To those who live in this area of south Galway on the cusp of the Burren, it is an area that has it all, from beauty, traditional Irish culture, and great homes to a multitude of amenities in a country setting.
Despite the recent market turmoil bringing enough doom and gloom to last anyone’s lifetime, good news is on the horizon in Kinvara — this week Casey auctioneers is confidently bringing to the market three of the best prospects in the area priced with location and value in mind.
Without doubt ‘Rockfield’, Doorus, represents great value and is priced at €420,000 (open to offers ).
Certain attributes are obvious and indeed have been sampled by the family who have lived there for the last number of years, such as the idyllic and safe location, the tremendous views front and back, the location of the property on a 0.5 acre site allowing for privacy and space on either side, the layout of the accommodation, the proximity of the sea, and all manner of amenities close by in Kinvara village.
Rockfield is a bright L-shaped bungalow with four bedrooms downstairs, three of which have wash hand basins, with a guest wc and family bathroom adjacent.
The sitting room with open fireplace is on the right of the hallway with the fully fitted kitchen/dining room to the rear; chores like dish washing do not seem so arduous when the view in front of you is the ever changing landscape of the Burren hills. There is plenty of space in this room which runs almost right across the rear of the property. The bright, warm, conservatory has been enjoyed at every time of the year. The compact but perfectly adequate utility space is off the kitchen with access to the back garden. The upstairs accommodation has large Velux windows front and back and currently has a large recreational space and two bedrooms at either end, but this space could easily be reconfigured to suit requirements.
With Doorus National School a field away and the bus for two secondary schools stopping outside the house, Rockfield is perfect for any family.
Several other homes of quality can be added to your tour: an immaculately kept four bed dormer bungalow located in Dooruspark (priced at €370,000 ) and a little gem of a four bed single storey home built in the 1980s, renovated in 1996 to a high standard and located on a private tree lined site in Tawnagh East (€370,000 ) on a quiet laneway down to the sea.
