Traditional two-storey Roscommon farmhouse on the market for €65,000

There’s something quietly captivating about a home that has stood the test of time. Set amid the gentle rhythm of the countryside, a traditional two-storey farmhouse on the market for €65,000 at Highlake, Ballymacurley presents a rare opportunity to reimagine and restore a piece of rural heritage.

Brought to the market by Sherry FitzGerald P. Burke, this property invites vision, creativity, and care. While currently in a derelict condition, its character remains unmistakable - solid walls, generous proportions, and a layout that reflects the charm of a bygone era.

Standing on approximately 0.5 acres, the residence is complemented by associated farm buildings and a yard to the rear, offering ample scope for expansion, hobby farming, or simply embracing outdoor living. The setting is private yet accessible, framed by mature greenery and open skies.

“Inside, the ground floor accommodation includes a welcoming porch, a kitchen cum dining room that once formed the heart of the home, a sitting room, utility space, and a rear porch. Upstairs, three bedrooms await transformation, one of which includes bathroom facilities—hinting at the home’s potential for comfortable modern living once restored,” said the auctioneers.

“Location is always key, and here it is perfectly balanced. Positioned between Roscommon and Castlerea, the property enjoys the best of both worlds: peaceful countryside surroundings with convenient access to nearby towns and amenities. It is an ideal setting for those seeking tranquillity without isolation.

“For the discerning purchaser, this is more than a renovation project—it is an opportunity to create something truly special. Whether envisioned as a family home, a countryside retreat, or a thoughtful restoration project, the possibilities are as expansive as the surrounding landscape,” added the auctioneers.
