Ganty Lodge is a tranquil, picturesque, setting for this beautiful four bedroom detached residence, which comes with almost 21 acres of quality land and includes a large shed with three stables and tack room, garage, and garden studio. Located just five minutes from Craughwell village and 25 minutes from Galway city, it is a most impressive and well laid out residential and agricultural holding maintained and upgraded to a very high standard by the current owners over many years.
Entering the property via a tree-lined private avenue, which eventually opens to reveal the main residence, you instantly get a sense this property has a unique charm with its surrounding fertile paddocks, mature native trees, south-facing garden, and even a large, enclosed, treehouse expertly perched high up in an old ash tree. Constructed in 1998, the house has a style, layout, and quality of finish befitting the scenic setting. Through the entrance lobby the large open plan kitchen-dining area is positioned to the rear and south side of the house, opening out onto the rear patio and garden. The family or sitting room was once two separate rooms but is now one large space with a dual aspect overlooking the fields. A large utility room and guest wc complete the ground floor accommodation. Upstairs, four bedrooms and a shower room are positioned off the landing area. The main bedroom suite takes full advantage of the views with a large south facing balcony and also includes an electric fire and en suite bathroom with Jacuzzi bath and separate shower.
Externally, the total holding extends to approximately 20.78 acres of good quality pasture land, laid out in a number of fields with fenced/hedgerow boundaries and bounded by the Dunkellin River to the south. It is currently under grass and has been grazed by horses for several years. Within the grounds there is a detached shed or garage, a farmyard, and a well-equipped 205sq m shed/stables complete with secure tack room. There is also a cleverly refurbished old shed, now presented and fully fitted out with power and a picture window overlooking the land, a perfect retreat to escape and unwind with a book.
Ganty Lodge has much to offer. It is full of charm, tranquillity, and is situated in a vibrant community renowned for a strong tradition in equestrian interests and farming. It is also close to major urban areas and the motorway network.
