PERCHED ON THE banks of Lough Mask, close to Mayo’s border with Galway, Derrypark Lodge wouldn’t look out of place on a postcard.

Part of a wider set of grounds, Lot 1a comes to the market at €590,000. The sale includes 19.3 acres, a two-storey residence, two semi-detached cottages, outbuildings and 429m of lake frontage. There’s also the priceless element of those incredible views, sweeping right across the lake and onto the Partry Mountains.

Floor-to-ceiling windows and glass doors overlook the lake and the surrounding countryside and fill the space with natural light, while panelled ceilings and wood furnishings add a cosy feel.

They were built in 1991 and each include two bedrooms, two bathrooms, an open-plan kitchen and dining area, and a living room. The cottages enjoy a more traditional feel, with Liscannor flagstone floors, stone walls, exposed beams and wood-burning stoves.
