This beautiful seaside hideaway on the wild Atlantic Way enjoys breathtaking views of the Burren on one side and Galway Bay on the other. Steps at the bottom of the secluded garden lead to Crushoa pier, perfect for year-round swimming, boating, kayaking, and paddle boarding, as long as you don’t mind bumping into the local seals that frequent the pier!
This coastal idyll is just 2km from Kinvara village. Inside, there’s an effortless flow between living and sleeping spaces. Each room has its unique vista of pond, sea or the Burren. The stunning cathedral-style kitchen/diner windows beckon in light and warmth which flood the space year round. Separate pantry and laundry area adjoin the kitchen. The majestic wooden floored living room is open plan with dramatic vaulted ceiling, stove fireplace with large double aspect windows framing the sea views beyond, which can be enjoyed lounging on the bay window seat. There are three double bedrooms and an office on the ground floor and a further bedroom/office upstairs. The generous master suite has a full bathroom en suite with ornate mosaic tiling, double sink, claw foot bathtub and walk-in shower. The master bedroom has French double doors opening onto the back garden.
Outside, in the tranquil grounds accessed up a gravel driveway flanked by a drystone wall, there are two ponds and a “secret garden” among the fruit trees. A gate at the bottom of the garden leads to Crushoa Pier, where the current owners swim and kayak year round and have a boat moored. It is particularly useful during mackerel season. The pier forms part of Galway Bay Complex Special Area of Conservation, making this location extra special. The property is nestled in nature and its beautiful natural gardens have been designed to mirror the coast with ponds, Burren limestone paving, as well as cherry, apple, fig and pear trees. There is parking for several vehicles in the grounds around the house. Viewing is highly recommended and guaranteed not to disappoint.
The BER is C3. Asking price is €895,000.
