Drumm house back on market

The driveway has gone mossy, the study is a bit dark and the kitchen rather uninspiring; but if you have a flare for home decor, a fondness for Celtic Tiger relics and €1.65m to spare, the former home of a banking legend could be your not-so-humble abode.

Former Anglo Irish Bank chief executive and refugee from public fury, David Drumm, is having to look on from the US as a ‘for sale’ sign goes on his old pad in Abington estate in Malahide, Co Dublin.

A bankruptcy court in Boston where Mr Drumm has living since fleeing Ireland amid Anglo’s collapse in late 2008 ordered the disposal of the house before Christmas and Dublin estate agents, North’s Property, have now taken charge of putting it on the market.
