This which might be a joke becasue there's no pictures of the house itself, but why would anyone pay €22 to put up a fake ad?

Best bit is this in the ad

That type of kip is still very common around Ranelagh and Rathmines. When I was a student, my local supplier of herbal relaxation products used to live in one of these places. Awful.

The Government announced they were going to ban these places, seems to been put on the long finger.

Ban on bedsits

That's why I said almost.

I hope noone ever moves into that bedsit so the interior that surrounds the crying chair will never be disturbed.

At least it's nice though. I wouldn't mind living there, just not for that asking price.

I think the price is a little optimistic though, €750/month to live in a box, woo

Yeah indeed. I'd still take it over all those nasty little bedsits with pink carpet and hobs resting on microwaves.

€9000 a month.

Now, this house is stunning, but 9k a month? Who the hell would have 9k a month to put into a rental property?

how about €850 a month to live in someones back garden in Dun Laoghaire
http://www.daft.ie/searchrental.daft?id=881556
I love the way it says it has been 'recently upgraded'. When, back in 1987? The state of the place!

bronte · 23-07-2010 8:40pm

That bedroom with the indoor window is the funniest thing ever!

This entire thread is hysterical!
