Post Auction - Renville House on c.135 Acres


One of the most publicised and anticipated Auction to take place, west of the Shannon in Oranmore, Co. Galway was conducted last Thursday by Jordan Auctioneers, Newbridge in the Radisson Blu Hotel.

Before an attendance of about 30 people Renville House on 135 acres, home of the Lydon family since 1960 was placed under the hammer. Bidding was initially cautious & slow opening at €1,500,000 with 4 active purchasers up to €2,700,000. After a brief consultation with the vendors the property was declared ‘on the market’ with only 2 parties fighting it out before the entire was sold for €3,200,000 to a Solicitor acting in trust on behalf of a client.

There is little doubt that this was a splendid property, entirely unique considering its location on the edge of Galway Bay, close to the city, Oranmore and the Motorway. Approached via a ½ mile long winding avenue on top quality land with a charming residence (although in need of some modernisation), farmyard and Herd’s cottage.

Paddy Jordan speaking after the Auction said ‘the sale had generated huge interest since the outset of the marketing campaign and it had been one of the finest properties he had sold, particularly in terms of the reaction of viewers when they saw the quality of the land, the setting and its unique charm, there were almost no negative comments, which is very unusual’ 

Jordans had been quoting €2,000,000 prior to the Auction and discussing this with Paddy Jordan he explained ‘there was a certain X factor with the property which was hard to put a number on and really it depended on people’s individual desire to purchase, it now appears this factor was possibly €1,200,000 over the guide’

Considering the Farmers Journal Land Price Survey 2015 placed the average price of agricultural land in the County at €7,443 this result of almost €24,000 per acre will go a long way to be matched.

Paddy Jordan at the commencement of the Auction commented that there are ‘three key factors when buying a property, location, location, location’ and this result certainly bears testament to that.

The Lydon family were delighted with the result and wish the purchaser every success in a property they have so many fond memories of.

The bidding opened at €600,000 and continued up to €720,000 at which stage it was withdrawn.

There were 2 bidders a local agent and a landholder in the area.


After negotiations with the highest bidder failed to get a result, the Agent consulted the underbidder and after continued negotiation the property was sold for a much higher figure.  Although disappointed there wasn’t more interest Jordan was satisfied with the end result which followed on from the successful sale of 105 Acres at Calverstown Little the previous week.

Shannon airport is circa 1hr with Oranmore Railway Station which was reopened in 2013 providing connections to a range of destinations.

Overall this is a splendid property on a unique setting on circa 54.71 hectares (135 acres) of some of the best limestone land in the County it is all in one block with good sized divisions and extensive road frontage on two roads.   The various fields are divided by the traditional stone walls, typical of the area, which help to create a wonderful charm and sense of times gone by.  Approached via a winding avenue approximately ½ mile from the road the house is positioned on a spectacular elevated setting with farmyard to the rear, Coach House and a derelict Herd’s Cottage.

There are many traditional features remaining including timber windows with shutters, marble fireplaces and plaster work.

Outside there is a range of gardens with some mature timber and the vista over the front paddocks providing a splendid uninterrupted view of the Estate. The Coach house is located behind the main residence and it is a traditional limestone building converted into living accommodation making it ideal for guests or staff. It comprises a kitchen, living room, bathroom & 2 bedrooms (1 en suite).

The yard is located to the rear of the main residence and coach house and comprises a number of traditional farm buildings including a lovely two storey limestone building which could convert to a guest cottage in addition to:

There is a lovely old walled garden to the west of the residence and yards. Although not presently used the walls themselves are in good repair and it could potentially provide a lovely feature to the estate for a new purchaser.

The property is within the jurisdiction of Galway County Council and is located on the edge of the development boundary for Oranmore under the Local Area Plan 2012 - 2018.  A section of the lands adjoining the bay are located in an area classified as a ‘Special Area of Conservation (SAC), Special Protection Area (SPA) and Proposed National Heritage Area (PNHA).
