Seclusion and serenity: three country homes from €245,000

If you were to take the rebuild costs of a house this size, not to mention its 1.5 acre site of manicured seaside gardens, using an average rebuild cost of €2,700 per sq m, it comes in at close to a million euros. And that doesn’t include its location opposite the water and pier on the island of Lettermore overlooking Oyster Bay. Part of an archipelago of small islands, linked by a series of stone bridges, it’s about as rural a spot you’ll find in Connemara.

Its Ber is D2, so it might be worth taking advantage of SEAI grants to upgrade that rating if you’re considering living in this stunning Connemara valley. It’s easy to see why you might get confused though, when you look at the aerial shot of the position of this five-bedroom C1-rated house on an elevated coastal site. Extending to 260 sq m , the architecturally designed house in excellent order lies about two miles west of Castletownshend, so despite feeling you’re at the end of the Earth, there’s amenities up the road. It has lovely seaside walks and is 200m from a shingle strand.
