The Unfortunate Impact of Technology On Real Estate…

…it’s harder to hide the truth. The marketing copy for this home for sale in Dublin says:

“Sherry FitzGerald are delighted to present 27 Herberton Park to the market. No. 27 is an attractive bay windowed house that will appeal to both investors and owner occupiers. It presents itself as a three bedroom home in a cul de sac with 2 one bed units attached to it to provide an income for an owner occupier. Conveniently located, it is situated within a short drive of the city centre and is just around the corner from the red line Luas Station at Suir Bridge and the amenities of Rialto village.

While in need of modernisation, the accommodation is very well appointed and would provide the purchaser with generous proportions throughout coupled with a good sized patio garden. The house itself comprises entrance hall, two reception rooms, kitchen, bathroom, w.c. and three bedrooms. There are two one bedroom units built onto the side of the house, both of which comprise open plan living/kitchen/dining, bathroom and a bedroom.

All in all this is a great opportunity to put your own stamp on a house in a superbly convenient location.

(emphasis mine)

And here is the home, so far so good:
