As well as overlooking Loughrea Lake, from inside you’ll spot the Sliabh Aughty Mountains in the distance. Crafted with meticulous attention to detail inside and out, the house makes the most of the brilliant countryside views.

From the moment you step into the grand entrance hall adorned with solid marble flooring, the ambiance is apparent.

Upstairs is where you’ll find each generously-sized bedroom. Offering comfort and privacy, the main suite features a floor-to-ceiling window to bring the views inside. What’s more is that you can step onto the balcony from another bedroom and immerse yourself in nature first thing each morning.

The house also has six bathrooms, so no one will be caught short either.

Outside, the house is surrounded by an expansive garden that has been landscaped and features a cobble brick driveway, as well as ample patio areas, to create an outdoor oasis perfect for outdoor entertaining.

Beyond its aesthetic appeal, the house is wholly functional and modern, too, with its geothermal heating system and a Bose amplifier sound surround system. The home enjoys a healthy B2 BER, so it’s a cosy home considering its large size.
