Ideally located just 3.2 km off the R336 Maam Cross to Casla Road, the property is approximately 13 km south of Maam Cross, 18 km north of Carraroe and 56 km from Galway City, offering the peace and tranquillity of rural living while remaining within easy reach of local amenities. Approached by a long tarmacadam driveway, the residence enjoys an attractive and private setting amidst beautifully maintained gardens laid to lawn. Built in or around 1973, the home has been well maintained over the years and benefits from double-glazed windows together with pumped cavity wall insulation, providing a comfortable and energy-efficient living environment. Stepping inside, the accommodation is bright, welcoming and well-proportioned throughout. The entrance hall leads to a comfortable living room with timber flooring and an open fireplace, creating a warm and inviting space to relax. The kitchen and dining area, originally arranged as two separate rooms, has been opened into one generous, light-filled space overlooking the gardens and surrounding farmland. A traditional solid fuel range adds both character and practicality, while the adjoining utility room provides additional storage and convenience. The home offers three well-proportioned bedrooms together with a fully tiled family bathroom complete with a bath, separate shower, wash hand basin and WC. Heating is provided by a dual-fire central heating system, with the oil-fired boiler located in a purpose-built boiler house. To the rear of the residence, a substantial block-built outbuilding provides excellent storage for turf, firewood and general household use. The surrounding lands extend to approximately 8 acres and are divided by traditional Connemara stone walls and perimeter fencing into practical grazing paddocks. Enjoying a favourable southwest-facing aspect, the lands provide excellent grazing and are well suited to a range of agricultural uses. A substantial agricultural shed, constructed in recent years, offers excellent livestock accommodation and handling facilities, while a traditional stone outbuilding with a galvanised roof further complements the yard and its agricultural appeal. An outstanding feature of this property is the inclusion of a 1/13th undivided share in hill grazing rights, equating to approximately 62.29 acres.
