Colleran Auctioneers presents this exceptionally spacious four bedroom detached bungalow in Aille, Barna, situated on a beautifully landscaped 0.6 acre site with wonderful views across the surrounding countryside towards Galway Bay and the Clare hills. With a guide price of €695,000, this substantial family home offers generous accommodation, extensive gardens and the tranquillity of country living, all within easy reach of Barna village and Galway city.
Set along a peaceful road, surrounded by other attractive family homes, the property enjoys a lovely setting. To the rear, there are views across the rolling countryside of the Barna hinterland, with Galway Bay and the Clare hills visible in the distance. Extending to approximately 213sq metres (2,292sq feet ), the bungalow is particularly impressive for the generosity of its accommodation. Its thoughtfully designed layout separates the living areas from the bedrooms, making it ideal for a growing family.
With spacious reception rooms, a particularly large kitchen and four generously proportioned bedrooms, three of which are en suite, this is a home where space is not simply a luxury but an everyday convenience.
From the moment you enter through the porch into the welcoming lobby and hallway, there is a sense of the generous proportions that continue throughout the house. The spacious sitting room features an attractive mahogany fireplace, oak timber flooring and ceiling coving, creating a comfortable and inviting room for relaxing or entertaining. French doors connect the sitting room to the adjoining dining room, which also enjoys direct access to the rear garden through sliding patio doors.
Further French doors lead into the exceptionally spacious kitchen, which is sure to become the heart of this family home. With extensive fitted units, generous floor space and a comfortable informal seating area set within a bay window, it offers an ideal environment for everything from busy family mornings to relaxed evenings together. The separate utility room is equally practical, providing additional fitted storage, laundry facilities and direct access outdoors.
The bedroom accommodation is another particularly appealing feature. All four bedrooms are generously sized doubles and have fitted wardrobes, while three benefit from their own en suite bathrooms. This arrangement is ideal for a family with older children or visiting guests, providing a level of comfort and independence not always found in a bungalow. The spacious main family bathroom includes both a bath and separate shower.
Adding further to the practicality of the property is a particularly large floored attic, accessed by a folding staircase. Two Velux windows provide natural light, which also filters through a light well into the hallway below.
Outside, the property stands on an attractive 0.6 acre site, approached by a sweeping tarmac driveway with ample off-street parking. The gardens feature mature trees, shrubs and lawns, while a separate block-built garage provides additional storage.
The location in Aille offers the peace of countryside living while remaining conveniently situated for both Barna village and Galway city. The generous accommodation and convenience of single-storey living make this property equally appealing to growing families and those seeking a substantial home for the years ahead. "What really sets this bungalow apart is the quality of the finishes and the exceptional amount of accommodation it offers," said Don Colleran. "At almost 2,300 square feet, it is considerably more spacious than many family homes. Having large and spacious living and kitchen rooms, four large bedrooms and three en suites, makes an enormous difference to everyday family living. Add to that the lovely countryside setting and proximity to Barna and Galway city, and you have a very attractive family home."
