Description
Behind its traditional façade, Loretto offers a rare chance to secure a substantial period home in the heart of Lower Salthill. Set on approximately 0.2 acres, this protected residence occupies a prime position between Galway City and Salthill Village, placing every amenity within easy reach.
Dating from the early 1930s, the property retains the charm and proportions synonymous with homes of its era. High ceilings, original fireplaces, decorative coving and generously sized rooms reflect the quality and character of the period, while the overall scale of the accommodation provides enormous scope for modernisation and refurbishment to suit contemporary living.
Rarely found in such a central Salthill location, the property enjoys a walled front garden laid to lawn with mature hedging and to the rear is an expansive yard with a west-facing rear aspect, providing ample off-street parking. The combination of a protected period residence, generous grounds and a highly desirable address creates an exceptional opportunity for those seeking a landmark home.
Just moments from Salthill Promenade, Galway City Centre, excellent schools, University of Galway and University Hospital Galway, this is an address that continues to enjoy enduring demand from owner-occupiers and investors alike.
A home of character, scale and heritage, Loretto offers the opportunity to create something truly special in one of Galway's most prestigious residential locations.
