Near Lahinch beach for just €190,000

A LITTLE bit of everything – ground, sheds/stable and stone outbuildings, plus a hay barn, for example – comes with this Lahinch, Co Clare, property mix, for €190,000.

Listed with agents, Sherry Fitzgerald Hussey Madden, the ‘main’ residence manages to squeeze in three bedrooms, sitting room, bathroom and high-ceilinged kitchen, even though there’s only about 620 sq ft of space.

Then, there’s the option of conversion of some of the old, whitewashed stone outbuildings, one of which served time as the Moymore national school, back in the 1800s.

The property – a contrast to the more readily available, holiday home mix built during the boom – is three miles from Lahinch and its born-again surf beach and links golf course, with a stream running alongside it.

The cottage, described as ‘charming,’ is on a site of 0.8 of an acre.
