This area is defined by a patchwork of lush rolling hills, ancient stone walls, and a quiet, pastoral atmosphere that feels worlds away from the bustle of modern life.

The geography of Derrymore offers a quintessential West of Ireland experience, sitting at the gateway to the dramatic landscapes of the Burren. Residents and visitors are treated to a terrain that shifts from fertile agricultural valleys to the rugged, limestone plateaus that make this part of Clare globally unique. It is a haven for those who appreciate the outdoors, offering a sanctuary of freshwater glens, diverse wildlife, and the kind of 'uninterrupted views' that encompass both the distant peaks of the Galtee Mountains and the shimmering lights of nearby Limerick City. Cultural life in and around Derrymore is rich with traditional Irish influences. The area is positioned near some of the country's most iconic landmarks, including the medieval majesty of Bunratty Castle and the world-famous Cliffs of Moher. This proximity allows for a lifestyle that balances quiet rurality with world-class leisure, from golfing at championship courses to exploring the vibrant folk music scene in local villages like Quin and O'Callaghan's Mills. It is a place where tradition is not just remembered but actively lived. Connectivity is a hallmark of this specific pocket of County Clare, making it an ideal location for international residents.

Bedroom 4 3.8 m x 3.8 m Bedroom 4 is another generously proportioned room with peaceful farmland views, offering an ideal guest bedroom or family space. As with the other bedrooms, comfort, quiet, and privacy are assured. Main Bathroom 3.6 m x 3.6 m The main bathroom delivers a true spa-like experience, finished in calming, earthy tones. A large oversized Jacuzzi bath—comfortably accommodating two—provides a luxurious space to unwind, while the generous rainwater shower (1.2 m x 1.2 m) completes the feeling of indulgence and relaxation. Second Living / Sitting Room 4.7 m x 3.8 m A more intimate and secluded living space, this second sitting room offers privacy and warmth, complete with a working chimney suitable for an open fire or wood-burning stove. Three feature windows frame the surrounding landscape, creating a cosy yet light-filled retreat with stunning views beyond. Office & Meeting Rooms Main Office Area: 9.6 m x 4.6 m Meeting Room: 5.0 m x 3.6 m The first floor has been thoughtfully configured as a world-class home office suite, comfortably accommodating up to five workstations along with storage, whiteboards, and informal seating areas. A separate private meeting room provides an ideal space for confidential discussions. Natural light floods the office via Velux Cabrio balcony windows to the south, oversized Velux windows to the north, and a large east-facing window overlooking mature larch, ash, and pine trees along the natural glen. In summer, the Cabrio windows open fully to create balcony-style spaces, allowing light and fresh air to flow freely. This versatile level could easily be reconfigured as a spectacular additional bedroom suite, complete with en-suite, walk-in wardrobe, and private sitting area. The meeting room could similarly serve as a fifth or sixth bedroom. Both areas are supported by extensive walk-in storage. Mud Room / Utility 3.9 m x 2.8 m The mud room and utility at Derrymore Glen is a generously proportioned and highly functional space, thoughtfully designed to support everyday living. Fully fitted with quality cabinetry, extensive storage, and a dedicated sink, it combines practicality with understated style. Integrated laundry appliances are neatly concealed within the counter area, allowing routine tasks to be completed efficiently while maintaining a clean, uncluttered appearance. With direct access and ample room for outerwear and footwear, this is the ideal space to leave hiking boots and outdoor gear after exploring the surrounding countryside, ensuring the main living areas remain serene and refined.
