Turnkey 6-Bed Detached Family Home with Views over Portlough | Newtowncunningham, Co. Donega

A beautifully renovated and exceptionally spacious detached family home occupying a large private site, enjoying attractive countryside views towards Port Lough and a convenient location just minutes from Newtowncunningham and within easy reach of Derry.

Extensively renovated, upgraded and redecorated within the past 18 months, the property has been transformed into an impressive, contemporary home that is genuinely ready to walk into. The interiors have been thoughtfully designed to combine modern finishes with warmth and character, creating a home with broad appeal for first-time buyers, growing families and purchasers seeking additional space.
The heart of the home is the outstanding kitchen, which has been finished to an excellent standard with extensive fitted cabinetry, a central island, integrated appliances and a generous adjoining utility room. The kitchen’s elegant neutral palette, quality finishes and carefully considered lighting create a sophisticated yet highly practical family space. The property offers a choice of beautifully presented reception areas, including a substantial family room or games room with decorative wall paneling, feature fireplace and bay window. The principal sitting room provides a comfortable and welcoming setting, while the bright sunroom takes full advantage of the surrounding countryside and distant views.

The sleeping accommodation is equally impressive. The bedrooms are generously proportioned and tastefully decorated. The bathrooms and shower rooms complement the high standard evident throughout the property.

The house currently benefits from a high C energy rating. Subject to confirmation by a qualified BER assessor, replacing the existing oil burner with a modern condensing boiler may have the potential to improve the property to a B energy rating. This could allow a purchaser to qualify for a green mortgage rate, depending on the individual lender’s eligibility requirements.

One of the property’s most valuable features is the substantial detached workshop and extensive hard-surfaced yard to the rear. This flexible space offers considerable potential for storage, a home gym, private office accommodation, a workshop or a range of home-based or commercial activities. Possible uses could include a hair salon, crèche, personal-training studio, mechanical workshop or other business venture, all subject to the necessary planning permission and statutory approvals.

Set on a large and private site, the grounds include mature hedging, established planting, generous parking and attractive views over the surrounding Donegal countryside towards Port Lough. The setting offers a wonderful sense of space and privacy while remaining convenient to Newtowncunningham, Derry and the wider northwest region.

Combining turnkey presentation, extensive accommodation, excellent outdoor space and exceptional versatility, this is a home that should appeal equally to first-time buyers searching for a long-term property and established homeowners wishing to trade up without undertaking further renovation work
