Description
As the name suggests this character filled residence was a former school house, dating back to the 1850's. At that time the Irish Church Missions established schools in Connemara, one of them being Ballyconree. At one end was was the open plan classroom with the teachers living accommodation at the other. Situated on the Sky Road Loop the house is set on grounds which gently slope onto Kingstown bay. These lands, which comprise three acres, have extensive shore frontage and are bound by stone walls and shrubbery. Being elevated the property enjoys stunning views over the bay and to the islands beyond. Nearby is Clifden, a charming coastal town and a hugely popular tourist destination with a variety of bars, restaurants and eateries. Aerphort beach is a leisurly stroll from the house. For boating enthusiasts there are quays nearby at Coolacloy and Fahy. On obtaining the property the current owners carried out renovation work while retaining the character of the original building. From the impressive entrance hall, doors lead to the sitting room, kitchen-dining area, a downstairs bedroom and bathroom. Also on the ground floor is a bedroom / studio with wonderful views. The split level sitting room has a vaulted ceiling with large windows to the sea views. From the dining area french doors lead onto the large patio area, again with sea and island views. Stairs lead onto a large landing with a mezzanine balcony overlooking the sitting room below. On this floor there are a further three bedrooms, two bathrooms and an office.The master bedroom has a large bathroom and dressing room. The seated patio is lovely feature of the property and a wonderful space from which to enjoy the stunning views. The out buildings comprise a double garage with an adjacent original stone building which was the kitchen to the former schoolhouse. This is a special property with character and charm, taking full advantage of the sea and island views. Convenient to Clifden via the Sky road and to Aerphort beach, it is the perfect holiday getaway location.
