FOR SALE BY LIVE STREAM PROPERTY AUCTION, FRIDAY 23rd OCTOBER AT 12.00 NOON.

O'Donnellan & Joyce are delighted to present this exceptional countryside estate to the market, nestled within a truly idyllic and scenic setting in the heart of Connemara.

"Beal an Atha" is a distinctive farmhouse-style residence occupying a magnificent site extending to approximately 2.47 acres. While the main dwelling would benefit from refurbishment and modernisation, it presents an outstanding opportunity to create a superb family home or to explore a range of potential commercial uses, subject to the necessary consents.

Extending to approximately 176 sq.m. (1,894 sq.ft.) over ground and first floor levels, the residence offers generous accommodation throughout. Adjoining the main house is a substantial workshop extending to approximately 60 sq.m. (646 sq.ft.), complete with independent access, providing excellent flexibility for a variety of uses. To the rear of the property, there is a range of traditional outbuildings suitable for storage, workshop space, or further conversion potential, subject to planning permission.

A charming tree-lined avenue leads to a detached two-storey stone outbuilding, formerly utilised as agricultural stables. Rich in character and heritage, this attractive structure retains many original features, including natural stone walls and chimney breasts, offering tremendous scope for restoration and alternative uses.

Ideally positioned along the R336 Coastal Route, the property enjoys a highly accessible location just 1 km from Connemara Airport and within 3 km of TG4, Tully Business Park, and a host of local amenities and services.

One of the property's most compelling attributes is its spectacular setting and unrivalled panoramic views. From the residence, one can enjoy breathtaking vistas across Galway Bay, The Burren, and all three Aran Islands, creating a truly unique living environment rarely found on the market.

"Beal an Atha" represents a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial holding with exceptional character, remarkable redevelopment potential, and some of the most stunning coastal views that Connemara has to offer.
