DNG Martin O'Connor Estate Agents are delighted to present to market this stunning coastal holding land of c. 9.85 Ha (24.34 acres) on the south coast of Connemara known as the Connemara Isles.
The property which overlooks Coonawilleen Bay offers tremendous development potential (SPP) to redevelop the cottages and with a little thought, flair and enthusiasm a very special coastal holiday home or permanent residence could be created. The main cottage is set back from the public road and is accessed by a stone boreen road over a short bridge which leads into the holding. In a populated rural area the property stands out on its own and enjoys excellent privacy. Its setting along this rugged coastline positions the property ideally for exploring the many islands and beaches in the region by land or by sea.
The land in one block is a rare find with so much hidden potential has been untouched by modern farming practices, with its native wild heaters and grass land dotted by seven small beaches only fertilised by the iodine from the sea spray of the Atlantic Ocean. These type of Connemara lands are renowned for their wonderful ability to develop the Connemara foals into the wonderful athletic ponies through the natural habitat in which they are reared. The small beaches are wonderful areas to explore in addition to the natural coves which provide excellent crystal clear swimming areas. Directly across the bay are the stunning beaches of Finish & Rusheenamangh while Roundstone is only around the corner by boat.
For the water enthusiasts this is just mecca with wonderful coastlines to explore with the Aran Islands only a short distance away.
