Quay House is an exceptional three storey period property which has been lovingly restored with original features intact.

Originally built in the 1740s as a merchant’s house, the property was sympathetically renovated in 2013 by its current owners to make a comfortable modern home while retaining its period character. Works carried out include new double glazed windows, installation of mains gas heating, insulating from ground to ceiling, dry lining, rewiring and replumbing. The house has been newly painted internally.

The floor area extends to approximately 150.5 sq m/1,620 sq ft. On the ground floor, accommodation comprises of entrance hall, a living room overlooking Westport Quay which opens into the kitchen/dining room with an antique timber ceiling and a white hi gloss kitchen; to the rear of the house is a sitting room with patio doors to a secluded courtyard; a utility room and WC. On the first floor there are two double bedrooms, both en-suite and one with walk through wardrobe. There are two further en-suite double bedrooms on the second floor. The main bedroom and its well appointed en-suite bathroom overlook Westport Quay.

Externally, there is a large enclosed south/west facing paved courtyard with an assortment of stone buildings. These buildings could suit a number of uses including additional accommodation (subject to planning permission). To the side of the house is a large adjoining garage.

The property is excellently located adjacent to Westport Quay, an attractive pedestrian friendly area with primary school, restaurants, bars, hotel, local shops including a small supermarket and The Point sea swimming area. Westport town centre and its many amenities are a 10 minute walk.
