Description

A magnificent family home situated on a private, elevated site off the prestigious Ballymenoch Road. Surrounded by beautifully landscaped gardens, this fine home is enveloped by flower beds, raised vegetable and herb beds and mature trees - parting to reveal glimpses of Belfast Lough. Panoramic views of the Lough can be enjoyed from any of the rear bedrooms. Having been thoughtfully designed for family living of the highest comfort, the property boasts well-proportioned and laid out accommodation. Visitors arrive into a bright, double height entrance and are immediately drawn into the modern kitchen, overlooking the garden. Flowing through to casual dining and family areas, the open plan space allows for quality time together whilst leaving space for independent activities. A feature, double sided, wood burning stove connects to the sunroom - a delightful room surrounded by stylish, graphite, bifold doors, leading out the expansive deck and patio. To the front of the home, the largest reception room serves as an impressive drawing room or bespoke design cinema room. Featuring a complete Flicks entertainment system, the room is equipped with a projector and automated screen, surround sound and electric curtains - making it ideal for family movie nights. On the first floor there are five double bedrooms, including a master with ensuite shower room and walk in wardrobe. In addition, a good-sized home office; a new essential to many households. Although it is hard to choose, perhaps the property's greatest boast is its impressive outdoor entertainment specification. With an outdoor kitchen, bar, sunken seating area, hot tub and sundeck, it is difficult to imagine a better set up. And yet! Beneath the deck is the original swimming pool, which could be easily reopened should future owners prefer. Alongside all this home has to offer, buyers will appreciate the potential earner that is a detached, studio, guest house. Fitted with a modern kitchen, shower room and sauna, the studio is ready to launch as an Airbnb or indeed teenager annex. It is clear to see that this is a truly exceptional home and one that we anticipate will attract a host of buyers. Early viewing is strongly advised to avoid disappointment.
