Clearly re-using the AirBnB photos - Maradona died the best part of 5 years ago!
I missed that bit 😂
A lot of irritating grammar and spelling errors in the description including this gem - huge emphasis not to loose its character with no expense spared and brought to a 5 Star
Aargh.
So what happens when you're chilling in the Chill Out Zone and your spouse/partner/housemate/child comes by, puts the ladder back on its hook by the fireplace, and then fecks off for the day?
This house caught my eye because when it was on the market a decade ago we went to view it. It was never advertised as such but obvious on viewing in person that it was a repossession or a forced sale. It was selling for the knockdown price of about €360k and on the price register it's actually listed as sold for €320k in 2015. It was like a house that was never lived in, but the owners had got to the point of building and finishing 80% of it, the kitchen was in and most of the bathrooms but there was a few unfinished rooms and no landscaping.
The main thing we remember is that it had a really bad feel, a very bad aura. I'm really not that type of person, or my other half but we both felt it! We passed on it, even though it was a fantastic opportunity as there was lots of land and space and privacy, but only 5 mins to the town. The feeling was inescapable.
Fast forward 10 years and the current owners have gone to town on mismatched wallpaper/carpets/rugs combined with a mix of antique wooden occasional furniture paired with modern reclining sofas and modern coffee tables with throws on everything. Vertical office blinds on the windows and what looks like a bizarre fish wallpaper paired with a very dated bathroom tile and is it planets hanging from the ceiling in pic 24? There's that much going on I actually don't know if my eyes are working properly anymore.
Oh, and a slight price increase from 2015.

does the cannon under the stairs come with the house?
Every room is too 'busy', trying too hard.
I feel exhausted just looking at them.
Not sure if this has been posted.
175k a month rent. For a one bed apartment. I think someone missed a decimal point.
1a Slievebloom Park, Dublin 12, Inchicore, Dublin 8 is for rent on Daft.ie
Yeah, clearly that's meant to be €1750 a month, though that's still ridiculous for a tiny 1-bedroom "house" deep in the suburbs that clearly started out as some sort of wonky granny extension.
I'd say they'll take that with them to their next conquest.
There's a small little cannon ornament in one of the living rooms too, must be a military fan.
Everything is too much. But it's awful too.
Sometimes you can have maximalist decor but there's usually just one style period with an over abundance of colour and prints and it can be too much but on some level it can work.
This is just bad. Bad decoration, bad furniture, even the joinery looks wrong, a monkeys tail period style balustrade paired with modern doors in a dated light oak. But exterior windows and doors all in a dark oak/mahogany. All the woodwork painted or stripped and stained would make a world of difference.

Dublin prices….😁
I had to give up halfway through the photos, It's all so busy!
It has the bones of a good house but the current owners have ruined it decor wise. Clashing colours, clashing wallpaper - it's just awful. It's down to the owners taste though. It could be made nice with a bit of work
It won't achieve that price tag without it being stripped and staging it. I'd even strip down most of the wallpapers and get the owners to take every single throw, cushion, ornament and rug and put them in storage. And most of the furniture too.
two houses for the price of… two houses..

Some house though. I wouldn't mind owning it. Limerick city if someone has a problem with that.
No idea how the shower got there.

Tell the house mate would you please leave the room I want to have a shower.
Or another they are not at home you say great time to have a shower and they arrive home and walk in on you.
edit: Also there could be a lock on the door but still.
Period home 2 miles outside of Derry for £350,000. Built in the 18th century. It's in quite good condition at least from the photos. One or two 'interestingly' decorated walls but overall nicely done

Drumcondra is pushing it for Glasilawn.
Those Lmerick houses are lovely.
Whatever about drumcondra, it's definitely not Dublin 3!
Cash only, wonder what the issue it?
The property has the unique benefit of a vaulted basement with wine cellars, a consecrated Russian Orthodox Chapel, a consecrated Church of Ireland and various stores with a total of nine rooms.
Can't imagine there's a huge demand for the chapel and church.
dont they mean deconsecrated?
I was wondering about that. Otherwise the buyer will have a couple of priests wandering in every week to say mass or whatever.
Not at all. Some churches aren't used for years, consecrated just means it was blessed for use.
If it's consecrated, can you charge god rent?
That's a beautiful house, I love period homes. I was quite interested this one near me but decided not to purchase.

That was mentioned before, mostly to express horror at the ceilings in pics 27 and 28. It could be very attractive, but would need a bucketful of money spent on it.
