DNG Martin O'Connor Estate Agents are honoured to present for sale by DNG Online Auction on 30th September 2026 at 1pm, an exceptional detached coastal residence enjoying one of the most spectacular waterfront positions on Galway Bay at Aillepreachain, Furbo. Extending to approximately 357.9 sq.m. (3,852 sq.ft.) and standing on approximately 3.58 hectares (8.85 acres) of mature private grounds, this unique property commands breathtaking panoramic sea views, benefits from direct private access to Furbo Beach, and offers an increasingly rare opportunity to acquire a substantial coastal holding in one of Galway's most sought-after seaside locations, just a short stroll from the village.
Approached by a sweeping driveway and surrounded by mature trees and beautifully established gardens, Aillepreachain offers an exceptional sense of peace and privacy. The grounds gently extend towards the shoreline where a private gate opens directly onto Furbo Beach, allowing the beach to become part of everyday life. Morning walks along the shore, a refreshing swim in Galway Bay or simply sitting by the water's edge become effortless, creating a lifestyle that few properties can offer.
The residence has been carefully positioned to embrace its spectacular surroundings. Large picture windows frame breathtaking views across Galway Bay, while the expansive first-floor balcony provides an ever-changing outlook over the water, from tranquil summer mornings to dramatic Atlantic sunsets. Whether relaxing indoors or outside, the sea is a constant presence, creating a home that is deeply connected to its surroundings.
Extending over two floors, the residence offers generous family accommodation comprising seven bedrooms and a number of spacious reception rooms. While the property would benefit from refurbishment and modernisation, it presents an exceptional opportunity to restore and enhance a substantial home in a setting that is truly irreplaceable. Properties can be renovated and reimagined, but opportunities to acquire an extensive beachfront holding of this nature are exceptionally rare.
Aillepreachain is just a short stroll from the renowned Pádraicíns Gastropub, while a footpath leads to the centre of Furbo village, approximately 1 km away, where a range of local amenities, schools and services are available. Galway City is also within easy reach, offering the perfect balance between peaceful coastal living and everyday convenience.
Please note this property will be offered by online auction (unless sold prior). Vendors may decide to accept pre-auction bids so please register your interest with us to avoid disappointment. The successful bidder is required to pay the balance of 10% deposit and contracts are signed immediately on acceptance of a bid.
Combining approximately 3.58 hectares (8.85 acres) of private coastal grounds, direct access onto Furbo Beach, panoramic views across Galway Bay and a substantial detached residence with outstanding potential, Aillepreachain represents one of the most unique waterfront opportunities to come to the Galway market in recent years.
