Description
We are delighted to bring to the market this 3-bedroom property, located on a picturesque country lane on the foothills of Cashleen Hill. From its elevated site, ‘Ash Trees’ enjoys beautiful views of the countryside along with splendid sea views and one can see far way islands and the coastline of Co. Mayo in the distance. Situated on the famous Connemara Loop, the property sits on a site of circa 0.27 acre.
The cottage is over 100 years old and while the house was renovated in the recent past, it would benefit from further modernisation. Accommodation consists of a living room, kitchen / dining room, three bedrooms and one bathroom. The garden extends to a small field across the road from the cottage and there is also a small traditional stone shed onsite.
