Property on exclusive St Mary’s Road in Dublin 4 became derelict and mired in ‘truly extraordinary’ legal case
13 St Mary's Road in Ballsbridge has gone on the market for €1 million, having been unoccupied for over 15 yearsthat was sold in a “fraudulent transaction” six years ago is due to be auctioned this week with a guide price of €1 million.
The house, a protected structure, was bought by Liam and Keira Curran in 2006 and they entered into a mortgage with Permanent TSB, now PTSB in 2007.

In January 2018 the house appeared on the PPR. However, neither the bank, nor the Currans, had any knowledge of, or involvement in, the purported sale. They took legal action against Hamilton Holdings a US-based company that had been registered as the owner of 13 St Mary’s Road. Mr Justice O’Moore said he had “no option but to find that the asserted conveyance of the Ballsbridge property to Kent was a fraudulent transaction” as the purported conveyance of the house from the Currans to Kent “never happened. Any deed purporting to have effected such a transfer is a fraud.”
Herbert Kilcline , a former solicitor with an address at Bessborough Parade, Rathmines, Dublin, was found guilty of eight counts, which included failing to apply the required measures as a designated person, using a false instrument and fraudulent procurement of entry to the land registry between September 2016 and June 2018.
