Potential for rental or site development
DNG Martin O’Connor are holding an online auction on May 11 to sell a unique opportunity in Carraroe – two properties being sold together at Cuilleain.
The 1980s bungalow and a cottage to the rear are on a 1.21-acre site of Zoned Residential Land with a large area of the plot that is zoned as Residential Phase 1.
The properties – which require completion works – comprise a traditional stone-built cottage and a bungalow dwelling house.
The main dwelling to the front is an early 1980s bungalow which is in the process of being renovated and consists of an entrance hallway, kitchen and three bedrooms. The first floor is laid out into the three double bedrooms ideal for many uses and a shower room.
This property is partially completed and requires substantial works to finish it.
The cottage to the rear of the bungalow is a two-roomed building on an elevated plot which has been partially renovated under a new galvanised roof and double glazed windows.
This building would make an excellent guest cottage or ideally a work from home studio or workshop.
The site extending to 1.21 acres facing north enjoys incredible views of the Conamara hills, while to the rear there is an open field with frontage on to the An Cuilleain housing development.
The properties are within easy walking distance of the village of Carraroe, which offers excellent amenities in terms of shopping, schools, recreational and dining. Other amenities include a pharmacy and local church.
According to selling agent Martin O’Connor, the properties present an excellent opportunity for those who wish to complete the dwelling to their own style and also have a potential income from the second dwelling on site.
The properties could also offer potential to be used as holiday rentals in the popular Carraroe area.
Furthermore due to its zoning the land has potential on its own or in conjunction with its neighbours for the creation of an individual house or a group of housing, subject to planning permission.
Situated on a country lane the property is only a short distance from the seaside while the word famous Coral beach, Trá an Dóilin is also close by.
The Advised Minimum Value is €225,000. For further information or to arrange a viewing, contact DNG Martin O’Connor on 091 866708.
