Description

'Bunnagippaunan'this charmingly named lodge meaning bottom of the small tillage plot in Irish)was built in 1965 as a lakeside retreat, and later in 2003 was renovated to an exceptionally high standard by its current owner. The house stands on a plot of 4.65 acres (1.88 Ha), bordering Bunnagippaun Lough, a small mountain lake. It is surrounded by open countryside, forests and overlooks Oughterard, Lough Corrib and its many islands. South facing, this home comprises a wide entrance hall, a large living room, kitchen/dining room, utility room, 5 bedrooms, 3 with en-suite bathrooms and a shower room. The accommodation is very generous and bright with excellent views from every room, most exceptionally from the living and dining rooms, which have wide patio doors leading onto paved area and the garden to the south of the house. There is a quaint path down to the lake and a small boat / pump house. Whilst Bunnagippaun is now on the main water supply, the pump house can now still be called upon if necessary. This architect designed property is clad in pine green painted timber and blends well into the unspoilt countryside, camouflaged in the contours of the valley. Viewings of this exceptional property are highly recommended for those looking for a special home in wonderful environment yet so close to all amenities.
