Description
The sale of 'Waterside' represents a rare opportunity to purchase a period country house with gardens, land and outbuildings set amidst some of County Downs most beautiful countryside. The house has been sympathetically extended, modernised and presented to a high standard throughout. The accommodation is of comfortable proportions with the majority of the rooms enjoying views over the beautiful gardens. To the rear an attractive countyard has been created bordered by the garaging and stable block. Beyond the gardens are the all weather tennis court and the fields which will have obvious appeal to those with equestrian interests.
Waterside is well located within a few minutes drive of the popular town of Saintfield. The area is served by a number of highly regarded schools and the attractions of Strangford Lough and the Mournes are within easy reach.
