    WTF!

    That looks like a hallway that's been sealed off to be made into a "bedroom"

    610 beans! Madness.

    The door is to the right of the wardrobe, it'd be a tight squeeze!

    There's barely space to put your head in the bed because of the bookshelf, I wonder how many times the last tenant banged their head off that?

    Nor a fire escape, a death trap if ever there was one.

    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

    could they not have gotten some advice from these social media gurus regarding the massive issue of - How to win and influence people With Decent Photos??

    those pictures in that listing are atrocious quality.

    To be fair at least it's bright and clean looking, but jaysus that's depressing.

    Splash back too expensive? Just cover the place in tinfoil..
