Description
SITUATION AND AMENITIES: The property is set in an elevated position with panoramic mountain views in every direction, at the end of a council road. This delightful cottage is both secluded and very private, but not isolated, and is in a popular and highly sought after scenic area, within easy reach of Oughterard village which is just four miles away. Oughterard is well known for its range of shops, pubs, banks and hotels which cater for the large numbers of visitors who come to take advantage of the walking, boating and other leisure activities for which this area is justly famous. The property is close to Lough Adrehid, which it partially overlooks, and Lough Bofin. Golf is available at the 18 hole Oughterard golf course, set in natural parkland and there are six other golf courses within an hour`s drive. THE HOUSE: The house comprises an original North facing cottage, probably constructed in the 1930`s, which has been extensively renovated and upgraded. Consequently, the cottage is constructed of part stone and part concrete block, all under a fibre slate and small flat roof. There exists sufficient space on all sides of the property to extend the existing dwelling house, and planning permission was obtained in 2004 to extend the cottage from its existing size of 1,070 sq.ft. to 2072 sq.ft. The house has oil fired central heating system, double glazing throughout, a new septic tank installed and is presented in excellent condition. The house is being sold with all the curtains, blinds, carpets included. Other contents may be available by negotiation.
