A Donegal delight going for a steal

Nowadays the sum of €65,000 wouldn’t buy you a number of cars on the market but it could get you a traditional style 2 bed cottage in Co Donegal.

Located at Braide, a picturesque rural location just under 4km from Carrick and 15.5km from Ardara village, this property is very much a fixer upper.

However, given the price there is an unbelievable chance to acquire a home in Ireland’s northwest which could easily be transformed into something spectacular.

The home is set in a beautiful picturesque area

The home is positioned in a beautiful rural setting with distant sea views.

Perched at the top of a valley, the property sits approximately 110 meters above sea level and commands far-reaching views over the surrounding countryside towards Cashel village with the sea in the backdrop.

The existing living room

The property has remained unoccupied for over 10 years and therefore is suitable for the vacant home grant, or possibly, the dereliction grant of up to €70,000, subject to your own investigations with the local authority.

Set on a compact site that extends to around 0.14 acres in area, the cottage is accessed over a gated shared right-of-way.

In brief, the internal living accommodation extends to circa 52sqm (560 sq ft), and comprises of an internal storm porch, living room come diner, small kitchenette, two bedrooms serviced by a toilet located to the rear.

There is work to be done to the premises

The property has been preserved to retain its original character and charm but is now in need of modernisation and offers an excellent opportunity to create a bespoke living space tailored to the new owner's specific requirements.
