Looks nice. Shame that Ireland turned into a Socialist degenerate & pagan hellhole in recent decades.

Nice enough location.

Upkeep is likely extremely expensive.

For the price, I can get a nice station in Australia with 5,000 acres.

Reminds me of a movie call "High Spirits".

Steve Guttenberg, Daryl Hannah, Beverly D'Angelo, Liam Neeson and Peter O'Toole.

I like a big house but there isn’t a house on earth worth $1.5M to me.
Twelve bathrooms...sounds like it was a small hotel at some point.

Looks like the original tower is on the left in that picture. The center, and right part built later. According to Wikipedia, the center is a Georgian wing, and the right tower is from the Victorian period. It would be nice to see photos of the inside of the place before they renovated it. I don’t think it’s an historic listed building, so whatever renovations they did, didn’t need prior approval.

Limerick has some nice castles including one owned by a gentleman from Nantucket. I hear he’s quite popular with the local ladies.

There is a tv show called Escape to the Chateau where a retired military Engineer with some good documentary TV connections and his wife, who has 20 year's experience in the hospitality industry, buy a Chateau in France that's in horrible shape. The series follows how they restore it and turn it into a B&B/Events center. They've done a fabulous job and have inspired others to follow in their footsteps, most of who are going broke as this is written thanks to the lockdown. It's a very entertaining show but my take on it is that unless you have a ton of money and/or tv connections to get you sponsors I would avoid this like the ChiCom Flu.

I just see a ton of money spent on upkeep, too much to clean and a lot of steps for old knees. Give me small, modern and all on one level.
