At the end of a long private driveway, behind a pillared gateway, sits a detached home in open coastal countryside, close to the shores of Elly Bay. Across the water lies Belmullet, and beyond the rugged coastline and hills of Erris. At the moment the mature trees around the house screen the sea from view. With some selective thinning, those views could be opened again. The setting is quiet, open to the sky, and a short drive from Belmullet town and all its amenities.

The exterior is well maintained. The house has a modern slate roof, fresh painted external walls, a stone-clad gable and traditional red chimney pots.

The house sits well back from the public road on a generous site. Mature trees along the boundaries give the house shelter and privacy. A large yard gives plenty of parking. A substantial detached outbuilding offers workshop, storage or garage space, and has potential for conversion, subject to planning permission. On every side there is open countryside and changing coastal light.

Inside the house is a blank canvas, ready for its next owner to finish it to their own taste.

The front door has a stained-glass rose panel and opens into a bright hallway, where a solid pine staircase leads up to the attic. The house features many period details: ornate ceiling roses, decorative cornicing, panelled pine doors and stained-glass rose detailing on doors and windows throughout.
