Yeah, it was a bit small really. Would have been lovely as a weekend retreat or such like, but as a main residence, we'd have struggled.
This afternoon we bought a New Build in Exminster, which whilst far from being "Prawny" or a dream house, will be perfect for us as we grow our family and save up for something a little more special.
The rough plan is to live in it for the next 5 years or so, then mortgage it, rent it out to repay for itself, and take the cash to go bigger barn shopping. Or something.
Oh, and to the chap who said I didn't know how this thread worked: Your Mum.

Isn't this they place that belonged to the chap who invented the Segway, and died when he drove one over the edge of his garden path into the river below?
Think you're right.
Jimi Heselden invented the Hesco barrier - http://www.guardian.co.uk/technology/2010/sep/30/j...
Didn't realise it was his place though.

It's not hard to sell me on a steel/glass staircase but that has to be one of the worst blends of materials I've seen in some time

On the whole, trying too hard and badly matched, could build a much better, much more coherent version for that kind of money

I agree. But the pisser in pic 9 trumps just about everything else though.On the whole, trying too hard and badly matched, could build a much better, much more coherent version for that kind of money

I'm struggling to find my favourite picture of the montage. Currently I think it's pic 18 - the 'tropical hat' design of the lake house on the island; love it. Therefore, I can forgive the staircase. And the urinal.

Recession, what recession. What €10m asking gets you in Dublin.

so many things i don't like about it!! The kitchen looks industrial... there seem to a lot of quite small rooms. The style seems to be all over the place, with some modern and quite clinical rooms, and some really quite grannyish, and some more classical stately home style... front gate looks like a mental asylum... what's with the weird plastic car port area? http://www.myhome.ie/residential/brochure/deepwell...
gardens and outside areas are generally quite though, you could open them to the public! Still, I've seen a lot nicer grounds in this thread for less.
Oh and your gates would probably leftover kebabs dumped in front of them on a Friday and Saturday night.....
What those pictures don't show either is that the DART is at the bottom of the garden too.
€10mil my arse!
