\Alençon is a magnificent architect designed house on an elevated hillside site with landscaped gardens and sweeping gravel driveway overlooking the Lough Kip River. The property is located on the Galway side of Moycullen village just 10 minutes’ commute to the city.
Moycullen’s scenic setting in close proximity to Galway city means that the village has become a desirable residential location. The village has established itself as an excellent place to dine, with a good selection of restaurants for all tastes in addition to good pubs and entertainment venues. The farmers’ market on a Friday is very popular with the locals and visitors to the area.
The house is an exceptionally spacious property which takes full advantage of the wonderful south west aspect the site enjoys. It has the potential to be further extended to the rear and into the first floor attic space. The house boasts many special features including high ceilings, large reception rooms, double fronted white marble open fireplaces in living room and dining room, solid maple flooring throughout, custom made timber windows, designer curtains and Roman blinds.
The reception rooms flow naturally into one another, which makes this property an ideal home for those who enjoy great space and also ideal for entertaining. There is a fully fitted solid maple Shaker kitchen with granite worktops and top quality integrated appliances. The bedrooms are all double bedrooms, two with en suite shower rooms, and the master suite has a dressing room. This superbly maintained property is the perfect country residence on the outskirts of a fabulous city and equally charming village with every essential facility and amenity.
The property is bound by a large granite stone wall to the front and is entered through two double gates onto a sweeping yellow granite gravel driveway that leads to the rear of the house. The gardens are full of life with easily maintained herbaceous borders planted with miniature trees and heathers. The large natural rocks that protrude from the ground are a wonderful feature. There is a natural woodland to the rear of the property with and a tree-lined boundary on both sides of the property offering excellent privacy. A large decked area off the kitchen wraps around part of the dining room; this could be classed as an extension of the kitchen as on sunny afternoons and evenings as it is excellent for sitting out and enjoying a barbecue or listening to the river across the road and the different varieties of birds in the gardens and woodland.
