Murroughtoohy South, Fanore, Murroogh, Co. Clare, H91D2WK

New Quay Real Estate is very excited to bring to the market this rare opportunity in one of the most scenic and sought after locations on the Wild Atlantic Way. To say that this substantial property is bursting with potential is a serious understatement. Extending to approximately 2 acres this seaside homestead offers the discerning buyer tremendous scope for development with several beautiful Burren stone-built structures within its boundaries, a credit to the craftsmen of the day with the spectacular stonework fitting so well into the coastal surroundings. In addition to the cottages and outbuildings the offering benefits from multiple facets including a mobile home, a large poly tunnel frame, a green house, several vegetable gardens, an animal paddock, a broadleaf indigenous tree cluster, two roadside entrances and other nooks and crannies tucked away. The property requires complete refurbishment, and we anticipate that the derelict property grants will be available. We understand the property has a mains water connection and an existing power connection which will be a huge cost saving and asset to those embarking on renovation works. There is also the possibility of attaining circa 10.5 acres of adjoining farmland south of the property towards the bay.

For those who do know it this prime location is in an area of outstanding natural beauty cradled between the terraced limestone labyrinth of the one-of-a-kind Burren mountains to the east and Galway Bay, the Aran Islands and the open Atlantic Ocean to the west. A short stroll bypassing the main road brings you to Fanore’s Blue Flag Beach, one of the country’s premier top tier beaches, with its large expanse of golden sand, consistently achieving excellent water quality ratings and while popular is less crowded than other west coast beaches such as Lahinch and Kilkee. A further stroll down the road brings you to local services including the convenience store, fishing tackle shop and Donoghues pub for some hearty grub and a creamy pint of Guinness with a short 10-minute drive to the beautiful harbour village of Ballyvaughan offering even more amenities. The area is a fisherman’s and seafood lovers mecca home to multiple shellfish varieties from cockles, mussels, periwinkles, razor clams, oysters, brown crab, velvet crab, lobsters, along with fish varieties such as mackerel, bass, pollack, plaice, flounder, garfish to name a very few. Head up the cascading Caher river to the rock pools for some wild brown trout from the pristine spring water of Sliabh Elva which flows down the valley through the beach to the ocean just south of the property. Rock fishing from the spectacular outcrops of Burren limestone with annual angling competitions draws participants from near and far.

Fanore serves as one of the central anchor points on the iconic Wild Atlantic Way, the world’s longest defined coastal touring route stretching 2,500 kilometres from north to south along the west coast. There is a purity about this part of the world from the landscape to the air quality, to the locally produced food, to the rivers and ocean and the people. Life operates at a different pace, and it is no surprise that people fall for this unique and spectacular landscape and keep returning year after year. It is a place that gives, what we believe, the ultimate energy fix and recharge for the soul.

This is one of those rare properties that is an absolute pleasure to survey and can only be fully appreciated by a site visit to get a real picture of how truly special and unique it really is. We believe this opportunity with its multiple facets, resources and scope for development represents excellent value at the asking price and we urge those with a serious interest not to hesitate in contacting us.
