An escalator can never break: it can only become stairs. You would never see an "Escalator Temporarily Out Of Order" sign, just "Escalator Temporarily Stairs. Sorry for the convenience"

Well we live in a tiny flat 1bed 1bath and little kitchen in Subiaco, an 'inner-city suburb' :roll: it is a horrific looking building but our flat is cute: wooden floors, a balcony and wooden blinds, and having moved 4times in the past two years, i am determined that we are staying there for a while!

we live on a busy main road in a red-brick semi-d which is about 120 years old, 3 beds, sitting room, dining room and horrible 6*8 foot kitchen but it has a fab big hallway with original wooden bannisters and a split level landing which i just love! every room in the house except the bathroom has a fireplace and the one in the sitting room and our room is huge, the sitting room has original cast iron fireplace with green tiles inlaid and all original cornices etc. the house has a lot of character and we were recently granted pp to extend the back so we can convert the existing dining room into a big bright kitchen :D

We live on a main road, and my house is a wee two bedroom house about 40 years old. Has a small living room (just got a new fire place in which makes a bit of difference - black surround and cast iron insert!) two bedrooms are small - but just right for us, small kitchen, couldn't swing a cat in it - have a small table and 3 chairs and keep bangin me toes of the table. :twisted: Bathroom small too - surprise, suprise.. but it has everything we need in it, Actually, it's on 1/2 acre site and was all I could afford when I needed a roof over my head. I have planning permission in to build an extension - extra bedroom, kitchen/diner etc, etc, going to wait until after the wedding before we start building... Even though it is small, it's cozy...

A 4 bed semi-D in South Dublin suburbia! The estate we live in is nice - about 8 years old and in a great location (thanks to the Luas the value of the house has almost doubled since we bought it 3 years ago!). Downstairs there's a fairly big sitting room, a dining room, a loo, kitchen & utility. Upstairs there's 4 bedrooms (1 ensuite) and a bathroom. We have a small back garden (which is good as neither of us is green fingered!).

We're hoping to buy a place in the country sometime over the next few years.

Our current house is a two yr old 3 bed semi, but our new house (blockwork has started on the second floor!!!) is a 4 bed detached on a little over an acre with 2 sitting rooms, a huge kitchen/dining/family room, a utility, a sunroom and most importantly a walk in wordrobe!!! It also has a double detached garage and a separate bar in the garden :hic Best of all its within falling distance of Dublin, but is on a lovely quiet country road, and the H2B can keep the boat two mins walk from the house. Have a feeling we'll be in this house for a long time to come.

We're renting a 1-bed apartment at the moment. It's nice and bright but am dying to move into our new house. It won't be ready till March 06 but I'm getting really impatient and fed up paying rent. It's a brand new 3-bed, really bright and spacious and the master bedroom is fab - that's what sold it to us. We'll probably be in it for 4-5 years and then upgrade hopefully.

We live on the nothside of Dublin, very close to town on the main dart and bus route, Our house was originally a 3 bed end of terrace, but it was in a bad state of repair, full of woodworm, toilet out the back, bath in the kitchen etc... so we moved the bathroom into one of the bedrooms so we now have a 2 bed! We have a sitting room a kitchen cum diningroom, small utility room 2 beds and a bathroom + 100ft back garden, not joking its like a football pitch!

We have made over €240,000 profit in the 3 and a half years since we bought it and are currently looking for something bigger but trying to stay around the killester, Artane, Marino, Collins Ave area.

Currently we have a 5 bedroom detached red-brick 2 storey in a nice housing estate, and we are on the corner, so that's nice. We hadn't planned on buying such a big house, but it was the only one left on the plans, and we had 2 hours to say yea or nay. Probably made the right decision, as it's gone up considerably in value over the past couple of years. The estate is nice and quiet, and people keep to themselves (which I like :wink: ), but I hate the fact that our house is over-looked (I know, what else do I expect living in an estate :oops: ) We won't stay here forever, and if we could get our hands on a nice site, we would love to build our own. Hopefully someday we will.

We live in a 4 bed mid-terrace house in a suburb of Dublin. It's 2 years old now, we bought it brand new. The best thing about it is that it's over 3 storeys so the top floor is just our master bedroom which is huge, an ensuite and a walk in attic.

The only thing I hate about it is the lack of a downstairs toilet and the commute to and from town each day for work!
