It would cost about 10 grand to heat that for a year, it’s massive ! Fukkkk.

Very individual style wise. If you became the owner one could say nothing compares, nothing compares to you.

Looks like I could fall back on a career as a sub editor if needed

the difference being that you probably cringed a little when you wrote that post. that journalist probably thought they were being clever and original.

Anyone follow crap Irish houses social media?
There was a hideous Titanic inspired house on it a few days ago.
Can't find the ad for the place online.

Ugly Irish Houses from today..

That's just plain weird, is that two dog bowls in between the bidet and the toilet, east of the armchair?

It's the armchair that gets me. Is someone going to sit in it watching someone else doing a poo or jetting their bits in the bidet?

Maybe it's a canine rest room, which bizarrely would make me feel more at ease with the situation.

You can sit in comfort and smoke a pipe, you can sit by the mirror and do your make up and stuff, you can sit and have a sh*te or you can sit and wash your arse. This is the ultimate sitting room.

All that's missing is the beer pump and you'll have the perfect bar, one that you don't have to leave at regular intervals!

Every single room has a different weird thing about it. :pac:


My favourite is the choice of doors for the shower cubicles in the utility room.


With an honourable mention to the lone table plonked in what seems to be a ballroom. In a house that also has a room crammed to the hilt with bunkbeds. These people have a strange sense of space .

1.5m to live in the former Scholars pub/National School in Dublin 8.

Its nicely finished inside, but that is mental money for an apartment with no outside space except a small terrace, which is overlooked by the apartments beside it.
Right next to a few industrial units as well.

That's fabulous!


I'd say they'll have no problem getting the price, that area has been improving for years - The Warehouse building is right beside it and was commanding seriously premium prices 20 years ago and more.

Don't think so. It's a pleasant decoration.

Its probably a listed building so had to keep the outside structure as is

what if it "accidentally" fell off while you were fixing something on the roof?

You'd have to put it back on again.

That's the reality of renovating or restoring listed buildings.


You replace like with like, it's up to you to source authentic replacements. Be they roof slates, windows, bricks, floorboards (depending on level of listing) - or rooftop crosses!
