Set within the mature surrounds of Fairlands Park, No 7 Sylvan Grove presents a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial detached residence in one of Galway city’s most established and desirable residential locations. Brought to the market by DNG Leonard & Heaslip and selling agent Kyle O’Brien, this impressive seven bedroom home combines generous proportions, a highly convenient setting, and exceptional flexibility for modern family living.
Occupying a prominent corner site in the heart of Newcastle, the property extends to approximately 2,561sq ft of well-balanced accommodation over two levels. The home has been carefully maintained and is presented in excellent condition throughout, offering immediate comfort while also presenting exciting scope for future enhancement or reconfiguration to suit a purchaser’s individual requirements.
From the outset, No 7 Sylvan Grove conveys a strong sense of space and practicality. The paved front and rear exterior areas ensure low-maintenance outdoor living while maximising usable space, and the southwest facing rear garden enjoys excellent natural sunlight throughout the day. Ample off-street parking further enhances the property’s appeal, particularly for larger families or those requiring additional guest parking.
Internally, the accommodation has been thoughtfully arranged for both family life and flexible living. The ground floor comprises a welcoming entrance hallway, a spacious living room ideal for entertaining or relaxation, a well-appointed kitchen, utility room, four bedrooms, and two bathrooms. The layout offers considerable versatility, with the ground floor bedrooms equally suited for use as home offices, playrooms, guest accommodation, or additional reception space depending on a buyer’s needs.
Upstairs, the property continues to impress with three exceptionally large double bedrooms, all benefitting from en suite bathrooms. These generously proportioned rooms provide excellent privacy and comfort, making the upper floor particularly suited to growing families or multi-generational living. The scale of the accommodation throughout the home is a notable feature and one that is increasingly difficult to find in established city locations.
Fairlands Park has long been regarded as one of Galway’s enduring residential successes. Positioned within walking distance of the University of Galway and University Hospital Galway, the area has consistently attracted owner-occupiers seeking convenience, connectivity, and a strong sense of community. A wide selection of schools, local shops, cafés, sporting facilities, and recreational amenities are all within easy reach, while Galway city centre is just minutes away.
Connectivity is another major advantage of this address. Newcastle remains one of the city’s most accessible residential districts, offering straightforward access to key employment hubs, transport links, and arterial routes while retaining the peaceful atmosphere associated with mature suburban living. For families, professionals, or investors alike, the combination of location and scale offered by No 7 Sylvan Grove is particularly compelling.
Additional features include oil-fired central heating and PVC double and triple glazed windows, ensuring comfort and energy efficiency throughout the year. The property’s generous footprint and adaptable layout also provide excellent long-term potential for further modernisation or redesign, subject to the necessary planning permissions.
In a market where spacious detached homes in established residential settings are increasingly scarce, No 7 Sylvan Grove stands out as a property of genuine substance and versatility. Combining seven bedrooms, extensive living accommodation, a sought-after Newcastle address, and exceptional proximity to Galway’s key institutions and amenities, this is a home that will appeal strongly to discerning buyers seeking both immediate quality and future potential.
Asking price is €695,000.
