
"The Residents Association (MMRA) initiatives such as "Clean Up Day" and the "Tidy Roads" competition are actively supported."
So you can shell out close to €2 mill and head out of a Saturday morning to clean the building site / roads. Bargain.
The Residents Association sound like busybody PITA types.
Mentioning them in the sales pitch would put me right off!
I'm getting American style "HOA" vibes from it alright.
Here's another church conversation, not sure if posted before. Its one of the better ones
