River view at Carrowmanagh Park

A riverside location in Oughterard and just 17 miles from Galway, makes number 20 Carrowmanagh Park a good bet.

This house, part of a development on the Owenriff River, is priced at €240,000 and is very well finished with a large, corner site, says Amanda Percy of Spencer Auctioneers.

Just two years old, it has three bedrooms, (one ensuite), a sitting room, kitchen/dining room and utility with guest WC.
