Description

'Shanoon,' named after the nearby landmark 'The Point of Sean Uan' (meaning ‘the old lamb'), is a truly exceptional lakeshore property set on the eastern shore of Lough Corrib. A rare opportunity to acquire this most special of lakeshore properties, originally constructed in 1978 and now being offered for sale in what will be the first time the property has sold since constructed. The property's location and aspect are no coincidence as Shanoon is exquisitely positioned to take full advantage of its spectacular elevated setting, commanding breathtaking panoramic views across the lake against the backdrop of the majestic Connemara mountains, maximising both southern and western sunlight, not to mention the spectacular sunsets over the lake. Set on extensive grounds of approximately 2 acres, this prime waterfront property features private mooring facilities for up to five boats, making it a haven for trout anglers and those who enjoy water-based activities and the tranquillity of nature. This unique home offers an ideal opportunity as a family residence or holiday home, combining comfort and an exceptional lakeshore lifestyle. Presented in excellent condition, with newly fitted kitchen and bathrooms, it is ready for immediate occupation while offering scope for personalisation. Extending to approximately 159 sq.m the property's layout is both spacious and well considered, around a reception hall that clearly delineates the living and sleeping quarters, On one side lies the main reception room with marble fireplace, an interconnecting conservatory that fully captures the picturesque lake views, a newly fitted contemporary kitchen and a shower room. At the opposite end of the home, there are 4 / 5 generously sized bedrooms (one en-suite, three with built-in wardrobes). One of these rooms would also lend itself to a home office benefiting from extensive built-in storage. The grounds offer a private and serene setting, ideal for relaxation and outdoor entertaining, including mature gardens populated with trees, shrubs, hedging, flower beds, bounded by traditional stone walls. On site features include a separate boathouse suitable for a lake boat and fishing equipment, a steel garden shed and ample parking for multiple vehicles. The property benefits from oil-fired central heating, PVC double-glazed windows, a private water supply with double filtration, self contained septic tank and high-speed broadband connectivity. Ideally located just 6km from Cross village, 11km from Cong, 12km from Headford, the property provides a peaceful retreat while remaining within easy reach of Galway City, approximately 37km away. The property is well served by transport hubs including Ireland West Airport Knock which is approximately 64km from the property whilst also serving as an excellent base to explore Connemara and the Wild Atlantic Way.
