claiming to whom…?
BTW … The following is one of the more interesting footnotes to B Ahern’s tenure as Minister for Finance
Disclosures in this newspaper indicated that the relationship between a firm controlled by Richardson and Rohan Holdings, the property firm of multi-millionaire developer Ken Rohan, was much more lucrative than had been thought previously. An invoice from Richardson’s firm, Berraway Limited, sought payment of £10,000 (€12,700) plus £2,100 in VAT from Rohan Holdings in February 1997. But this only represented the “Final payment due under a previously agreed strategic consultancy advice” arrangement.
Revelations about Rohan make particularly grim reading for the Taoiseach. Rohan is reckoned to have been the sole beneficiary in 1994 when a tax break was introduced by Ahern when he was minister for finance. The developer is believed to have saved £1.5 million in tax at the time and a further £150,000-£180,000 per annum thereafter.
That would be a retrospective tax break. c**ts.

Would be okay affordable housing for a family of 8 at 250k…
you can tell a builder owned it everything is graveled or concreted over. otherwise its a good spacious house in a good location with room to make it a good family home.

Another one bits the dust!
There appears to be a reasonable bit of activity at the upper end of the market.
