16 Galway residential and investment properties form part of nationwide sale
A total of 16 properties in Galway – with combined reserve prices in excess of €2 million – are set to go under the hammer as part of a nationwide auction taking place at the end of this month.
The lots in the city and county are part of a catalogue of more than 200 residential and investment properties across the country with a combined value in excess of €24m.
Jonathan Fenn, Allsop’s Divisional Director, said there is a strong mix of Galway residential properties included in the auction, which takes place in the RDS in Dublin on Thursday, April 28.
“Following on from three successful auctions in Q1, we have assembled 213 lots for the first of three auctions to take place in Q2. The catalogue provides primarily residential assets but with a significant commercial offering of over 70 lots.
“A number of multi-family lots will undoubtedly draw interest from investors, given the asset management and development opportunities. This will bring much needed accommodation to families under pressure to secure a home,” said Mr Fenn.

DNG Martin O’Connor Land Sales are holding an online auction on May 11, where two lots of land in Letterfrack will go under the hammer.
The first lot is an opportunity to acquire a cottage with shed ruins on 4.34ha (10.72 acres) of top-quality land at Attirowerty. Enjoying incredible views in all direction, this land is one of the most outstanding opportunities to acquire a lovely holding of meticulously maintained farmland in the Connemara region in many years.
Bordering the Traheen River, the cottage – dating back to the 1800s – is a traditional stone built property under a galvanised roof laid out in two rooms with open fireplaces in each room. Across the yard there are the ruins of a large shed which could be renovated.
Looking south the cottage enjoys views of Ballinakill Bay, Tully Hill and Letter Hill to the west whilst to the north Diamond Hill and the Mweelrea mountains with many more hills of south Mayo are visible in the distance.
Fully enclosed by stonewalls and concrete post with wire fencing, the land laid out in three large sections provides excellent grazing with a cattle holding yard and cattle crush.
The land is suited for all types of livestock grazing with cattle farming been the main enterprise over the years on the holding. Due to its excellent order the land would be the perfect location for breeding Connemara ponies and also ideal for holding sheep due to its field system and good boundaries.
The property presents itself as an excellent proportion for those looking for a cottage hideaway that they can renovate to their own style in this scenic part of Ireland with a wonderful atmosphere surrounding it. The lands are ideally suited to existing landowners looking to expand or those looking to set up a small holding centrally located between Clifden and Letterfrack.
Lot 2, consisting of commonage lands in three sections at Attirowerty and Baunoge, amounts to 25.5 acres and is also for sale by online auction on the day.
