It is simply spectacular, I stumbled across it in my house hunting, put in a few too many zeros. :pac:

Never seen that much marble outside of a cathedral.

omahaid · 07-02-2011 09:31PM

After the property crash you'll be able to pick this up for a fiver. If you pay anything more than that you're a chump.

1.2 acres of land? Terrible value

try 169 arces of rolling lush countryside

Chav Palace is the name on the wall outside it. Drove past it once, has a pink stretch limo round the back.

orourkeda · 07-02-2011 09:31PM

Finance said property from €11665 per month

This is right beside the price. Mad out of it

u140acro3xs7dm · 07-02-2011 09:32PM

Is it me or does every room look the same? Goes to show money cant buy you style

CantGetNoSleep · 07-02-2011 09:33PM

I would love to have a gaff with 8 bathrooms

I would take a dump in a different one every day.

It would even leave one extra for those hungover days where I do a morning dump, and another dump after eating 2 Big Mac meals and a caramel sundae for breakfast at around 5pm

They're ten a penny in this country, theres only so much land you can use. I couldn't live in a house like that.

blacktalons · 07-02-2011 09:33PM

3.2 million!!!. someones been on the jungle juice again:D, might get 300k at auction if he is very lucky.

Ste.phen · 07-02-2011 09:33PM

I dunno, I don't actually like it; it looks like it's a reasonably new build but designed to look older and if that's the case they really screwed up.

The whole thing looks like a tiny hotel, but without being styled to appear like it's actually comfortable to live in...
I *do* like the pool though, i gotta give them props for that

07-02-2011 09:33PM

I'd love to throw a tin of red paint against the wall. It's so dull.

pragmatic1 · 07-02-2011 09:35PM

Its all about the swimming pool. I want one.

if 1166 boardsies give me a 10er a month i promise to have a massive gaf party there once a month for the next 30 odd years

Ruu_Old · 07-02-2011 09:36PM

The inside looks very cold and near hospital like, boring and neutral.

iMax · 07-02-2011 09:37PM

The amenities etc are great, but does anyone think the rooms seem a little on the small side (width). Pic 3 is of the living room & it just seems like a long thin room, If I was paying that money, I want a big square room, I can hold parties in. Alto, the tiled floors in the bedrooms... Don't live in a continental hotel, so no thanks...

It's near to me & the estate it's in is 3/4 built with massive houses but also some empty, fenced off plots in varying stages of completion, the roads are unfinished & almost all the houses are up for sale.

u140acro3xs7dm · 07-02-2011 09:37PM

Its also possible they got the painters in before it went on the market. One thing I have learned been on the dole is that you should paint all your walls a neutral colour before selling. Homes under the hammer i think it was that thought me that.

Another thing ive learned is that i cant afford gaffs like that.

paddydriver · 07-02-2011 09:37PM

Looks like high maintenance to me.. can you imagine the dust balls blowing all round those tiled floors.

Its up there over 400 days! Just shows how times have changed - 4 years ago some poor sod would have paid €15m for it.... well maybe not poor at the time:p

I agree. It needs a dose of MRSA to shake it up.:pac:

ScumLord · 07-02-2011 09:37PM

I'll give him €200 for the pool table. WE can do a deal for the tiles off the roof and the copper.

So Wayne Rooney could use spare the money he uses to wipe his arse and buy this?

07-02-2011 09:40PM

Looks tacky imo.

I have been in a few new build houses on Westminster road in Foxrock and this doesnt even compare but I doubt youll get pics of what they are like on the inside online.

Chinasea · 07-02-2011 09:42PM

I was lookin for the illuminous 14 stone wedding dress hangin in the walk in wardrobes

Duddy · 07-02-2011 09:42PM

Can you imagine sliding about in socked feet in it:P

Apart from that, I'd want a decent carpet before I would buy it..

Holybejaysus · 07-02-2011 09:42PM

Tacky. Tacky. Tacky. Like something you'd see on my Big Fat Gypsy Wedding.

It symbolises the Celtic Tiger perfectly for me. It wouldn't be Alison O Riordan's place would it?

Celly Smunt · 07-02-2011 09:42PM

too much tile.

Though, there's no carpets there, boss...

Started at €5.5m in May 2009

What about the fireplace there, it'll be hard to get rid of but I'll do him a deal and only charge him €20 to take it away.

The most epic house i've ever seen in this country
