Knocknageeha, Killavil, Ballymote

3 Roomed cottage on 2 acres

Located at the end of a quiet rural laneway, this is a quaint cottage in a beaitiful, tranquil setting, where time seems to have stood still.

The cottage is 80/90 years old, and has been vacant for over 20 years, and will qualify for the vacant , or possibly derelict home grant for upgrading to modern standards.

The cottage did formerly have electricity service, but this is now disconnected. Mains water supply is available.

The site has a good selection of Ash & Sycamore trees. The suggested site with this cottage is 2 acres, but there is an option for a further 2 acres if required for small animal husbandry at a cost of an extra €30,000 approx.

Close to the cottage residence is an old stone building, 8m x 3.8m, which was originally the old homested of the farm, but was later used for farm animal purposes. The stone shed could have renovation potential for study/workshop, and grands can also be accessed for such projects.

The last resident of this property was a renowned traditional Irish musician, and the Killavil area of Co. Sligo is considered to be home to the Sligo Style of Irish music. If walls could speak, these walls would tell of great Irish music sessions that took place in the cottage, where the best of flute & fiddle musicians from around the world were privliaged to play with the best. Many of the sessions only finished in time time for work in the mornings.
