Description
DNG Martin O'Connor Estate Agents are delighted to offer for sale a unique property holding on the Atlantic Coast. The property extending to the sea on two sides, consists of a dwelling house and a cottage on c. 8.68 Ha (21.44 Acres) of land with 360 degree uninterrupted sea views in addition to two half shares of two coastal island known as Oyster Rock and Illaunrossalough in an area of Connemara regarded for its rugged beauty and spectacular scenery.
The property enjoys a picture perfect setting with the backdrop of the Maum Turks mountains & Loughaconeera Hill in the background and enjoys fantastic views of the The Twelve Pens while Kilkieran Bay encompasses this lovely peninsula which this property stands on. The property is split in two even sized sections by a boreen which leads to the Quay which also borders the land.
The main dwelling facing southwards is perched on the highest point of the land where it enjoys the most incredible views imaginable over the Connemara Landscape. The house in need of total renovation provides the blank canvas to redevelop it into a stunning home with postcard picture views in all directions. The accommodation consists of a porch, hall, living room, kitchen, three bedrooms and a shower room. The property is connected to mains electricity, water and private drainage.
The cottage across the road is also a south facing property which was the former homestead of the farm. It is a stone built building with a side shed. The property extending to the sea offers so much potential to redevelop, subject to planning permission, into another residence on the land for a family member, self catering unit or a work studio.
The land unused for many years is displaying a lovely array of colour through its long grasses and heathers, enjoys considerable road frontage and offers the potential to use for grazing and to create a small farm holding. It is also the perfect opportunity for neighbouring farmers to expand their existing holdings as properties of this size rarely present themselves to the market in this lovely part of Connemara.
The Quay at the end of the road was, in times gone by, used by local fishermen and farm families to gain access to other villages along the coast to get their daily needs, from fishing to tending to livestock and to go shopping. The sea surrounding the property is perfect for kayaking and other water based activities.
The properties offering so much potential would make a super holiday home project within an hours drive of Galway City and three hours from Dublin and two hours from Shannon Airport. Furthermore, with the work from home possibilities, where better to work in total tranquility and yet be within easy commuting distance of major urban centres.
The area is well served with broadband and for those with higher internet demand Udaras na Gaeltachta have, throughout Connemara, developed G Teic centres where one can avail of hot desks, meeting rooms, higher technology and much more which enables individuals grow their own business rurally and enjoy a wonderful rural lifestyle for a growing family with all essential needs on its doorstep. The villages of Carraroe & Carna are also only a 20 minute drive.
The property is located within a short drive from local facilities which includes shops, hardware stores, national and second level schools, GAA playing fields, a doctors surgery and bars at Rosmuc while the seaside villages of Kilkieran, Carna, Casla and Carraroe are within easy driving distance.
