O’Donnellan & Joyce are delighted to offer for sale by auction this 3-bedroom mid-terrace property in Mervue, presenting an exciting opportunity for anyone looking for a full renovation project in a well-established Galway location.

12 Barry Avenue has been vacant for a number of years and is now in need of a complete refurbishment. The property offers buyers the chance to take on a project and transform the existing house into a modern home tailored to their own requirements. With the right vision and investment, there is plenty of scope to unlock the potential of this property.

There may also be grant assistance available for refurbishment works, subject to the relevant criteria and approvals.

The accommodation currently comprises an entrance hall, living room, bathroom, kitchen/dining room and laundry room on the ground floor. Upstairs, there are three bedrooms.

While the property requires significant upgrading, the existing layout provides a good starting point for a comprehensive renovation.

The location is another major attraction. Mervue is a popular and well-connected part of Galway, with Mervue Primary School, Radharc na Mara National School and Galway Community College all close by. ATU’s Creative Arts and Media campus on Wellpark Road is also within easy reach.

There are excellent employment and commercial facilities nearby, including Liosbán and Mervue Industrial Estate, while Galway’s major healthcare and medtech employers are also located close by, including Merlin Park Hospital, Bon Secours Private Hospital, Galway Clinic, Boston Scientific, Merit Medical and Creganna.

For commuters, the M6 and M18 motorway networks are easily accessible, providing good connections to Galway, Dublin, Limerick and beyond.

For buyers looking for a property with potential, 12 Barry Avenue offers the chance to take a dated and vacant house and create something of their own. Whether approached as a renovation project, future family home or investment opportunity, this property is well worth considering.
Viewing is highly recommended for anyone looking for a project in a convenient Galway location.

SOLICITOR WITH CARRIAGE OF SALE: Mr. Karl O'Connor, 2nd Floor, 16 Merchants Road, Galway, H91T3CP.
