Sale Type: For Sale by Private Treaty
Overall Floor Area: 721 m² Substantial Period Property...

Franklins are delighted to introduce ‘Malin Hall', a classic ‘Protected' period property dating back to 1758. Within easy walking distance to the picturesque village of Malin Co. Donegal the property is a detached four-bay, two-storey over basement house with a dormer attic. Extended around 1900 the property now offers an additional four-bay one and a half storey to the east with a single storey over basement to include a swimming pool (now disused) to the rear. The layout of this property is best understood by viewing the floorplan which accompanies these property details. Some of the more important features of the home are the high ceilings, the original fireplaces and the original cornicing. To the outside the property comes with 5.1 acres and enjoys the most spectacular views over Trawbregga Bay.

The Connolly Foundation
Kathleen & Michael Connolly the former owners bought the entire Malin Hall estate back in 1970. Then with 100 acres the Connolly's vision was to create a location where those in housing need could enjoy their twilight years in a warm secure environment. The foundation was formed following Kathleen's untimely death in 1999 to make the vision a reality. It now offers independent living for the over 60's in Malin, Co. Donegal to those in housing need and in particular welcomes applications from emigrants wanting to return to their native Ireland.
