The home offers comfortable and generous accommodation cleverly laid out to maximise natural light and space. The main family room is positioned to the front with a large open plan kitchen dining room to the rear which flows through to a sun room and rear terrace balcony with beautiful, expansive views – perfect for enjoying summer evenings. The ground floor also comprises a bedroom, bathroom, home office, utility and a dining room which could easily be used as another bedroom. This portion of the home has potential to be used as a granny flat if desired. Upstairs, there is the main bathroom and three spacious bedrooms, main with ensuite and walk in wardrobe.

Claregalway is a Gaeltacht village about 10 km north of Galway in County Galway. The village lies within the Gaeltacht and traditionally most of the locals would have only spoken English as a second language. An influx of new residents over the last 30 years has meant that most residents now rarely, speak Irish. The village sits at the junction of the busy N17 and N18 national primary routes and over 27,000 vehicles pass through the village everyday.

Agriculture would once have been the main industry. In recent years the population has been expanding very rapidly since the village is within the commuter belt of Galway City. Many city workers are choosing to live outside the city environs in a more rural setting. However, the larger population has also led to the growth of the service and retail sector and has provided additional local employment.
