A magnificent house on an elevated, yet secluded, site with views of Galway Bay and the Hills of Clare to the south – that’s what you get for your money with this spacious family home in Barna.

Not that this comes cheap, because estate agents Keane, Mahony, Smith have a price tag of €1,250,000 on this four-bed; four-bath, 333 m², detached home on a half-acre site at Ballard, Barna.

But for that, you get a magnificent home just 50 metres from the main Barna Road with Barna Woods and Silverstrand beach just a moment’s stroll away.

The property is bound by traditional stone walls and tall hedgerows with secure electric gated entrance and cobble-stone paved driveway leading to the façade of the residence.

The residence comprises a split-level home of concrete construction with slate roof with a very impressive south-facing veranda stretching the length of the southerly and westerly aspect of the house, availing of the amazing views of the Atlantic.

The main living room occupies the south-west wing of the home with large windows and patio doors to the veranda. This room also has an open fireplace and raised curve ceiling.

The exclusive, private site affords views of Galway Bay and is positioned on the edge of Barna village towards Salthill. Its spacious and adaptable accommodation would make for an idyllic family home.

Viewing can be arranged through KMS Galway.
