Property Description

Take the winding country lane, follow the trees and picture what life could look like here. A traditional Irish cottage, old stone outbuildings and over 2.5 acres, surrounded by a patchwork of meadows and hedgerows. There`s something magical about this setting, with plenty of room to make it your own.

The cottage measures approximately 43 sq. m across three rooms and requires full renovation. Its simple shape, twin chimneys and traditional hearth capture the character of an old Irish home, offering the opportunity to create a layout and finish suited to how you want to live.

Alongside it, the traditional stone outbuildings offer a restoration project of their own. Carefully restored stone work, repaired roofs and simple timber doors could bring these buildings back to life while preserving the charm of the original grouping.

The land gives the dream room to grow. A kitchen garden, an orchard, a few hens or simply space to wander beneath the trees the appeal lies in having the freedom to shape your surroundings, with long countryside views beyond. Additional acreage is available to purchase separately, offering scope for those hoping to keep ponies or enjoy a little more land.

A substantial practical addition is already complete: a newly constructed agricultural shed by Modular Homes & Sheds Ltd, measuring approximately 40 ft × 30 ft. Featuring 60 mm insulation, a roller shutter and a separate pedestrian door, it stands on a new concrete base incorporating 120 mm insulation and radon protection. This versatile space offers ample room for tools, equipment, storage and hobbies, with potential for equestrian use.

Mains water is available on site, with electricity infrastructure located beside the cottage`s gable end. Good Internet connectivity adds to the appeal of this peaceful rural setting, offering the opportunity to work from home while enjoying life in the countryside.

The peaceful surroundings and open skies are part of the attraction. Away from the glare of town lights, there is space to enjoy the stars and, when conditions allow, perhaps even a glimpse of the Northern Lights.

Beyond the winding lane lies a countryside rich in Irish history and folklore. Nearby Tulsk opens the door to Rathcroghan, the ancient royal landscape of Connacht, while Ogulla`s holy well carries its own tradition of St. Patrick and two Irish princesses.

Roscommon and Castlerea provide access to everyday amenities, with Athlone, Longford and Ireland West Airport Knock offering further regional connections.

There may also be financial support to help bring the project to life, with refurbishment grants of up to €50,000 for qualifying vacant properties, increasing to €70,000 where the property qualifies as derelict. Potential SEAI support for eligible energy upgrades may also be available, subject to the relevant scheme conditions and approval.

A peaceful oasis with character, space and possibility. A place to put down roots and make the country dream your own.
