Probably one of the most scenic locations in the centre of Ireland with amazing panoramic view of Lough Ree to the south and west.
This 3 bedroom home is situated in a commanding position on a c. 0.15 hectare site overlooking Lough Ree with amazing views of Portlick Millennium Forest and Rinardoo Bay.
Properties with such a view and proximity to the lake rarely come on the market and this is a real gem.
Located on a quiet lane yet only c.2 km to Glasson Lakehouse, c. 4.5 km to Glasson Village and c. 13 km to Athlone town you have the best of both worlds.
The existing dwelling is a 3 bedroom cottage style house. There are spectacular views from the rear of the house and the upstairs bedroom.
Accommodation comprises 3 bedrooms, sitting room, living room, kitchen, bathroom and utility room.

The house is in need of renovation and has been vacant for 2 years. It will probably qualify for the Vacant Property Refurbishment Grant. This grant provides funding so you can refurbish vacant and derelict homes where grants of up to 70,000 are available subject to terms and conditions.
The current owner received planning permission in 2021 to replace the existing dwelling with a brand new c. 165 sq. m, 3 bedroom house. To avail of this planning permission the new owner would have to demonstrate local housing need similar to the applicant and receive consent from the council to occupy the new house.
