A perfectly located former Inishowen boathouse has come on the market with an asking price of €395,000.
The Greencastle property was built originally in1864 for £159 by the Harbour Commissioners for the RNLI to operate as a Coast Guard Boat house serving Lough Foyle. It operated until 1928, saving many lives.
Purchased in the 1990’s it has been converted ‘tastefully’, according to McAuley Auctioneers, “and faithfully into a stone built residence/holiday home in this beautiful area on the Wild Atlantic Way.”
The south facing aspect gives it excellent views down over a secluded cove, Lough Foyle, Sweet Nellie’s beach, Greencastle Golf Club and the Northern Ireland Coastline. The 900 sq ft house comprises three bedrooms and a large open plan living kitchen area with a stone-faced fireplace the full length of the 18 ft ceiling apex.
Standing in a cluster of six shoreside homes, it will be exceptionally popular as a residence, holiday home or a holiday letting in this beautiful area.
