Dublin is expensive I believe, though really depends on one’s circumstances with relation to first time buyer v person trading up with a nice deposit etc.
Your sterling currency is certainly not helping matters for you, of course great for me.
I expect you could pick up a nice place in the beautiful Wicklow mountains, less than an hour from Dublin for your blast of relative civilisation.
Can't wait...local pawn shop has a Rolex Daytona and a Lange moon phase in their shop window...
How well guarded would a Rolex boutique be in said riot?
I did not see it. But I suspect you could plead provocation.
