Description
Ideally positioned less than two kilometres from the vibrant town of Clifden, this exceptional detached residence enjoys one of the most sought-after settings along Ireland’s spectacular Wild Atlantic Way. Beautifully presented in true turnkey condition, the property extends to approximately 232 sq. m. (2,497 sq. ft.) and offers an outstanding opportunity as a substantial family home, luxury holiday retreat, or boutique hospitality business, having previously operated as a highly successful bed and breakfast. Given the large size of the property, the space could potentially be re-configured, subject to appropriate planning requirements, to accommodate separate accommodation e.g. a granny flat.
Clifden, often referred to as the “Capital of Connemara”, offers an excellent range of amenities including award-winning restaurants and cafés, traditional Irish pubs with live music, supermarkets, boutique shops, schools, medical facilities, churches, hotels, art galleries, and a variety of sporting and leisure activities. The area is renowned for its championship golf courses, beaches, walking trails, fishing, sailing and breathtaking scenery.
Occupying an elevated site just moments from Streamstown Bay and the world-famous Sky Road scenic loop, the property enjoys magnificent views over the Atlantic Ocean, surrounding countryside and the dramatic Connemara landscape.
Upon entering, a bright and welcoming entrance hall sets the tone for the quality and warmth found throughout the home. The spacious sitting room is a wonderfully inviting space, centred around a solid fuel stove while perfectly positioned to capture stunning sea views through its generous windows.
A separate formal dining room offers an equally impressive setting for entertaining, enjoying panoramic views across the Atlantic Ocean and the rolling countryside beyond.
The generously proportioned kitchen has been thoughtfully designed with both everyday family living and entertaining in mind. It features ample preparation and storage space, together with a spacious dining area and an adjoining lounge centred around a second solid fuel stove, creating a warm and sociable heart to the home.
Accommodation comprises seven beautifully appointed en-suite bedrooms, each individually finished in carefully selected, calming colour palettes to provide a peaceful and relaxing atmosphere. The current layout consists of five double bedrooms and two twin bedrooms, offering excellent flexibility for family living or guest accommodation. The principal bedroom enjoys particularly beautiful sea views. The property also has a laundry room/utility room, a large storage room and a small office.
Externally, the property is equally impressive. A sweeping tarmacadam driveway leads to the elevated site, where extensive parking is available for residents and visitors alike. The immaculate rolling lawns are meticulously maintained and are beautifully framed by mature trees, established planting and the rugged mountain backdrop for which Connemara is renowned. The carefully landscaped gardens provide an idyllic setting from which to enjoy the tranquillity and outstanding natural beauty of the surroundings.
A number of useful garden sheds and a garage provide excellent additional storage and practical workspace.
This is a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial coastal residence in one of Connemara’s most desirable locations. Combining breathtaking scenery, generous accommodation, exceptional presentation and proven hospitality credentials, this remarkable property offers a lifestyle opportunity that is truly second to none.
