OFFERS INVITED ON €80,000

A lovely site between Lough Bofin and LoughAdrehid, on the route of the old Galway / Clifden railway with good road frontage, trees to the rear and good all round views of the hills and mountains of Connemara.

The auctioneers believe that an application for planning permission by an applicant who is a returning emigrant or who has local housing need will be successful on this site.

The site is between Lough Bofin and Lough Adrehid on a council road, which used to be part of the old Galway to Clifden railway and within easy reach of Oughterard village which is just four miles away.

Oughterard is a charming village on the shores of Lough Corrib - the internationally renowned wild brown trout fishery. Known as the gateway to Connemara, Oughterard is well known for its range of shops, pubs and hotels which cater for the large numbers of visitors who come to take advantage of the fishing, walking, boating and other leisure activities for which this village is justly famous. Golf is available at the 18 hole Oughterard golf course, set in natural parkland and there are six other golf courses within an hour's drive.

The site is 20 miles from the regional capital of the West, Galway City, with its mainline road and rail connections and extensive and substantial cultural, commercial and retail facilities. Shannon Airport is some 2 hours from the property, while Knock Airport is about 1.5 hours and proposals have now been made for a new airport to serve Clifden on the outskirts of the town.

THE SITE: The site is ideally located, level and north facing and in a highly sought after scenic area, with trees to the rear and with attractive views in every direction. A map of the site and a location map are attached to these details. The site extends to 0.84 acres in total and its boundaries along the road and to the rear are marked by yellow stakes.

SERVICES: Mains electricity and Group scheme water supply available.
