Description

This is a unique opportunity to acquire a lakeshore property which has full planning permission to alter and extend the current residence. The Lake House offers a purchaser the chance to create a luxurious contemporary home, in an area where it is virtually impossible to obtain any planning permissions. The plans have been carefully drawn to take in the maximum advantage of this mature lakeshore site. The house will have breathtaking views of the renowned Lough Derravaragh and hillside scenery. The property consists of c. 1 acre with its own water frontage and jetty. Currently there is a fine three bedroom bungalow on the site, which extends to c. 106.95 square meters (1150 square foot).

 PLANNING PERMISSION

 

Planning permission has been granted to extend and alter the current residence.

 

AMENITIES

 

LOUGH DERRAVARAGH
Derravaragh is a narrow lake almost 8km in length. The northern part is broad and shallow while the long neck towards Crookedwood is narrow and deep. The Lake House has its own jetty onto the Lake and hence there are a range of water activities on tap at all times. Fly fishing for trout can be worthwhile, especially during the mayfly hatch. It is an exceptionally good Pike lake and there are also large stocks of Roach and Bream.  The lake is also popular to boat on and to swim in.

 

Lough Derravaragh is famously the lake which the Children Of Lir spent their three hundred years as swans, having been turned in to swans by their wicked stepmother.

 

GOLFING
The golf enthusiast is well catered for in the surrounding area with five quality golf courses within half an hours drive.  The five golf courses are Glasson Golf and Country Club, Moate Golf Club, Mount Temple Golf Course, Mullingar & Delvin Golf club.

 

RACING
The nearest race course is at Kilbeggan, which the Curragh is within 60 miles. The newly laid Derravarragh gallops are aprox 2 miles away.
