The Old School House, Cross, Co. Clare

The Old Cross National School is a unique and character-filled residence dating back to 1893. The property was beautifully converted to residential use approximately 25 years ago. This historic building retains many original features, including high ceilings, traditional fireplaces, and the former outdoor play shed, all of which add to its timeless charm.
Extending to approximately 246 sq. mt. the property offers four spacious bedrooms, 4 bathrooms, a bright, open-plan kitchen dining room, and main reception. To the rear, a south-facing manicured garden with mature shrubs provides a peaceful and private outdoor space.
Ideally located on the edge of Cross Village along the Wild Atlantic Way on the R487 the property enjoys close proximity to local amenities including a shop, bar, GAA facilities, and a community hub. The surrounding West Clare Peninsula is renowned for its stunning coastline and outdoor pursuits.
Having operated successfully as a bed and breakfast, the property offers excellent potential as a private home or tourism venture and provides an ideal base for exploring the West Clare Penisula.
