Looking for a fresh start? Well, an entire remote island is up for sale in Ireland for just over 700,000 and it could be yours.

Shore Island is situated on the Shannon Estuary between Limerick and Clare, three miles from Shannon Airport. Lapped by glistening waters, surrounded by greenery and teeming with wildlife, anyone on the hunt for a quieter way of life will be sure to love it here.

It sounds like a dream place to escape to, but new owners will have to build their own home. While there is a shell of the old house, it's in need of a total refurb (you'll need planning permission first). In fact, there are a number of old building remains on the island that can be transformed into houses. If you're after an exciting development opportunity, then this could be the project for you.

"This island property is likely to be bought by a person who values their privacy and an unusual property. The island is surrounded by deep, tidal waters and is accessible by boat at all times," explains the listing.

The island is currently used for agricultural purposes and has grazing cattle throughout the year. If you're an enthusiast for the great outdoors, love getting hands-on with nature and want to take care of the local wildlife, then this is the place for you.
