By using Templeton Robinson we had more viewings in the first week than we ever had. Moreover the feedback was tremendous with all viewers being telephoned the next day for their opinions, with these comments then being relayed to us. Not only that, all first viewings were conducted by your staff, only second viewings being conducted by ourselves. Also all phone calls about the property were logged and sent by email to us.
The strange thing was, all the companies were charging the same commission! All in all a fantastic service, don't try the rest, use the best.

Neil, just to say a big thank you for all your and your team’s help with selling our property. A few tricky and stressful moments but with your help, we got there in the end! We’ll be sure to give you a ring when we decide to downsize.

I have dealt with Neil Templeton re the sale and purchase of various homes over a period of almost twenty years and can thoroughly recommend him. His professional, pragmatic and friendly approach has always made what can be a stressful and daunting process as smooth and painless as possible. The sale of my most recent home has just successfully completed and he provided me with excellent service and communication throughout. (The TR photographer also deserves a special mention for producing a beautiful series of pictures of my home). The eventual selling price far exceeded my expectations so obviously I am delighted. Thank you again to Neil and the Templeton Robinson team at Ballyhackamore!

Description
Having been the subject of a comprehensive yet sympathetic programme of modernisation in the last few years, this handsome villa therefore requires the purchaser to do little except move in.
As soon as you enter the charming reception hall with its parquet flooring, delightful sitting area and fireplace, you get a feel for the warmth and character the property exudes.
Beautifully presented throughout, there is a wealth of accommodation spread over just two floors. The well-appointed, open plan kitchen is large enough to incorporate casual dining and sitting areas making it an ideal focal point for modern family living.
In turn, it opens out into a private, south-facing rear garden which is perfect for both adults and children alike.
Long regarded as one of Belfast's premier addresses, Knockdene is within a short stroll of both Ballyhackamore and Cherryvalley with their wealth of amenities and eateries. A superb range of leading schools for all ages is also in the vicinity.
It is only upon internal inspection that one can appreciate all this stunning, refurbished home has to offer.
