Significant waterfront home hits market in Fahan for €1.35m


Mouse Hall includes four bedrooms, three bathrooms, and a wealth of original detail throughout
A rare and refined coastal residence has come to market in one of Donegal’s most prestigious addresses. Mouse Hall, a four-bedroom period home set on just under five acres of stunning waterfront grounds in Fahan, is guiding at €1,350,000.
This remarkable property combines architectural pedigree, rich provenance and exceptional development potential.


Built in 1929, the house was constructed using salvaged stone, windows and features from Glengollan House, a once-grand local estate.
The result is a one-of-a-kind home that merges the character of a bygone era with the timeless appeal of a coastal villa. Although not a listed building, Mouse Hall is recognised by the National Inventory of Architectural Heritage for its distinctive style and setting.
This was the lifelong home of the late Caroline Dickson, one of Ireland’s foremost female architects. Dickson, who established her practice in Derry in 1971, was the diocesan architect for the Derry and Raphoe for more than four decades.
Her deep commitment to conservation work and her involvement in heritage projects such as the stabilisation of Fahan Old Church reflect the sensitivity and integrity embedded in Mouse Hall’s design.
The property sits well back from the road amid beautifully mature gardens and woodland, offering privacy and tranquillity.


Located in the townland of Carrowmullen in the heart of Fahan, Mouse Hall offers more than just a home, it promises a lifestyle.
With golden beaches, scenic coastal walks, excellent dining, and a thriving marina nearby, it is a rare chance to own a piece of Donegal’s architectural and natural heritage.
Mouse Hall is jointly listed by Sean Furey Auctioneers in Buncrana and Savills.
