For Sale
James L. Murtagh Auctioneers are delighted to present this two-bedroom bungalow at Walterstown, Dalystown, Mullingar, Co. Westmeath, N91 N6Y2 to the market. Perfectly positioned just off the N52 and moments from the picturesque village of Dalystown, this delightful home offers the best of both worlds—peaceful countryside living with superb accessibility. Located just minutes from Mullingar and its excellent range of amenities, the property combines rural charm with everyday convenience.
Set on a generous site, the residence has been vacant for over two years and may qualify for the Vacant Home Refurbishment Grant, presenting a fantastic opportunity for new owners to put their own stamp on it.
Step inside to a bright and welcoming entrance hall that sets the tone for the spacious layout. To your left, a cosy living room features a solid fuel stove and a characterful fireplace surround—perfect for relaxing evenings. To your right, a light-filled open-plan living and dining area with a warm Stanley range creates an inviting atmosphere, seamlessly connecting to a fully fitted kitchen with solid wood cabinetry and direct access to a private, enclosed outdoor area—ideal for enjoying morning coffee or evening sunsets.
The ground floor also hosts two generously sized bedrooms and a family bathroom, offering a practical and comfortable living arrangement ideal for families, couples, or retirees.
Outside, the property really shines. Set on a substantial garden plot, it boasts two large garages and an additional storage facility, offering superb potential for redevelopment, hobbies, or even a home-based business. The expansive grounds provide ample space for outdoor living, gardening, or future extensions.
