Description
Vincent Walsh Auctioneers are delighted to present to the market this charming four-bedroom country farmhouse, full of character and potential. Built in 1928 and set on a generous c.0.59-acre site, this attractive residence is ideally located just off the R332 Ballinrobe Road, enjoying a peaceful rural setting while remaining highly accessible. The property is only 15 minutes from Headford Town and 20 minutes from Tuam, offering the perfect balance of countryside living with convenient access to amenities. Headford Town provides an excellent range of services including national and secondary schools, supermarket, shops, church, hotel, modern sporting facilities, and public transport links. Tuam offers an even wider selection of amenities and services. This warm and welcoming home offers endless potential for those seeking rural living, hobby farming, or a more self-sufficient lifestyle. The property is very much a blank canvas, ready for the new owner to put their own personal stamp on it, while retaining its classic farmhouse charm throughout. Accommodation comprises an entrance hall leading to a cosy family room featuring a solid fuel range with back boiler. There is also a spacious sitting room / ground-floor bedroom complete with an ensuite wet room, fully tiled and fitted with an electric shower. The kitchen is fitted with cabinets and includes electrical and gas appliances, completing the ground-floor layout. Upstairs, the property offers four well-proportioned bedrooms and a main family bathroom with bathtub. Please note that all rooms on both the ground and first floors have been dry-lined, adding comfort and efficiency. Externally, the property benefits from two large storage sheds, providing approximately 87m² of storage space, ideal for workshops, stables, or equipment storage. The expansive site offers ample room for gardening or future expansion, while mature trees and boundary hedging provide excellent privacy and shelter. This is an ideal opportunity for buyers looking to create a beautiful rural home in a strong location. With space to grow and room to breathe, this property offers the perfect blend of peace, charm, and potential. Arrange a viewing today - this opportunity won't last long!
