New phase of homes on sale
O’Malley Construction have just announced the next phase of new homes is now under construction at their Réileán development on the eastern side of Galway City.
This phase at Roscam consists of a range of terraced, end-of-terrace, semi-detached and detached houses. With prices starting at €275,000.
Sizes will vary from 1,200 square feet up to almost 1,800 sq ft and include both three and four-bedroom layouts.
A spokesperson for O’Malley’s told Tribune Property: “All houses are a two-storey design, thus providing a much larger footprint which is particularly noticeable on the ground floor in terms of living areas.
“The houses are also being constructed to modern standards providing high levels of heat conservation, sound proofing, efficient heating systems and energy cost reductions.
“The four-bed houses will achieve a BER rating of A3 and the elevations of all houses will include a combination of brickwork, natural stone and other design features. Prices will start from €275,000.
“We expect the first houses to be ready for occupancy in Spring 2017 and each house will be finished to the individual purchaser’s requirements.
“Most potential purchasers today are very knowledgeable and familiar with the O’Malley’s product. They are very interested in the building specification and energy systems being used to reduce heat loss and energy costs,” the spokesperson said.
Since 2001, O’Malley’s have built a number of developments in the Roscam area including Caiseal Cam, Ros Caoin, Duirling and most recently Boireann Bheag.
The company has planning permission for a new development adjacent to Réileán, consisting of a further 62 units with access from the Oranmore Coast Road, to be released early next year. The development will be called Tuarín.
O’Malley’s are also currently completing a scheme of 74 high-end houses and apartments at Clonskeagh in South Dublin, where large houses sold for in excess of €1 million.
For further information, contact O’Malley Construction on 091 509970 or selling agents O’Donnellan & Joyce on 091 564212.
O’Donnellan and Joyce are handling the sale of a large four-bed detached property located in Shangort Park, Knocknacarra, in Galway.
Located just off Shangort Road, Number 11 was constructed in the early 2000s.
It is a small, quiet development comprised of a mixture or detached and semi-detached homes finished to the highest of standards and overlooking a large green area.
In terms of location, this property has all that one would require and is ideally located within a short walk of quality local schools such as Gaelscoil Mhic Ahmlaigh, Knocknacarra National School and Colaiste Na Coiribe.
An abundance of amenities include the Gateway Shopping Park (B&Q) and Tesco. There are a number of ample green spaces and playing fields close by such as McGrath’s Field, Cappagh Park and Millars Lane.
The property is also located just minutes from the stunning surroundings of Rusheen Bay and Rusheen Woods and the area also boasts a wealth of local amenities.

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.
