DNG Martin O'Connor Estate Agents are delighted to offer sale this traditional detached residence standing on approximately 1.276 acres in the highly popular residential townland of Bohoona, just 1.4 km from the heart of Spiddal Village. Occupying an elevated position within mature grounds, this south facing property enjoys an enviable setting where the peace of the Connemara countryside meets the beauty of Galway's spectacular coastline. Situated along the gateway to Connemara and the Wild Atlantic Way, the location is one of the property's greatest assets. Within minutes are the sandy beaches and shoreline of Spiddal, the renowned Ceardlann Craft Village, local cafés, restaurants, schools and sporting amenities, while Galway City is approximately 19 km away. The R336 coastal route, stretching west through Furbo, Spiddal and into the heart of Connemara, is regarded as one of Ireland's most scenic drives, placing an unrivalled landscape of coastline, mountains and open countryside quite literally on your doorstep. Originally constructed during the 1960s, the residence extends to approximately 67.77sq.m (730 sq.ft) offers spacious accommodation with excellent potential for refurbishment and modernisation. Full of character and authenticity, the property provides purchasers with the opportunity to create a superb family home while retaining the charm of a traditional Connemara residence. Standing on approximately 1.276 acres, the property is complemented by mature gardens, traditional stone boundaries and three useful outbuildings, providing excellent versatility for storage, workshops or hobby farming. The generous site offers both privacy and space, a combination that is becoming increasingly difficult to find so close to Spiddal Village and Galway Bay. Spiddal continues to be one of the West of Ireland's most sought-after coastal villages, celebrated for its vibrant community, Irish-speaking heritage and exceptional quality of life. Whether enjoying a walk along the shoreline, meeting friends in one of the village cafés, exploring Connemara National Park or simply taking in the changing colours across Galway Bay, it is easy to understand why so many people choose to make this part of County Galway their home.
