This impressive detached country residence offers extensive and flexible family living accommodation (c. 2650 sq ft) whilst occupying a choice situation also within a short drive to the main Ballymena Road leading to the North Coast.
Although substantial in size it really does feel like a rural retreat with the numerous windows providing lots of natural light and providing delightful views over the surrounding countryside towards Slemish Mountain in the distance to the front.
A grand reception hall provides access to the main living rooms and the ground floor bedrooms (including the large formal living room/open plan to the sun room) whilst the feature sweeping oak staircase leads to a gallery landing/relaxation area, the upper bedrooms and a shower room.
No expense has been spared when the current owners constructed this fine property – including the extensively fitted kitchen with integrated appliances and granite worktops; feature double doors with glazed fans over in the main reception rooms; quality fittings throughout; attractive marble fireplaces and even a convenient beam vacuum system.
It’s approached via a stone pillar wall entrance from the main road on a shared tarmac lane continuing onto a private tarmac driveway through the gardens and continuing to a parking area at the rear. The large areas in lawn provide ample space to relax or for the children/grandchildren to play.
There are few properties on the market that offer so much in terms of accommodation and location with superb views from the same. As such we recommend inspection to fully appreciate this superb residence.
