This spectacular seaside hideaway on the Wild Atlantic Way enjoys breath-taking views of the Burren on one side and Galway bay on the other. Steps at the bottom of the secluded garden lead to Crushoa pier, perfect for year ‘round swimming, boating, kayaking, and paddle boarding, as long as you don’t mind bumping into the local seals that frequent the pier! This unique coastal idyll is just 2km from Kinvara village.

Inside, there’s a natural flow between living and sleeping spaces. Each room has its unique vista of pond, sea or the Burren. The stunning cathedral style kitchen/diner windows beckon in light and warmth which flood the space year round. Separate pantry and laundry area adjoin the kitchen. The majestic, wooden floored living room is open plan with dramatic vaulted ceiling, stove fireplace with large double aspect windows framing the sea views beyond, which can be enjoyed lounging on the bay window seat.

There are 3 double bedrooms and an office area on the ground floor and a further bedroom/office upstairs. The generous master suite has a full bathroom ensuite with ornate mosaic tiling, double sink, claw foot bathtub and walk in shower. The master bedroom has French double doors opening onto the back garden.

Outside, in the tranquil grounds accessed up a gravel driveway flanked by a drystone wall, there are two ponds and a “secret garden” among the fruit trees. A gate at the bottom of the garden leads to Crushoa Pier where current owners swim and kayak year ‘round and have a boat moored. Particularly useful during Mackerel season. The pier forms part of Galway Bay Special Conservation area making this location extra special. The property is nestled in nature and its beautiful natural gardens have been designed to mirror the coast with ponds, Burren limestone paving, as well as cherry, apple, fig and pear trees. There’s parking for several vehicles in the grounds around the house.

Located on the Wild Atlantic Way, Kinvara is recognised as one of the most sought-after locations on the West coast, which is famous for traditional Irish music and culture and hosts the famous Fleadh na gCuach and the Cruinniu na mBad festivals annually. Kinvara has excellent transport links with the M18 and the M6 easily accessed at nearby Ardrahan as is the railway station and there is daily Bus Eireann service bringing Galway, Limerick, Ennis and Loughrea all within easy reach. It is a village that has everything: great natural beauty and amenities, great facilities and services and a warm friendly population.

Examples: "We felt so lucky to stay in this lovely home. Everything was magical, from the views, to the turtles in the pond, to the walk outside the door--you can walk to the water (and swim if you're brave), or walk the other way to talk to some very friendly cows. The house itself was perfect for us--views from all windows, comfortable, gorgeous yard, excellent showers. We loved it. I only wish we could've stayed much, much longer.".

"We had a fantastic time here as a family of 4. The house is really enormous - lots of space and light and lovely views. It's also very private. Kinvara is a short drive away and has good restaurant and pub options and a supermarket, but while you're at the house you really are away from everything. The pier is a short walk away and you can swim, kayak and paddleboard easily. We had a lovely swim under the stars one evening".

"Our stay was picturesque, and everything we could have hoped for. The home's spacious rooms and many windows made it sinfully easy to sit and spend hours sipping coffee and watching the water and scenery. None of us were prepared to leave when our reservation was over, and I certainly left a piece of my heart among the greenery".

"Brilliant place, cooked and played fiddle and walked the moonlit boreens down to the nearby gentle bay. Also the kitchen and dining room area were superb for sharing the space with 5 of us and the acoustics are great"

"Just gorgeous. Many have said it before but you really just need to be here to understand it. Magical"
