O'Donnellan & Joyce auctioneers presents to the market for sale this truly impressive detached residence on immaculate grounds in the charming village of Oughterard.
The residence at Cregg is undoubtedly one of the most intriguing properties, internally and externally, available to the market.
Situated on the popular Cregg Road just outside the village, the entry of the property offers a deceptively understated but appealing bungalow-style facade with off-street parking, stone-wall frontage, and tree-lined surroundings.
On entering the home the space on offer is evident. Comprising approximately 335.4sq m over two levels, the property offers substantial living accommodation with considerable space in each room.
To the right of entry off the large hallway is an open reception area with vaulted ceilings, perfect for hosting, while the kitchen is the centre point of the home in the middle of the property with adjacent living room that also leads to a beautiful corner sun room giving a glimpse of the beautiful grounds on offer. Additionally, a veranda is accessible that overlooks the landscaped grounds.
The quality of the property is notable throughout, but most distinctly in the kitchen and reception which are fitted with two solid fuel stoves known as Kachelofens. Rarely found in Ireland and more common to southern Germany, these stoves offer a beautiful focal point and stand out immediately upon entry to each room.
The ground floor accommodation is completed with bedroom quarters, utility, service room, guest bathroom, and two main bathrooms, one which avails of its very own sauna.
The bedroom quarters are arranged over the two storeys with ample space in each of the four bedrooms. The main bedroom offers superb accommodation with its own dressing area and en suite with large Jacuzzi-style bath.
The lower ground floor is accessible via a spiral staircase and offers two of the bedrooms, an open reception hall that leads to the gardens, and a further wet room.
While the house is truly impressive, the external space on offer is breathtaking. Sitting on approximately 1.35 acres, the grounds offer manicured gardens and planting, thoughtfully integrated into the natural landscape.
Ample space is on offer for outdoor hosting, gardening, and plentiful recreational opportunities. The property avails of its own tennis court, a former stable building that could offer potential for alternative use, and a timber-framed outhouse giving plenty of opportunity to create a work from home environment.
Additionally, the property benefits from a rear entrance that leads directly to the village, giving easy access to all local amenities.
Situated minutes from the centre of Oughterard village, Cregg Road has long been considered a sought after residential location. The quiet road offers tree-lined surroundings and a quiet environment, while having all that is required on the doorstep.
Oughterard is a popular village due to the easy access to Galway city, perfectly situated at the gateway to Connemara and availing of famous landmarks and adjacent to Lough Corrib, making it a destination for angling enthusiasts.
This is a rare opportunity to acquire a truly impressive home in an idyllic location. The property is undoubtedly one of the most impressive residences to come to market this year. Viewing is highly recommended to truly appreciate all that is on offer.
The BER is D1. Asking price is €525,000.
