Contemporary luxery house near Gaway city
We live in the town of Athenry which is about half an hour from the bustiling costal city of Galway on the Atlantic Ocean. Our house is walking distance to shops, cafes, restaurants, pubs with live Irish music, hotels and the train station. But it is a very quiet and nice neighbourhood, you will hear no noise from our house. Our house is detached and was only built in 2019 so it is "A" rated for energy efficency. It is very tastefullly designed and has a lovely front and back garden where you can sit on the patio and enjoy dinner and a glass of wine whilst looking at the many flowers and trees in the garden. We are a 10 minute walk from the train station where there are numberous daily trains to Galway city (20 minutes by train). You can also take numerous trains to Dublin, Athlone, Limerick from Athenry.
