The picturesque setting offers gorgeous views of the River Erne – with the home read to move into straight away.
Stunning images show the “unique” property elegantly nestled within 12 acres of mature woodland.
For boating enthusiasts, the island is a stone-throw ride away from the neighbouring Lough Erne Yacht Club, Devenish Island, The Manor House, and Enniskillen town.
The home’s interior comes complete with timber finished rooms, glazed picture windows and a range of storage buildings and workshops are adjacent to the residence – providing excellent facilities.
The estate’s private marina is a short stroll from the Residence.
Long Island in Lower Lough Erne has gone on the market for £550,000.
A typical mortgage for the house is £2,141,15 per month, equating to the average monthly rent in a large number of boroughs across London.
For example, the vibrant east-end boroughs of Hackney and Tower Hamlets – popular with young people – cost an average of £2,119 and £2,069 respectively.
