Description

Sonnagh, Charlestown, Co. Mayo, F12HC82.

A recently renovated and charming 2-bedroom cottage, with master bedroom ensuite, double bedroom and family shower room, located just outside Charlestown in Co. Mayo. Set on c. 6 acres of land, through which the Sonnagh River runs, the cottage and grounds are presented in impeccable condition.

This Property's Musical Relevance - "A True Oasis"

Oasis fans should note that this cottage was previously owned by the maternal grandmother of Noel and Liam Gallagher of Oasis fame and the Gallager brothers spent many happy childhood summers in this house, enjoying the freedom of the countryside setting and soaking up the musical traditions of the Charlestown locality. It is said that the brothers honed their unique musical style from an early age and no doubt the traditional music sessions experienced in the area would have influenced the two brothers in their later career. Having just played two sold out gigs in Dublin, the residents of Charlestown may be expecting a visit from the famous Gallaghers as they are very proud of their Mayo heritage, and many fans are making the pilgrimage to Co. Mayo in the hope of having a chance encounter with their idols.
