Located in a serene c. 0.54-acre site within an exclusive cul-de-sac that is just five minutes from Moycullen village and a mere 20 minutes from Galway city, this architecturally designed family home epitomises luxury and functionality in every detail.
Approached through mature woodland, the stone-chipping drive splits in two directions. To the left is an integrated driveway, to the right is the main drive into the home, which meanders upwards to the main entrance, where you are introduced to the meticulous craftsmanship and attention to detail which define a truly special residence. Built in circa 2003, the home was designed by the award-winning O’Dowd O’Herily Horan Architects, resulting in a truly one-of-a-kind family home.
Exterior
Surrounded by open woodland, the property blends seamlessly with its natural surroundings, offering a tranquil retreat from the everyday hustle. Premium fixtures and fittings decorate every corner, showcasing a commitment to quality where no expense has been spared. The exterior is adorned with local limestone, lending a timeless elegance to the external walls, complemented by a limestone boundary wall that defines the front of the expansive site. Cedar cladding adds warmth and character to one section of the property, blending beautifully with cedarwood decking that extends to the full width of the property, while the thoughtfully designed rear deck invites residents to relax and unwind amid the natural woodland setting.
Interior
Inside, the combination of rich walnut and Turkish marble flooring harmonises with high ceilings, creating a sense of space and luxury that flows effortlessly from one meticulously crafted room to the next. The residence flows naturally from space to space, thoughtfully designed for comfortable yet sophisticated family living. Flooded with natural light, the home offers generously sized, well-balanced rooms that create an effortless sense of both space and warmth.
You enter into a welcoming hallway where natural exposed limestone adds character and a touch of architectural elegance to the space. Adjacent is the generously proportioned kitchen, complete with extensive work surfaces, a central island, and abundant storage. From the kitchen, doors open to the tranquil rear decking, while a discreet staircase provides convenient access to the utility room below. The home's flowing floor plan features a separate dining room that leads to an elegant stepped-down living room with vaulted ceilings and a magnificent 16kw wood-burning stove framed with natural limestone pillars, creating a warm, inviting focal point.
The other section of the ground floor accommodates four well-appointed bedrooms, including one with an en-suite bathroom, complemented by a main bathroom, separate WC, and hot press. Each bedroom features full-height windows that flood the spaces with natural light and provide views of the tranquil back garden.
The master bedroom occupies the entire first floor and benefits from having a fitted walk-in wardrobe, an en-suite fully tiled with Italian marble, a nursery area and a spacious study overlooking the living room.
One of the standout features of this property is its orientation, meticulously planned to maximise sunlight throughout the day. Morning sunlight embraces the rear deck, while midday illuminates the garden with its inviting benches and pergola leading to a woodland pathway. As the day transitions to evening, the front deck captures the evening sun, ensuring each outdoor space is designed for enjoyment from dawn until dusk.
