This seaside Sligo redbrick is on the market for €760,000

This seaside Sligo redbrick is on the market for €760,000

Bright, spacious and close to the sea, this new to the market home in Luffertan, Strandhill, has lots going for it.

A two-storey residence in Co Sligo, this imposing red brick is located on the Culleenamore Road, overlooking Ballisodare Bay. 

A gated gravel driveway, flanked by neatly trimmed lawn on either side, leads up to the front of the house. An enclosed patio/sun room with seating area makes the most of the spectacular views. Moving further inside, a carpeted staircase in the hallway leads up to the first floor, while a home office is located on the right-hand side.

On the opposite side of the hallway is the main living room. A feature open fireplace and wood-burning stove draw the eye as you walk in. Double doors connect this space with the kitchen where there is an extensive range of fitted units along with integrated appliances. A utility room with additional storage, a washing machine and a large fridge can be found just off the kitchen.

A small bathroom, second sitting room with fireplace and sliding doors out to the garden complete the accommodation on this floor.

There are four fine-sized bedrooms – one with a newly fitted ensuite and all with built-in wardrobes – off the landing upstairs, along with the main family bathroom. The two bedrooms to the front have uninterrupted views of both the bay and the Ox mountain range in the distance.

Outside, the wrap-around driveway provides ample off-road parking space. The gardens are beautifully planted and have been developed with a mixture of shrubs, plants, mature trees and lawned areas. The rear garden is sheltered by trees giving great privacy and you can see glimpses through the trees of Knocknarea mountain to the rear. The sale also includes a garage suited to many different uses and with huge potential for conversion. 

There is direct sea access across the road, ideal for swimming enthusiasts and those fond of other water activities.

Just a short distance from the scenic seaside village of Strandhill, the property is well set up with myriad amenities in the vicinity ranging from shops to primary schools, sandy beaches, restaurants, pubs and even a small airport. 

Currently on the market for €760,000, the property is on sale through Sherry FitzGerald Draper. Take a tour of this coastal Sligo home in our gallery below.
