O’Donnellan & Joyce will conclude its end of year auctions on Friday December 17 at 3pm in the Victoria Hotel, Eyre Square, Galway.
O’Donnellan & Joyce has sold more houses by public auction than any other agents throughout the country in a year when values have dropped significantly. According to auctioneer Colm O’Donnellan the auction room is the best way to determine what a property is worth. Auction rooms attract willing sellers who have realistic prices on the properties in the current market, and buyers who are looking for value and are able to purchase as they have access to money. Next week, in the final auction of the year, three properties will be placed up for sale at very discounted prices.
The first property which will be auctioned is an executor sale comprising a detached residence on 0.940 acre at The Weir, Kilcolgan. This property is located on a majestic site which is very elevated and offers excellent views of Kilcolgan Weir and Kilcolgan Castle and inlet. The property, which neighbours the internationally renowned Moran’s of the Weir, is in need of upgrading and offers exceptional accommodation with large living room, kitchen, utility, three bedrooms with master en suite, bathroom, and two garages.
This home at Riverside, The Weir, Kilcolgan, is being placed on the market at incredible value with an AMV of €195,000. The solicitor with carriage of sale is Tom O’Donnell, John C O’Donnell & Co, Atlantic House, Prospect Hill, Galway, phone (091 ) 561128. Open viewings will take place on Saturday and Thursday from 11am to 12 noon.
The second property which will be placed up for sale is No 2 Cloch Óg, Oranmore. The vendor, who is overseas, has listed it at an incredibly attractive price of €220,000 for a five bedroom detached residence. The property, which is located close to the heart of Oranmore village, was constructed within the last five years. This modern detached residence offers space in abundance internally with accommodation comprising entrance hall, living room, family room, kitchen/dining room, utility, five bedrooms, one en suite, bathroom, and attic.
This is a wonderful opportunity for anybody looking for a modern, spacious, family home in the heart of Oranmore with all facilities on its doorstep.

The third property to go under the hammer is No 3 Bowling Green, situated in the heart of the city centre and described by the auctioneers as the perfect city residence at a very attractive AMV of €170,000. No 3 is located directly across from the home of Nora Barnacle, the partner of writer James Joyce. The location is steeped in history as it is one of Galway’s oldest and most established residential areas.
