address, Sheeffry Cottage in the townland of Kinnock, Co Mayo , is just five kilometres from the popular seaside town ofIt was built some 20 years ago and lies at the end of a sweeping gravel driveway, behind secure gates framed by dry stone walls. The three-bedroom thatched cottage is perched on an elevated site and extends to 182sq m .
Also on the site is a thatched, fully insulated, block-built annexe, which is currently a bar and games room. As it has a loo, and spacious utility room adjacent, it could be converted to a self-contained apartment, subject to planning permission. Mayo house prices have risen about 10 per cent this year, with the Westport region being the most sought after. Good-quality four- and five-bedroom houses are selling for €700,000-€800,000, sending many first-time buyers in the direction of Castlebar.The allure of Westport is underpinned by its coastal amenities, including the vast and interesting Clew Bay with Clare and Inishturk islands, all accessible within a short ferry ride.
People retiring in the west and those who have the opportunity to work remotely – and Westport also has a good train service to Dublin – have contributed to the rising prices in the seaside town and its environs.
