BATHHOUSE in Monkstown (01-214 0907) has cut the price on some of its most luxurious baths by up to 40 per cent including this one, called The Island Bath, which five-star travellers may recognise from the Toussrok Resort in Mauritius.
It’s made of composite stone and comes in a choice of colours, from pure white to stone white (pictured), a creamier colour called Kalahari and the black.
Even with the price reduction it’s an eye-popping €4,725, down from €7,895. This price includes VAT at 21.5 per cent. It needs a reinforced floor to sit on, as it weighs 170kg unfilled.
A one-off kitchen for a one-off price
ENJOY UNLIMITED bragging rights with this Georgian-style kitchen with hand-painted wooden units and a super-cool, light-reflecting Italian marble island with raised bleached oak block that is used as a bar area. The island measures 3.6m by 1.2m.

This price includes a Sub Zero 695 American-style fridge and below-counter wine cooler, a Wolf dual range and hood, and Miele integrated dishwasher and microwave.
