Simple perfection in a great location

Ocean Wave — to the purist it may seem a bit of an misnomer, being that it is in a relatively built up urban development. On the other hand it is within a stone’s throw of the beach front and adjacent to both Salthill and Galway city centre.

No 111, newly listed with Property Partners Maxwell & Heaslip, is a stunning duplex townhouse and boasts more than a glimpse of the nearby Galway Bay from both living and sleeping areas. The duplex, at first and second floor level, is accessed by a single flight of limestone external steps over a ground floor apartment. Its cutting edge interior design and layout manages to be both cosy and ultra stylish, a difficult combination to achieve.

Opening off the spacious hallway is a surprisingly large and well laid out kitchen, fully fitted in shades of pale cream set off by a dark stained solid timber floor. Worktops are a high gloss timber finish and all appliances are integrated. A clever feature is the built in semicircular seating area matching the units and complementing the full sized circular table. Open shelving allows for a display of glasses, the built in hob has a smart stainless steel extractor, and adjustable halogen lighting tracks are both decorative and practical.

The dark stained wood theme is carried through the hall and onto the living room where it is offset by soft sage green walls and white skirting. A fitted gas fire is topped by a large framed mirror, further adding to the sense of space and light. French doors open onto a balcony with room for a barbecue and small table and chairs. The raised seating area with clever insert floor lights is yet another attractive feature, as is the large picture window extending into the roof area. An extra broad window sill provides a perfect spot for favourite photos and sun loving pot plants.

Upstairs two double bedrooms and a single bedroom all have built-in wardrobes. The master bedroom has every going fashionista’s dream — a full size dressing room with terrific shelved and hanging space and a fitted dressing table with more storage under. The bathroom is beautifully tiled in cool beige and cream tiles. A double sized shower stall has a ‘rainforest’ shower and a glass shower door. Heating throughout is all electric and the duplex has a separate outside storage unit at ground floor level.

James Heaslip, the agent handling the sale, is confident of plenty of interest in this little gem, even in these difficult times. “It will have a broad appeal,” he claims. “It’s perfect for a young couple or for anyone downsizing. While it is compact, there’s plenty of space and it’s so lovely and sunny with the living area and the balcony having a southerly aspect.” Mr Heaslip also mentions the added bonuses of ample parking, proximity to all amenities, and the pleasant, peaceful, and quiet surroundings with no through traffic or noise pollution.

Reasonably priced at €385,000, there is an annual management charge of €850 which ensures the well planted common areas are always well tended.
