DNG Martin O'Connor Estate Agents are delighted to present this unique coastal holding extending to approximately 5.49 acres (2.22 hectares), occupying a superb setting on the shores of Camus Bay in the heart of Connemara. Comprising a detached residence, three storage sheds and a traditional stone pier, this property presents a rare opportunity to acquire a coastal holding in one of the West of Ireland's most scenic locations.

Originally constructed in the 1950s, the residence is of solid stone construction beneath a pitched tiled roof. The property requires complete refurbishment throughout, offering purchasers the opportunity to restore a home full of character in an exceptional coastal setting. Subject to the purchaser satisfying themselves, the property may qualify for the Vacant Property Refurbishment Grant.

The accommodation comprises a front porch, a central living and dining room, three ground floor bedrooms and a loft room. A rear extension, added many years ago, accommodates the kitchen and bathroom. Three detached storage sheds are located to the rear of the residence, providing useful ancillary storage.

Extending to approximately 5.49 acres (2.22 hectares), the lands are divided into a number of fields enclosed by traditional stone walls and mature trees. Having remained largely unmanaged for many years, they are now heavily overgrown and will require clearance and reclamation works, offering purchasers the opportunity to reinstate this attractive coastal holding.

A standout feature of the property is its traditional stone pier, accessed via a pathway leading from the dwelling to the shoreline. Set on the sheltered waters of Camus Bay, the pier provides direct access to the bay and has historically offered a safe location for mooring small boats. While it would benefit from restoration, it remains a rare and valuable feature that enhances the property's appeal. Surrounded by beautiful coastal scenery and abundant wildlife, the bay provides an idyllic setting for boating, kayaking, fishing and enjoying the tranquillity of Connemara.

The property is approached through entrance gates with stone pillars and benefits from mains water and fibre broadband available along the public road. Electricity is available on site but is currently disconnected.

Located within walking distance of the local national school, shop, public house and GAA grounds, the property enjoys the convenience of village amenities while retaining the privacy and beauty of its coastal setting.

Properties of this nature rarely come to the market. Combining approximately 5.49 acres (2.22 hectares), a detached residence, three storage sheds, a traditional stone pier and direct access to the shores of Camus Bay, this property offers a rare opportunity to restore a unique coastal home in one of Connemara's most beautiful settings.

Please note this property will be offered by online auction (unless sold prior). Vendors may decide to accept pre-auction bids so please register your interest with us to avoid disappointment. The successful bidder is required to pay the balance of 10% deposit and contracts are signed immediately on acceptance of a bid.
