Description

Situated in the heart of the quiet rural village of Carracastle, Co. Mayo, this former parochial house presents a wonderful opportunity to acquire a property rich in character, history and original charm. Extending to approximately 200 sq. m., the property retains many of its attractive period features, including beautiful tiled flooring, decorative coving, high ceilings and traditional sash windows, all of which contribute to its distinctive character and offer a glimpse of its former grandeur. While the property would benefit from a programme of renovation and modernisation, it offers enormous scope for those seeking to restore and transform a substantial period residence into a truly special home. Its generous accommodation, combined with the wealth of original features, provides an excellent canvas for someone with vision. Externally, the property occupies a large mature 0.89 acre site, offering considerable outdoor space and further potential. A detached mass concrete garage is also included, providing useful storage or workshop facilities. Included in the sale is a parcel of wooded land extending to approximately 2.4 acres, located approximately 700m from the house. The land has frontage onto the old Charlestown Road (L1331) and is predominantly covered in established broadleaf trees and natural scrub. Carracastle is a small, peaceful village, offering a tranquil rural setting while remaining conveniently located close to the larger town of Charlestown. The property enjoys easy access to the N5 main road, providing good connectivity to surrounding towns and amenities, and is situated less than 14km from Ireland West Airport Knock. A rare opportunity to acquire a substantial former parochial residence in a peaceful village setting, with excellent potential to create a beautiful home while preserving its original character and charm. Prospective purchasers should note that the property is a protected structure, and any proposed renovation or alteration works will be subject to the relevant planning and conservation requirements.
