Jo was fantastic! From the first time we met her we knew she was the right agent for the job. She was super helpful and helped us so much in getting our solicitor to do his job, and to keep the purchaser happy when there were a few hiccups. Honestly, she made the process painless. Thank you!

Joanne Crawford is without doubt the most professional and pleasant agency staff member we have dealt with. Templeton Robinson and Joanne in particular made the process of selling our property surprisingly straight forward. Thank you.

Joanne Crawford, at Ballyhackamore branch, is the most driven, scrupulous and immediate estate agent, I’ve met in 33 years of buying and selling property. Communicates constantly, chases up all parties and makes it all happen. Bought and sold with her. Joanne also sold the house next door. It had previously been with another agent and the owners had taken it off the market. It sold within a week, after I recommended Ms Crawford to the owners. A credit to her Profession and a role model for the industry.

Description
A rare mid-century modern residence set within a beautifully mature and private site seven miles from Belfast.
Designed in the 1960s by an architect owner and influenced by the work of Le Corbusier and Frank Lloyd Wright, this distinctive home showcases characteristic features of the era, including cedar cladding, copper detailing, and decorative internal brickwork.
The property sits within generous grounds featuring sweeping lawns, established trees and specimen trees including a magnificent copper beech and an Irish fairy tree offering exceptional privacy and a tranquil setting.
While requiring renovation, the house retains strong architectural integrity and presents a compelling opportunity for a design-led restoration.
Well located for access to Belfast, airports, schools, and the coast, this is a unique opportunity to reimagine a home of genuine character and provenance.
