Description
We are delighted to offer this exceptional residence set in the most exquisite gardens and adjoining paddock extending to c. 2.5 acres.
The accommodation has been designed to be versatile, making it suitable for most family needs. The luxury kitchen with dining area open through to a bright lounge with wood burning stove, making this space the heart of the home. A sun room to the front of the property provides a relaxing place to sit and enjoy views of the surrounding gardens and countryside. Four good sized bedrooms, study, family bathroom and utility room complete this immaculate home. The layout of the property makes it ideal to create a separate annex for a mature family member or to run a business from home (subject to planning).
Double electric gates open to a asphalt drive leading to the integral garage and ample parking to the front and side of the house.
The residence enjoys a most pleasing tranquil setting surrounded by delightful gardens that have been created and meticulously cared for by the current vendors. A walled garden and paved terrace are the perfect spots to enjoy warm summer days with open aspect views of the countryside, while the generous garden to the side provides an ideal space for children and pets to play.
The adjoining paddock is ideal for those who wish to keep a horse or pony, sheep or a playground for pets.
Saintfield and Ballygowan are equal distance from the property and host a wide selection of shops, churches, pharmacies and both primary and secondary schools, while public transport is close by, making Belfast an easy commute. This home enjoys all the benefits of rural living combined with the convenience of towns a few minutes drive away.
