Our Home For Exchange

Description of the home we are offering for exchange

We live in a large 4 bedroom semi-detached house. It is a very comfortable and well stocked home, with lots of books and toys. We have a large living room, kitchen and dining area. The back of our house faces West, so our dining area is very bright in the summer and overlooks our large, enclosed, back garden. We have a patio where we have barbeques in the summer evenings! We have two large bedrooms upstairs (one ensuite), and two smaller kids bedrooms. The recently converted garage downstairs has a single futon if required.There are plenty of green areas around our home.

We are 2.5 kms from Galway city's beach, Salthill, which has a long promenade, a popular diving tower and fantastic beaches to swim from. Salthill is a well-known seaside resort, with many cafes, cinemas, restaurants, amusements and a heated indoor swimming pool.
