Description
Positioned just 3 kilometres from Castlebar town centre, in the quiet and well-regarded townland of Ballyneggin, this substantial five-bedroom detached residence offers a superb blend of space, privacy and accessibility. Situated on a mature 0.5-acre site just off the N5 national primary route, it enjoys the best of both worlds — a peaceful setting with immediate access to both Castlebar and the nearby village of Turlough. Extending to approximately 2,024 square feet, the home is set well back from the road behind a spacious tarmac driveway, with ample off-street parking and landscaped lawns wrapping around the house. From the moment you step inside, the scale and practicality of this home become clear. The entrance hallway is broad and bright, with timber floors and a warm, welcoming tone. To the right lies the main living room — a generous, well-proportioned space with a feature fireplace at its heart, complete with a cast-iron insert and elegant marble surround. Natural light floods in from the large front-facing bay window, while timber flooring and neutral décor create a comfortable, relaxed atmosphere for family life or entertaining guests. Flowing through from the living area is a well-defined dining room, positioned to take full advantage of garden views via its sliding glass doors, which open directly to a paved patio — perfect for warm weather dining or simply enjoying the privacy of the south facing back garden. The kitchen lies adjacent, fitted with maple shaker style fitted units, tiled flooring, and a centre island that doubles as a breakfast bar. With integrated appliances and plenty of storage space, it's a kitchen that balances functionality with a timeless feel. A separate utility room off the kitchen provides further storage and worktop space, along with external access to the rear. The ground floor continues with three double bedrooms — all bright, peaceful and finished in a simple, natural palette — along with a well-appointed family bathroom with tiled walls in the shower area and electric shower unit. The layout works particularly well for families seeking ground-floor accommodation or for those who prefer to keep everyday living on a single level. Upstairs, the sense of space continues with two large double bedrooms, both of which are en-suite and enjoy dormer windows that bring in soft light and character. These rooms are ideal as principal or guest suites, offering comfort and privacy in equal measure. A walk-in hot press and an additional family bathroom complete the first floor, enhancing the home's long-term liveability and practicality. Throughout, the house has been carefully maintained and is presented in move-in condition. Timber flooring, natural light and good proportions give the interiors a relaxed, welcoming quality. Whether you're seeking a long-term family home, a base for returning to the west, or simply a spacious property within reach of town, this home has the layout and flexibility to adapt to many needs. Outside, the site is mature and private, with established trees to the rear and wide lawns to the front and side. The tarmac drive extends around the property, allowing easy access and offering potential for future development such as a garage or garden room (subject to planning). The gardens are manageable yet generous, with plenty of room for families, gardening enthusiasts or anyone seeking outdoor space to enjoy. Oil-fired central heating serves the house, which holds a C3 BER rating, offering solid performance and the potential for easy upgrades if desired. Its location is undoubtedly a strong point — quiet and rural in feel, yet just minutes from the shops, schools, healthcare and services of Castlebar. Turlough village and the National Museum of Ireland Country Life are close by, as is access to the Greenway cycling and walking route that leads to Lough Lannagh and onwards to Westport. Commuters and families alike will appreciate the easy access to the N5, making connections across Mayo and beyond simple and efficient. In short, this is a home that delivers on space, location and comfort — a rare opportunity to secure a well-built, generously proportioned property in one of Castlebar's most accessible and appealing rural settings.
