It's nice, but the harbour is rather small.

The 3500/month would come in handy for heating it

6 bedrooms, for only about 1k each, could be some party house!

Didn't they do the same in the pickup artist book, The Game?

Was for sale asking 3.5m ye olde punts back in 1999.

No less than four lavish detached houses on the coast have been withdrawn at auction in the past fortnight. Lisney is now looking for private bids of £1 million-plus for 4 Coliemore Villas, Coliemore Road, Dalkey, which was withdrawn on Tuesday; Cliff Castle, also on Coliemore Road, at £3.5 million; Victoria House, on Victoria Road, Killiney, at £3 million; Fortlands, on Killiney Hill Road, now for sale at £4 million, and The Grove, Killiney Hill Road, which is available at £2.85 million.

... or, for only a few euro more (in low season) you could rent this (... actually, per bedroom it works out cheaper):

Now, THAT'S a party house for any aspiring Chateau du Pinster.

Was for rent for €12,700 back in the day (2002) and rented as the Moroccan embassy possibly up until it was put up for €10,000/mo.

Quote:

In 2001, businessman and 'Black Tie' owner, Niall O' Farrell supposedly paid £3m (€3.81m) for the property. A few months following his purchase, in 2002, O' Farrell listed the property for rent at £10,000/month (€12,700). The castle was let out for years as the Morrocan Embassy as we can see from the Moroccan flag mounted on Cliff Castle's flag pole in above pictures(...)

If there are a few people interested in a week in that bad boy let me know. We could organise a Pin week away, drink cognac/whiskey/poision of your choice, while discussing world domination coupled with rock bottom property prices, and in general feel like Bilderberg Group. And to top it off we could load the car with cheap french wine and drive it back home.

Interesting history. Great read.
So what's this sucker worth if it's unable to rent for >6k/pm?
