Shannon View is a distinguished 19th-century riverside residence occupying an exceptional position on the banks of the River Shannon.
Built originally for the engineer of the Shannon Bridge and incorporating earlier stone outbuildings believed to form part of the De Lacy Norman castle that once guarded the river ford, the property combines rare heritage with extraordinary views and development potential.
Set within about two acres of mature private grounds, Shannon View includes a traditional two-storey period home together with an extensive range of cut-stone outbuildings under natural-slate roofs arranged around a sheltered courtyard.
The lands enjoy dual road frontage and three vehicular access points within the Ballyleague settlement boundary, all zoned residential.
“This is a once-in-a generation opportunity for discerning buyers seeking a character family home with direct Shannon views, a boutique accommodation or tourism project in a thriving Blueway location, or a strategic riverside redevelopment site in an established village environment,” said auctioneer Seamus Carthy.

Inside at ground level, the house has a kitchen, sitting room, shower room, formal dining room, central living room, and one bedroom. On the first floor, there is an open-plan sitting area at the top of the staircase, a bathroom, shower, WC, and three bedrooms.
