OK.
Imagine you’ve just woken up and Bobby is having a shower and everything was a DREAM.
Now read on.
The Irish Times reports that No. 1, Sorrento House in Dalkey is on the market for €12million, making it Dublin’s most expensive house – again.
In an Irish Times video, property editor Madeleine Lyons takes drooling readers interested bidders on a tour of the house.
“Millionaire entrepreneur Terry Coleman famously outbid Lochlann Quinn, then chairman of AIB, to secure Sorrento House for £5.9 (€7.5) million in 1998. It was the highest price ever paid at auction for a Dublin property.”
“After a lengthy planning process, Coleman extended the dilapidated four-storey building to double its original size at an estimated cost of about €13 million, adding a summer house and guest accommodation.”
“In 2006, the protected six-bed Victorian, tucked neatly between Bulloch Harbour and Killiney’s Vico Road, was placed on the market with a hefty €30 million price tag. No takers.”
