 Description

A BEAUTIFULLY PRESENTED AND ELEVATED STONE FRONTED PROPERTY BENEFITTING FROM 4 BEDROOMS SET ON A SITE OF CIRCA 0.74 ACRES, OVERLOOKING LOUGH BOFIN WITH PANORAMIC VIEWS OVER JOYCES COUNTRY. THIS DETACHED PROPERTY OFFERS SPACE, STYLE AND MAGNIFICENT VIEWS IN EVERY DIRECTION.

The property is of block construction with a rendered and stone fronted façade and exterior, under a natural slate roof and benefits from underfloor heating throughout, which is zoned for most rooms and is oil fired.

The house which was constructed circa 2005, is a detached family home, provides 245.5 sq. meters of accommodation, which takes benefit of its elevated position, with panoramic views over Joyce's Country. Every window creates a picture that changes as the seasons change. The split-level living room/dining room area with barrel-vaulted ceiling adds charm and character along with the bespoke kitchen, set to the west of the property. All four bedrooms are spacious (two with ensuite) and the whole property has a lovely family feel. Outside the property is set in some of the most beautiful countryside, west of Oughterard, with maintained gardens, including water features, terraced areas, patio areas and a separate garden shed. Internal inspection is essential to fully appreciate.

The property is set in well back from the road and overlooking Lough Bofin, which is part of the Owenriff River system which flows into Lough Corrib. The cottage is located above the old Clifden / Galway railway line, which is now the council road and part of a local 'Golden Mile'.

The location of this beautiful property is both secluded and very private, but not isolated, and is in a popular and highly sought after scenic area, within easy reach of Oughterard village which is just four miles away. Oughterard is well known for its range of shops, pubs, banks and hotels which cater for the large numbers of visitors who come to take advantage of the walking, boating and other leisure activities for which this area is justly famous. The property is close to Lough Adrehid, and overlooks Lough Bofin. Golf is available at the recently upgraded 18 hole Oughterard golf course, set in natural parkland and there are six other golf courses within an hour's drive.
