Built in the early 1900s, this is a wonderful traditional cottage that has been well maintained and tastefully modernised over the years. The cottage is in great condition and enjoys many modern comforts. It was completely rethatched in March 2003 by the well known traditional thatcher Anthony Duggan. The thatch was partly renewed again in January 2005.
This is a lovely, cosy, cottage — together with a large open solid fuel fireplace it has oil fired central heating with radiators throughout, double glazed windows, and boasts one en suite and a separate toilet and wash hand basin. Situated approximately seven miles from Galway and located just off the main road on the Galway side of Claregalway, the property would make a lovely holiday home, an ideal first time buyer’s home, or a lovely home to retire to. This cottage is very private yet not isolated by any means and can be found in the heart of the lovely countryside of Cahergowan. Surrounded by other houses in close proximity, you have the benefit of privacy while still being within easy reach of the neighbours. This is a charming cottage with all the characteristics of a typical traditional cottage but with the added comforts of the ‘mod cons’. To the rear of the cottage is a superb raised deck surrounded with pebbled heather beds and flower beds. To the rear of that again is a fine sized plot bordered with a roadside wall. To the front are two sheds that are in very good condition and are an invaluable bonus to the property as they can have a variety of uses.
Accommodation: Large entrance lobby, kitchen/living room, two bedrooms, one full en suite, extra toilet and wash hand basin.
The cottage stands on c0.196 acre and features oil fired central heating, double glazing, and semi solid floors. *
With a guide price of in the region of €200,000 this would seem like tremendous value for a unique cottage in excellent condition in the heart of the lovely countryside that is only a stone’s throw from Galway.
