FOR SALE:
A wonderful opportunity to breathe new life into a traditional Irish cottage in the peaceful countryside of Shraheen, just outside Foxford, Co. Mayo.
Believed to date from the 1930s and unoccupied since the early 1970s, the cottage stands on approximately 0.34 hectares / 0.84 acres and offers enormous potential for the right purchaser to restore, renovate and create something truly special.
The property currently has no services connected and no septic tank. The local Shraheen Group Water Scheme runs directly by the property, with other services available in the surrounding area.
The property may have potential to benefit from the Vacant Property Refurbishment Grant and Derelict Property top-up, subject to the purchaser meeting all relevant eligibility criteria and obtaining approval from the appropriate authority.
A rare renovation project in a beautiful rural Mayo setting — ideal for those looking to Go West and find their way home.
