You can find out about the Single Public Service Pension scheme here.
There is a public health service funded out of taxation but if you want to pay for private health insurance it will cost roughly €500 to €2000 a year.
House prices vary depending on where you want to live. 300m2 is pretty large: around here a 4-5 bedroom family house will cost around €400K to buy but you can pay much more for posher houses.
Professor B salaries are similar to standard UK professor range. Professor A is higher, and seem even higher because the £ is low.

Roughly but it’s not entirely free. You need to pay a nominal fee to see a GP (~€40) but if you are then referred to a hospital that is free.
About 37% of the population qualify for a medical card which gives them everything free.
