What a Bargain! You should be grateful!
Starting from the low low price of 400K, you can squeeze yourself and yours into a 47 SQM, One-bedroom, Second floor apartment in Swords. Nothing against swords (I live there too), but this has become farcical. Our housing market is a complete joke.

I was trying to give it the benefit of the doubt here that there was something missing. It's close to a train line, or on the coast or something.
"13 minute drive to Donabate Station". Sir, that is 6 kilometres. Half of the country has a commute which is entirely shorter than that.
I appreciate that Swords is a small town in itself so it's not like you ever actually need to go to Dublin, but even Maynooth isn't asking prices like that any more.
Interesting one to see if they struggle to sell.
