Nestled in the beautiful countryside of Aughavas, this detached bungalow enjoys an elevated rural setting, with open countryside, valley views and approximately 15½ acres of surrounding land. Combining the charm of country living with generous indoor and outdoor space, this is a home with plenty to offer. Originally built in the 1960s and extended in the 1990s, this detached bungalow is one complete dwelling, with a layout that offers the potential to create two distinct living areas. This offers flexibility for family living, multi-generational accommodation or the opportunity to continue operating part of the home as holiday accommodation. One section of the property is currently operating as Airbnb accommodation, with its own private entrance. Since commencing hosting in May 2026, it has achieved Superhost status and attracted regular bookings, offering an excellent opportunity for a new owner to generate additional income. The home features four bedrooms, three bathrooms, a kitchen, living room and utility room. The large kitchen benefits from two generous windows overlooking the surrounding valley, bringing in plenty of natural light and making the most of the countryside views. The property benefits from oil-fired central heating. The wood-burning stove in the kitchen also provides the option of heating the central heating system and hot water. Outside, the property enjoys approximately 3 acres surrounding the house, including a garage, generous front and rear yard and parking areas, gardens and a private driveway leading up to the house and continuing towards the adjoining farmland. A further 12½ acres of grassland lies directly behind the property. This additional land includes a separate former residential cottage, now derelict but with potential for restoration, subject to the necessary planning permission. The cottage may also be eligible for the vacant property refurbishment grant of up to €70,000, subject to meeting the scheme's criteria. The land also benefits from a functioning hay shed, cattle yard and a small wooded area. The additional 12½ acres are currently leased to a local farmer, with a further three years remaining on the tenancy. The arrangement provides an annual rental income of €3,000, which will pass to the new owner in accordance with the existing tenancy. The farmer is fully responsible for the ongoing maintenance and upkeep of the land, meaning the new owner will not need to undertake field maintenance or provide machinery during the remaining tenancy period. The grassland has recently been well maintained, with drainage ditches cleared and all hedging and fencing taken care of. The approximately three acres surrounding the house are not leased and will be available for the new owner's own use, offering plenty of space for horses, sheep, chickens, vegetable growing or other smallholding interests. Aughavas and the surrounding area offer a welcoming rural community, with St Joseph's National School in Aughavas approximately 5 km away (local bus connection). The nearby towns of Carrigallen (approximately 8 km) and Mohill (approximately 14 km) provide local amenities, shops and services, as well as secondary schools. The larger towns of Ballinamore (approximately 18 km) and Carrick-on-Shannon (approximately 25 km) offer a wider range of shopping, restaurants, leisure facilities and other services. Excellent facilities for horse riding are available nearby. Cloone is home to Bóthar na Naomh, a popular equestrian and recreational trail around Annaghmaconway Lough, which hosts organised horse-riding events and cross-country rides. The surrounding countryside also offers numerous lakes for fishing and outdoor pursuits, while nearby Keeldra Lake is a popular destination for swimming.
