Property History:
Originally built in 1850 as a single-story thatched cottage, the Disken family transformed it in 1890 into a distinctive two-story residence, complete with a unique rendered facade that still stands out today.
In 1947, local businessman Tim Devaney purchased the home, which remained in the Devaney family for many years, becoming a cherished part of the community’s heritage. More recently, the house passed to a village native, and—together with the skill and dedication of local tradespeople—has undergone a meticulous two-year restoration, breathing new life into the property while preserving its timeless charm.
Whether you're looking for history, comfort, and countryside calm—or a great base to explore the west of Ireland—this unique home has it all.
