Rock Haven, Shanbally, Craughwell, Co. Galway, H91AFH2

Distinguished Country Residence of Scale, Style, and Exceptional Versatility

Tarpey Maloney Properties are proud to present to the market this exceptional detached residence set on just under one acre of beautifully private grounds in the sought-after Shanbally area of Craughwell. This substantial and immaculately presented home extends to approximately 311 sq.m. (3,347 sq.ft.) and offers a rare blend of space, versatility, and refined comfort.

Designed with modern family living in mind, the property also presents outstanding income-generating potential, incorporating a fully self-contained one-bedroom apartment with both private external access and optional internal connectivity to the main residence.

Upon arrival, a welcoming entrance hallway sets the tone for the quality and scale that continues throughout. To the front lies an elegant sitting room centred around a feature gas fireplace — a warm and inviting space ideal for relaxation.

This leads seamlessly into the heart of the home: a light-filled open-plan kitchen and dining area, thoughtfully designed for both everyday living and stylish entertaining. A solid fuel stove creates a cosy focal point, while patio doors open onto an expansive decking area overlooking the surrounding grounds — perfect for al fresco dining and summer gatherings.

A well-appointed utility room is located just off the kitchen and provides access to the converted attic level above. A private inner corridor leads to four generously proportioned double bedrooms, all finished to an excellent standard. The principal bedroom suite is particularly impressive, featuring an en-suite bathroom and walk-in wardrobe.

A large, fully tiled family bathroom, complete with both bath and separate shower, serves the remaining bedrooms.

The first floor offers exceptional flexibility and lifestyle appeal. With independent rear access, this level can function as a luxurious guest suite, executive home office hub, private retreat for older family members, or a premium rent-a-room opportunity.
The accommodation comprises three substantial rooms, a spacious bathroom, and a kitchen area — perfectly suited for a studio, wellness space, gym, or creative workspace.

Further elevating the property’s appeal is the beautifully appointed self-contained one-bedroom apartment. Finished to a high standard, it features a large open-plan kitchen, living, and dining space, a spacious double bedroom, and a modern bathroom — ideal for extended family, guests, or consistent rental income.

This home represents an exceptional opportunity for discerning purchasers seeking a premium family residence with multi-generational living options or strong investment return potential.

Ideally positioned, the property enjoys a peaceful countryside setting without compromising on connectivity. Killeeneen and Coldwood National Schools are close by, with an excellent selection of secondary schools in Oranmore and Athenry within easy reach.

Craughwell village lies approximately 22–24 km east of Galway City along the R446, offering convenient access to the M6 (Galway–Dublin) and M18 (Galway–Limerick) motorways, making this an ideal location for commuters. Constructed in 1999, the residence benefits from oil-fired central heating and boasts an impressive BER rating of B3, reflecting its strong energy efficiency credentials. This is a truly distinguished home of scale, flexibility, and quality in a prime residential setting.
