REA Seamus Carthy proudly presents a landmark Shannon-side residence with a historic courtyard and two acres overlooking the marina. Shannon View is an exceptional 19th-century riverside property occupying a commanding elevated position on the banks of the River Shannon, with direct views of the marina and Blueway in the villages of Ballyleague and Lanesborough.
Originally built for the engineer of the Shannon Bridge and incorporating earlier stone outbuildings believed to be part of the De Lacy Norman castle that once guarded the river ford, the property combines rare historical significance with stunning views and considerable development potential. Set on approximately two acres of mature, private grounds, Shannon View features a traditional two-story period home alongside an extensive collection of cut-stone outbuildings with natural slate roofs, arranged around a sheltered courtyard.
The property enjoys dual road frontage with three vehicular access points within the Ballyleague settlement boundary, all zoned residential. This represents a once-in-a-generation opportunity for discerning buyers seeking a character-rich 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 setting.
Contact REA Seamus Carthy to arrange a private viewing. Viewings are strictly by appointment.
