Description

Dating back to the 1890s, Bennet House began as one of just a few homes in Helen's Bay. Today, the property has retained many original features to include sash windows and tiled floors, and boasts large, bright rooms with high ceilings. The accommodation includes a spacious kitchen diner which leads into a hardwood double glazed sun room and grand drawing room. There is an additional reception room which could be used as a ground floor bedroom if required. Upstairs, three well proportioned bedrooms make this home ideal for growing families, with a fixed staircase to a large floored attic providing ample storage. Approached by a private driveway, shaded by mature shrubs and trees, the property enjoys a secluded setting. This fine home benefits from a notably private, paved rear patio garden which enjoys the sun throughout most of the day. To the front of the property, there is a matching outbuilding with power which could be easily converted into an ideal home office. Just a five minute walk down the road brings you to Helen's Bay beach and Crawfordsburn Country Park, with it's beautiful coastal walks and clear waters for those brave enough for a dip! Also within walking distance are the golf and tennis clubs, churches, and a railway station. With so much on offer in such a sought after area, we anticipate high demand and encourage early viewing.
