A tastefully presented five-bedroom detached home offering generous living space with three reception rooms and a detached garage. Set in a peaceful yet highly accessible location, the property is just 5 minutes from Newtowncunningham, 15 minutes from Letterkenny, and only 10 minutes from Derry City - perfect for commuting while enjoying a quieter rural setting.
Combining space, comfort, and convenience, this home is ideally suited for family living, with bright, well-proportioned interiors and ample outdoor space.
Please note:
The concrete blocks used in the construction of the dwelling were tested for deleterious material (Muscovite Mica) in March 2022 and the SEM test returned a Mica level of 11% and was classified by the laboratory as High Risk from a Mica perspective. The laboratory report cautioned that there could be a risk from sulphates.
Following the revelation in 2023 that the primary cause of the damage to concrete blocks was elevated levels of sulphate and that Mica only played a supporting if any role it was decided to carry out further testing of the concrete blocks to obtain levels of sulphate and a second report which included a chemical test (for sulphate levels) found that the sulphate levels were considered safe (Total Sulphur 0.09%) and the laboratory classified the concrete as Negligible Risk from a reactive sulphides perspective.
Test results for deleterious material in the aggregate used in the manufacture of the concrete blocks were as follows:
Report 1 (March 2022): 11% Mica -- Mica Classification: High Risk -- Sulphates (Total Sulphur %): No Chemical test -- Classification: None
Report 2 (April 2025): 13% Mica -- Mica Classification: High Risk -- Sulphates (Total Sulphur %): 0.09% TS -- Classification: Negligible Risk
Prospective buyers are advised to review the full engineer’s reports for complete context.
Two engineer’s reports are available on request.

Building Energy Rating (BERs) give information on how to make your home more energy efficient and reduce your energy costs. All properties bought, sold or rented require a BER. BERs carry ratings that compare the current energy efficiency and estimated costs of energy use with potential figures that a property could achieve. Potential figures are calculated by estimating what the energy efficiency and energy costs could be if energy saving measures were put in place. The rating measures the energy efficiency of your home using a grade from ‘A’ to ‘G’. An ‘A’ rating is the most efficient, while ‘G’ is the least efficient. The average efficiency grade to date is ‘D’. All properties are measured using the same calculations, so you can compare the energy efficiency of different properties.
