Description

New Quay Real Estate is very excited to bring to the market this adorable quintessential thatched Irish cottage set amid mature lush green surroundings on a gated private site in the highly sought after area of Roveagh on the Kilcornan Wood Road just a couple of minutes from Clarinbridge and the Wild Atlantic Way. While compact this fabulous traditional cottage can comfortably sleep five people with two bedrooms, configured as a double and a triple, with plenty of additional space for wardrobe storage. An open plan kitchen area and living room are served by a beautiful original fireplace with fresh contemporary floor tiling a tasteful compliment to the circa 1900s keystone arch. The twin door solid fuel stove includes a back boiler that can be connected if desired given the easy access to the hot water infrastructure which also includes immersion heating. The bathroom benefits from a full bath with integrated electric shower and the same eye-catching patterned tiling that continues into the hall to the hot press access. The entire floor area bar the bathroom and hall has newly installed light oak engineered wood flooring throughout. The gorgeous site is adorned with mature trees that frame the property to dramatic effect. A beautiful single pitch Burren Crag Stone outbuilding with its mammoth natural stone lintel offers a substantial circa 17 square metre floorspace and would make a cracking chill-out space or private shebeen along with other potential uses with water and electric connection already present. The grounds currently include a truck body for storage which the vendor will be removing as part of the sale unless the scenario arises whereby an interested party may wish to retain said unit which can then be discussed. If this space is to be vacated it would make an ideal pitch for a chalet SPP given the height and south facing aspect along with an ideal gradient to connect to the existing wastewater pipework. The septic tank is off site on the property opposite and as we understand it a right of way (for servicing/maintenance) exists by way of prescriptive easement given it has been servicing the property for well over twenty years. This actually benefits the property in that any development of the site SPP is not compromised by the minimum distance requirements of a structure’s proximity to tank and percolation area. Unlike many of its counterparts the thatch roof benefits from box profile steel roof sheeting underneath and we understand that full insurance including fire cover is available with O’Callaghan Insurances based in Dundalk. While the term ‘prime countryside location’ gets thrown around and assigned to far lesser areas, there is no ambiguity when it comes to this property. A five-minute drive brings you to spectacular coastline and breath-taking natural beauty. Eight minutes and you’re at the Oranmore roundabout and Galway City limits. Morans on the Weir and Clainbridge, the home of the world renowned Oyster Festival including a multitude of other gems are within a couple of kilometres with Junction 17 of the M18 just a seven minute drive.
