Nestled in the tranquil Irish countryside, discover a charming 2-bedroom cottage for sale in Lislea, Arigna, Carrick-On-Shannon, Ireland. This quaint abode, partially renovated, presents a fantastic opportunity to create your personalized Irish retreat with an estimated size of 110 sqm.

Positioned not too far from the friendly local community of Arigna and a brief drive from the bustling town of Drumshanbo, you'll love the rural serenity without having to sacrifice access to necessary conveniences. The property is set within an expansive c. 0.69 acres of land. From here, take in the breathtaking views overlooking the Arigna Valley and the imposing Kilronan Mountain, offering an enviable sense of tranquility and connection to nature.

This cottage's charm lies partially in its potential. Partial renovations have been undertaken, and the house is primed and ready for you to impart your vision and add those personal finishing touches. Here you'll find a foundation of skimmed plaster walls and first fix electrics and plumbing, alongside PVC double-glazed windows and a reliable slate roof for a warm, waterproof interior.

- Shower Room (2.35m x 1.26m) provisioned for installation of a WC, shower, and sink

Externally, the plot presents an outbuilding at the rear that needs refurbishing. Current specifications don't cover a septic tank, so one will need to be installed.

Living in the Lough Allen area offers something different every day. Trek Kilronan Mountain, take a lakeside stroll, or engage with the community in Arigna or Drumshanbo, where you can indulge in local cuisine or explore the town's various shops. Experience four distinctly beautiful seasons in this part of Ireland, with crisp, frost dusted winters; flowers blooming in the spring; warm summer days perfect for a dip in Lough Allen; and autumn colors painting the landscape in vivid hues.

Lislea, Arigna is not just a place to live, it's a lifestyle. It offers a slower, more connected way of living where community matters, and the landscape becomes an integral part of your everyday life. This house is more than just infrastructure; it's a home waiting to be molded with love, dedication, and a dash of imagination.
