A unique development of just nine substantial family homes was constructed in 2003, just off the Maree Road in Oranmore. No 9 Maree Road, a detached five bedroom residence, is one such home and enjoys a very private location within that development. It is set on a 0.32 acre site overlooking a landscaped communal green the front with an area zoned SAC (Special Area of Conservation ) to the rear.
It was built to exacting standards with the use of durable materials, notably cavity block wall construction, precast hollowcore floor slabs, cut limestone features and limestone window sills. For the most part, the floor plan is two rooms deep, two storeys tall with access to a floored attic space, offering 261.27sq m of living accommodation.
Once inside, an impressive double height entrance hall is flooded with light from a tall window overhead and a superbly crafted, sweeping staircase gives an exciting glimpse of what lies ahead. Its tall ceilings, symmetrical double glazed windows and wood panelling add grandeur to the internal space.
The formal living room is located to the left of the hallway which opens into the dining room and kitchen through panelled double doors. A second reception room is to the right of the entrance hall and is adjacent to a guest wc and separate cloak room.
The galley style solid wood kitchen, with its granite worktops and integrated appliances, links seamlessly to the family room, which in turn overlooks the garden to the rear. Three tall windows and double glazed doors are distinctive features of this room along with decorative wood panelling and solid wood flooring.
A utility off the kitchen offers additional storage capacity and houses the laundry appliances, and the gas boiler, which was upgraded in recent years.
The principal bathroom is at first floor level in addition to five double bedrooms, two of which are en suite, and the master bedroom has a generous walk-in wardrobe.
There is off street parking available and the garden to the rear is generous in size, laid in lawn, with a block built shed. The property is on mains water, gas and wastewater connections.
The location of this properly is ideal for school-going children. The village centre and all three local primary schools are within walking distance, as is Calasanctius College secondary school. Commuters enjoy the convenience of access that Oranmore offers to the M6 and M18 motorways. Access to Galway city by car via the M6 motorway is approximately a 15-minute journey during off peak traffic hours, but if one opts to travel by train or bus, commute times are shortened considerably even during rush hour traffic.
Oranmore offers and excellent choice of supermarkets, recreational facilities, and restaurants. Renville Park and playground are wonderful nearby amenities for all to enjoy. Galway Bay Sailing Club, Galway Bay Golf Club and the Oranmore Maree GAA Club and community astro pitch provide the best possible opportunities, for children in particular, to develop in sport.
This exceptional residence boasts a B3 energy rating and viewing is highly recommended.
Guide price is €985,000.00.
