Very pleasant to meander through the photos. Beautifully kept.
With 12 bedrooms, and guest lodges, I imagine that it would make a great wedding or short break venue.
It could have a business side to it, as a weekend getaway, and it would also appeal to equestrians.
You would want to be extremely wealthy to live there. Permanent gardener/grounds keeper, heat, lighting.
As the saying goes, if you know how much money you have, you are poor!
it fabulous but a house like that could be a burden imagine how much maintaining it needs.
One along the road from me, not too long built, could really do with a splash of colour somewhere. The fields in front of it have also just sold this week after only being on the market a fortnight, so probably see PP for another gaff there shortly…

Kitchen is outstanding!
It is beautifully done… I love the kitchen!
Wow, that is stunning! It's so well-restored, not surprising that it has won awards for it
€10m+ to live like the Lord of Meath. Or about the same price as a row of terrace houses in Booterstown!

Looks like they are very serious about their hobby 😆

Nice surprise in the photos!
I know what you mean but it actually looks like a house built for workers of a company to me.
It is incredibly boring inside
Crazy - Absolute madness.
Outside it looks like it originally was a council house.
That is unbelievable! Nice house, bit bland but well done, but anything approaching a million is ridiculous. I like that pantry press though!
Or you could have this which went up for sale last week at €895k and went sale agreed yesterday for €1.16m
Location, location, location!

Agreed, its lovely, but my thought looking at the photos was maintenance…maintenance.
Oh wow!!!! I'd love that!!! A lot of maintenance but what a lovely business to have.
Not Ireland but looks like a lovely little gem. When you compare what you’re getting for your million with this one to some of other houses posted here it looks like good value!

Looks like they looted parts from the UCD Sports centre 🤣
I really like that place, personally, though the price is definitely ridiculous for the size of it. The tiny bedrooms make it rather impractical as a family home, but if you had no kids it'd be grand.
Also it's definitely not "in the middle of nowhere"; it's just across the N11 from Bray.
Something along those lines would be my dreamhouse.
The original downstairs room was stunning - this townhouse was originally the main entry point - although the upstairs part was for centuries a closed off section of attic that was out of use - known to those who knew the original house as "the ghost room." The downstairs living room was the original entry parlour - though it was huge. No 2 was the main entry hallway - no idea what the interior looks like now. The original building there (you can just about see it in the exterior) was probably a chapel, so its a building that has undergone many conversions and changes of use in its 500 odd years.
Carving it up has kept it in use, prevented dereliction and provided a very vibrant community for the 24 households living there who absolutely love it. Prior to its sale the owner didn't even live there but had a full time caretaker who looked after the property. It was in good order but had been damaged previously when it was out of use for a couple of years. In that part of the town, a property like it would have been burned to the ground had it been left vacant again for more than a couple of years.
It's a great channel! Some off the wall stuff on it
Yes I follow that channel.
Love this one.
You might like this! They've taken it to the extreme, a house within a greenhouse.
I think it is an early earthship house design. The glass heats the property and it retains the heat with the mass in the house. The site is worth a lot of money more so than the property
The price is bonkers for 1700 square foot and all the rooms are tiny. I was looking at the first few photos and thinking I wouldn't like all that glass privacy wise but it's probably in the middle of nowhere so it'd be ok. Then scroll forward to the overhead and there's houses within a stone's throw.
70/80s build, when the trees weren't so tall perhaps? I'd be topping, but I'd also be knocking the gaff too.
Love the concept of a house covered in glass but one thing would worry me
