Abbeyknockmoy, Co.Galway

This well located house is tucked away in a private, tranquil setting next to Ryehill Church and is minutes away from the picturesque villages of both Monivea and Abbeyknockmoy with their amenities of schools, shops, pubs and restaurants.

Having started life in 1880 as a primary school, it has recently been tastefully restored and transformed into the contemporary, generously proportioned family house it is today.

The property, framed by mature beech trees, features a stone boundary wall to the front with low maintenance gardens and a sizeable tarmac driveway. To the rear a fabulous 640 square foot deck runs the full width of the house with steps leading down to a sunny west-facing large garden and workshop, flanked on one side by evergreen trees.

Internally the owners have blended a contrast of traditional with contemporary. This is immediately obvious as you enter from the porch into the impressive hallway with double floor height ceiling, oak stairwell and porcelain tiling.

In the chic kitchen/dining room the modern décor incorporates sleek wenge units, exquisite porcelain floor tiling, integrated electrical appliances and plenty of storage – including a large pullout larder.

The large, beautifully presented, sitting room is a great place to relax and features an impressive original stone and brick fireplace inset with a trendy gas fire. Double doors lead through to the sun lounge area with oak flooring, vaulted ceiling and access to the deck.

All four bedrooms are of generous proportions and have been tastefully decorated. The master bedroom is spacious with a large sliding wardrobe and has a sizeable en suite with electric shower.
