This four-bed is a great find for €495,000.
SET ON A beautifully landscaped site in Currinara, this four-bed home makes the most of the stunning views of Lough Conn and Nephin. Ideal for families craving more space, style and serene surroundings, this 195 m² home offers a blend of countryside charm that’s not in total isolation. Foxford town is just a short drive away.
Upon entering, you’re welcomed by a cosy yet spacious interior that marries classic elegance with warm charm. The front porch opens into a wide hallway with polished timber floors and intricate ceiling coving. Step into the large living room and you’re met with a bright, airy space with double-aspect windows, including a beautiful bay window that perfectly frames views of Nephin and the lush surrounding greenery. A stunning marble fireplace with a granite hearth serves as a focal point, perfect for family gatherings or cosy nights in.
Adjacent is a separate lounge featuring rustic, exposed timber beams and access to a patio that’s perfect for entertaining and relaxing. Large windows bring the outside in, giving this room a delightful mix of indoor comfort and natural beauty.
Designed with both style and functionality in mind, the kitchen is equipped with a solid-fitted workspace, tiled backsplash and a unique central island with red brick and granite accents. A charming oil stove with a red brick surround and timber mantel completes the rustic feel. With ample counter space and modern appliances, this kitchen is both a practical workspace and a beautiful gathering spot. Adjacent is a bright sunroom, where floor-to-ceiling windows showcase the wonderful views.
The home offers four generously sized bedrooms, each with solid timber floors and unique features. Two bedrooms include built-in wardrobes, while the primary bedroom has an en suite bathroom and double-aspect windows that frame the countryside views. Each room is thoughtfully designed to include abundant natural light and ample space.
This home’s outdoor space is a true highlight. The front lawn is beautifully manicured, while mature trees and shrubs line the property, providing natural privacy. A unique feature is the stream that flows across the property, creating a charming, year-round waterfall near a rockery at the back. The site also includes off-street parking for several cars and a spacious double garage.
For outdoor enthusiasts, this property is a dream come true. Enjoy outdoor dining on the front patio, unwind by the built-in garden BBQ or simply take in the panoramic views of the lakes from various vantage points on the site.
One of the most attractive features of this property is its location. While it feels like a serene countryside retreat, the house is only 1.5 km from Foxford town centre. You’ll have quick access to essential amenities, while nearby places like Ballina, Castlebar and Ireland West Airport Knock are all within easy reach.
