Description
DNG Martin O'Connor Estate Agents are delighted to present to the market this impressive four-bedroom detached residence in the picturesque coastal setting of Aille West, Inverin, Co. Galway. Extending to approximately 270.7 sq.m. (2,914 sq.ft.) and standing on a mature site of approximately 0.57 acres (0.23 hectares), this substantial home offers beautifully proportioned accommodation, established gardens and excellent ancillary space, all within a wonderful Connemara setting overlooking Galway Bay. From the side of the property, the outlook extends across the bay towards the Cliffs of Moher, adding to the appeal of this remarkable location.
Distinctive in both scale and design, the residence has been thoughtfully arranged to create a home that is bright, spacious and welcoming throughout. The generous entrance hall makes an immediate impression, where a striking spiral staircase forms a central architectural feature and leads to the first-floor accommodation. High ceilings, extensive glazing and carefully positioned rooflights enhance the sense of openness and allow natural light to filter throughout the interior.
The heart of the home is the superb open-plan kitchen, dining and living area. Here, the principal living space rises to an impressive double-height ceiling, with extensive glazing and overhead rooflights creating a dramatic yet inviting room. A solid-fuel stove provides a warm focal point, while the open arrangement allows the living and dining areas to connect seamlessly with the kitchen. Generous in scale and ideally suited to both everyday family life and entertaining, it is a particularly impressive feature of the home. A utility area and guest toilet are conveniently positioned off the kitchen.
Two of the four bedrooms are located on the ground floor, along with a dedicated office, providing excellent flexibility for family life, guest accommodation or working from home. Upstairs are two further generously proportioned bedrooms, together with the main family bathroom and a substantial games room, creating a separate space for recreation and relaxation. Three of the four bedrooms benefit from their own en-suite facilities, adding considerably to the comfort and practicality of the accommodation.
Outside, the house sits comfortably within its approximately 0.57-acre site, surrounded by mature gardens that complement the natural beauty of the setting. Generous lawns are framed by established trees, shrubs and colourful planting, while a sheltered patio provides an attractive spot for outdoor dining and relaxation. A gravelled driveway offers ample parking and convenient access to both the residence and garage.
The substantial detached garage is an excellent addition, providing fantastic storage space together with its own shower and toilet facilities. Its scale and separation from the main house make it a particularly useful and practical feature, providing valuable ancillary space to complement the residence.
Aille West enjoys a wonderful position within the Connemara Gaeltacht, surrounded by the rugged landscape and coastline for which South Connemara is renowned. The views across Galway Bay, extending towards the Cliffs of Moher from the side of the property, reinforce the sense of place, while Inverin, Spiddal and the R336 coastal route towards Galway City are all within convenient reach.
Combining distinctive architecture and generous family accommodation with mature gardens, excellent ancillary space and a superb coastal outlook, this is a home of considerable character in a truly special South Connemara setting. Viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate the scale, individuality and location of this impressive residence. Accommodation
