This unique property was a mid 1930’s cottage that was completely renovated and a 2 storey extension added in 1997. A 2 bedroom self-contained unit was added in 2001. The house is on a site of over one acre of beautiful natural gardens with shoreline frontage and a floating Jetty onto Grange lough and the River Shannon system.
Entering the house you are greeted by a beautiful mosaic glass art by Michelle O’Donnell of Glasshammer studios, which depicts the views of water and mature trees that feature here. The dining area is the heart of this house with views over the water and access out onto the deck area. There is a wood panelled ceiling and Stanley oil range surrounded by a brick hearth giving a very warm feel. The kitchen which is open to the dining area has built in units and a high ceiling. A spiral staircase allows access to a dormer office area, ideal for the remote worker. There is a utility area plumbed for washing machine & dryer that links to the two storey extension and the self-contained 2 bed.

The remaining gardens are mainly laid in lawns but also feature a wild flower garden, fantastic tree house with its own little deck area and views of the water. and a natural stone feature close to the shoreline makes for another beautiful seating area in the evening sun. There is a long established cut that provides a sheltered berthing space with floating Jetty from Banagher Pre-cast.
