Description
FOR SALE- An outstanding opportunity to acquire a truly unique, architecturally designed five-bedroom family residence of exceptional quality and presence, set on a private, mature site of approximately 0.25 hectares in the heart of County Mayo, just minutes from the N5 national route. This striking home combines timeless architectural design, generous proportions and superior craftsmanship, creating a residence of real distinction that also represents remarkable value when compared with the cost of constructing a similar property in today’s market. Extending to approximately 265 sq. metres (2,846 sq. ft.), the property has been thoughtfully designed to maximise light, space and architectural impact, while offering a highly functional and flexible layout ideally suited to modern family living. From the moment of arrival, the quality of the design is immediately apparent. The vaulted entrance porch and hall, enhanced by glass block detailing, create a striking first impression, flooding the interior with natural light and setting the tone for the exceptional accommodation throughout. The internal layout incorporates feature step-down levels to the principal reception rooms, adding both visual interest and a sense of spatial definition across the ground floor. The living room and sitting room are both fitted with feature fireplaces and stoves, while the sitting room further benefits from a vaulted ceiling with tongue-and-groove timber finish, creating a warm yet impressive focal space. Tiled and hardwood flooring flows through the main living areas, and a sunroom / dining area with step-down floor and excellent natural light provides an ideal setting for both everyday living and entertaining. The kitchen is a beautifully appointed classic fitted kitchen, finished with granite worktops, a gas hob and cooker, an integrated dishwasher, and an abundance of storage and work space, making it both practical and elegant. Accommodation includes five generously proportioned bedrooms, offering excellent flexibility for family life, home working or commuting. On the ground floor, there is a spacious ensuite bedroom, ideal for guests or multi-generational living, along with a second bedroom that can equally function as a playroom, gym or home office. The first floor introduces a true wow factor, with the master bedroom suite standing out as a feature in its own right, complete with walk-in wardrobes, a large ensuite shower room, and exceptional space and privacy. The family bathroom is finished to a high standard and includes a jacuzzi bath, adding a further element of luxury. The property is constructed with hollow core first floor construction and benefits from oil fired central heating, a septic system on site, and supply via the Callow Group Water Scheme, with quality finishes evident throughout. Externally, the residence is set within a private and mature setting, approached by a well-maintained wrap-around driveway. The grounds are carefully maintained and include a detached double garage, beech hedging providing excellent privacy and shelter, and a decking area ideal for outdoor living, entertaining and relaxation. From the front of the property, there are pleasant views towards the Nephin Mountain Range, enhancing the sense of space, countryside appeal and tranquillity. *Floor plans and measurements in photos.
