Since bringing No 7 Kylemore Park, Salthill, to the market last week, Colleran Auctioneers have been inundated with enquiries from people asking the same question: “Where exactly is Kylemore Park?” Ironically, that sense of mystery and seclusion is one of the area’s greatest attractions.
Hidden quietly off St Mary’s Avenue in Lower Salthill, many people pass by Kylemore Park every day without ever realising this exclusive residential development exists. Tucked away in a peaceful cul-de-sac of just eight detached homes, Kylemore Park has long been regarded as one of Salthill’s best-kept secrets. The area even briefly found itself on the world stage in 1979 when Pope John Paul II landed his helicopter in the adjoining field while visiting the nearby Bishop’s Palace.
Now, Colleran Auctioneers is offering No 7 Kylemore Park, a substantial detached family home in one of Galway’s most established and tightly held neighbourhoods. Properties here rarely come to market. In fact, many local residents cannot remember the last time a home was offered for sale in Kylemore Park. This is a neighbourhood synonymous with generational family living, where homes are cherished and passed from one generation to the next thanks to the exceptional combination of location, privacy and lifestyle.
Perfectly positioned between Salthill Promenade and Galway city centre, the location offers an enviable balance of coastal living and city convenience. Residents can enjoy morning walks along the Prom, nearby beaches, cafés, restaurants and Galway Bay, while also being within easy walking distance of schools, shops and the vibrant cultural life of Galway city.
Extending to approximately 160sq m (1,722sq ft ), No 7 is a bright, spacious detached home with superb proportions throughout. The accommodation includes a large sun-filled sitting and dining room with feature marble fireplace and stove insert, fitted kitchen, utility room and a study/home office which could also serve as a ground-floor bedroom due to its position beside the downstairs bathroom. Upstairs there are four generous bedrooms and a family bathroom.
Outside, the property benefits from off-street parking to the front together with a private walled rear garden that enjoys excellent privacy.
While the house has been lovingly maintained over the years, it now offers discerning buyers an exciting opportunity to modernise and reimagine the property for contemporary family living. Given the size, layout and unrivalled location, the potential is exceptional.
“Homes in Kylemore Park very rarely come for sale, which says everything about the quality of life this unique location offers,” said Don Colleran. “It combines the privacy of a secluded residential setting with all the lifestyle advantages of living in the heart of Salthill.”
No 7 Kylemore Park, St Mary’s Avenue, Lower Salthill, Galway is for sale by private treaty with a guide price of €720,000. With strong interest already evident, early viewing is highly recommended.
