Period Property For Sale: Galway

Agricultural Holding, Lough Inagh Valley, Connemara, Co. Galway
Charming agricultural holding of 8 acres with historic residence located deep in the heart of the Inagh Valley

It is recorded that Patrick Kavanagh and Oliver St. John Gogarty were regular visitors here in times gone by, no doubt inspired by the secluded beauty and mystical atmosphere. Prepare to be enchanted - this is a magical setting with a most beautifully presented dwelling. It is elegant, artistic and secluded, yet not isolated. Muted pastels with draping chiffon dominate the interior decor, with the accommodation comprising open plan dining room, kitchen and sitting room, bathroom, shower and three bedrooms. The furnishings are open to discussion.

The property comprises over 8 acres of land set out in paddocks and accessed via a private tree-lined driveway not far from Lough Inagh Lodge Hotel. Externally there is a fine renovated stone shed with electricity and water. The lands boast a wealth of well established timbers, hazel, sycamore and historic oak, whilst the lawns are strewn with an abundance of meadow flowers, including a rare old Irish bluebell strain. There is a mature and well-stocked vegetable garden, with a variety of organic produce. The owners have achieved a controlled cultivation of samphire and other salt marsh plants in tanks and they are currently working on a purely natural anti-midge compound made from a tree on the site. The owners have also developed a sapling planter which is already being successfully marketed.

This property would be ideal for use as an agricultural small holding with emphasis on biodiversity and self-sustaining growth. Close by with easy access lies Derryclare for fishing and watersports. Recess is a short ten minute drive away, whilst Leenane, Clifden and Roundstone can be reached within half an hour. This is a beautifully positioned property which is sure to command serious interest.
