    Please tell me where I should look elsewhere.

    That stinks of one of those scams where the poor renter ends up with no house at all and no financial comeback either

    I am so glad that I'm not from Dublin nor am I trying to get on the property ladder (and I don't mean that as an insult to Dublin people).

    How in the name of fcuk is someone supposed to buy a house there when you have sh1tholes like this (€325k) being sold for the price of a very decent house down the country?

    For €10k more, you get a house like this down the country. https://www.daft.ie/carlow/houses-for-sale/ballon/daingeanella-kilknock-ballon-ballon-carlow-1770201/

    325k for a 30sq meter house. That's almost 11k per sq meter. Christ almighty. :eek:

    The most pretentious drivel I've read on Daft.
    The phrase "opportunity not to be missed" is readily bandied about in the property world but this house is the genuine article

    Umm yeah sure. There must be more to this property so!
    This area has changed and now it is home to software engineers, computer scientists and social media gurus

    Social Media gurus! Well colour me sold!

    In this particular case I think the devil might be in the detail.
