O’Donnellan & Joyce is looking forward to bringing the hammer down on two unique properties in the auction room tomorrow.
First is a most imposing residence located in New Village on the main road on the Furbo side of Barna.
Built about four years ago by its present owner, this architecturally designed property is a house of immense charm and character and is one of the finest family homes to come to the market in this wonderful location in quite some time.
This unique executive style residence of gracious accommodation of c2,600sq ft stands on an elevated site of approximately 0.5 of an acre and enjoys uninterrupted panoramic views of Galway Bay, the hills of Clare, the Aran Islands, and the surrounding coastline. It also boasts breathtaking views over the rolling countryside along with a host of luxury items not often found. This stunning home has been meticulously thought out with flair and taste in both architectural layout and interior design.
Notable features of this property include solid maple skirting, door frames, and architraves throughout; maple veneered doors with polished steel handles; brushed steel light switches; hollowcore floor at first floor level; underfloor heating on ground and first floors; solar panels; and pressurised water system.
A charming ultra modern house, this property is located on the main Galway to Spiddal road. However because it is well set back off the main thoroughfare with the emphasis on living space to the rear of the house, the noise levels are practically nil.
The advised minimum value is excess €1,000,000. Final open viewing takes place today (Thursday ) from 3.30pm to 4.30pm. The solicitor with carriage of sale is Ms Mairéad Bourke, Market Lane, Bridge Street, Westport, Co Mayo, phone (098 ) 27333.
Second up is a bungalow standing on a large site in Corcullen, Bushypark.
This large bungalow property was built in the mid 90s and extends to c1,681sq ft which does not include the two bedroom chalet located to the rear.
Standing on a magnificent elevated site of c half an acre, the property enjoys wonderful views over Lough Corrib and the rolling countryside in the distance. It is located just metres off the main road in what has to be described as a superb location — Glenlo Abbey Hotel, Moycullen village, and all other local amenities are within easy reach. It is approximately 10 minutes from the city, NUIG, and UHG, and is located only 2.5km from Ballyquirke Lough, famous for its fishing.
Corcullen has long been associated with class and luxury living, and with a price tag of €450,000 this would seem like tremendous value for a four bedroom bungalow together with a substantial outhouse on a large site, especially in this location.
Accommodation comprises: entrance porch; hall; corridor; living room; dining room/family room; kitchen; four large bedrooms, one en suite; main bathroom. The chalet comprises: hallway; living room/kitchen; two bedrooms; bathroom.
Final open viewing today (Thursday ) from 2pm to 3pm.
Solicitor with carriage of sale: Ms Mary O’Malley, Russell & Co solicitors, Moycullen, Co Galway, phone (091 ) 556356
The auction for these two properties will take place tomorrow (Friday ) at 3pm in the Harbour Hotel, Dock Road, Galway.
