DREAM DONEGAL HOME WITHIN 350 METRES OF SANDY BEACH Stunning Beach House that has been a stylish sanctuary for the stars.
A rare opportunity to purchase one of the best-finished and designed houses in Donegal!
Donegal beaches are known for their wild, world-class beauty, and this dream home is a two-minute stroll to the grassy banks and dunes at Mullaghderg. The house has even lured James Bond!
Pierce Brosnan, his mother, and his wife, Keely Shaye Smith, have enjoyed their time here quietly this Spring and fell in love with the area. Known to have a keen eye for property and regularly spotted at their seafront mansion in Malibu, they were charmed by the Mullaghderg banks, taking frequent strolls away from the paparazzi.
Unsurprisingly, this area, made famous by Daniel O'Donnell, Clannad, and Enya, has been attracting celebrities, as its beauty is still undiscovered. Actor Gabriel Byrne and Helena Bonham Carter have also stayed in a nearby house while filming 'Four Letters of Love', and in true Donegal style, their visits were kept discreet and only mentioned long after they had left.
Donegal Airport is voted the most scenic in the world, and its location is a big plus. With two daily flights from Dublin and seasonal flights from Glasgow, it offers easy access for golfers, with over ten golf courses within an hour.
One of Paul McGinley's favourite courses, Cruit Island, is only 20 minutes away.
Property Details
Full of light and warmth, Sandybanks, a newly-built retreat, which has been described as a 'turn-key paradise', impresses at first glance with a large, light-filled open-plan living area with cool neutrals. An A-rated, eco-friendly four-bedroomed home, no expense has been spared in creating a sanctuary for all weathers with a Viking sauna/barbeque hut suited for entertaining in more significant numbers.
When it comes to the Wild Atlantic Way, the weather is an ever-changing backdrop, and a good kitchen is essential for entertaining, whether looking out at a windswept landscape or viewing the landscape and Mullaghderg Lake sparkling in the sun.
The luxury kitchen is designed to impress and complement even the most discerning chef. It has a huge quartz-topped island area for entertaining and an L-shaped bench area that invites friends and family to share meals and relax. No expense has been spared to create a sense of comfort in this A-rated eco-friendly family home. The kitchen family room, with a charming coffee station, is separated by a double-sided fireplace, and the welcoming flames are all electric for ease.
There are two magnificent master suites on the first and second floors. Each bathroom has extra-large showers, all important when by the sea, and the shutters on the windows are a stylish contemporary way of creating privacy.
On the lower floor are two guest suites with a bedroom, bathroom, and mudroom leading to the private outside patio area. There's also an office and children's TV den area in this beautiful home. The blue-flag beach of Carrickfinn, with white sands and majestic dunes, is only a short drive away, and the area is also known for some of Europe's best sea and game angling.
