Description
A stunning family residence set in its own mature grounds extending to about 7.65 acres or thereabouts. The property situated on a hill top position, enjoys uninterrupted views to the Black Mountain, Cavehills, Scrabo, the Ards Peninsula and distant views of Scotland on a clear day.
The property is spacious and is designed to ensure that the views are enjoyed from the majority of the rooms. The property was built and fitted to the very highest standards, from the individually designed and hand constructed pitch pine kitchen to the luxury 'Villeroy and Boch' sanitary ware fitted throughout the property. Each fitting and feature received the meticulous attention to detail by the vendors in their quest to create the finest family home.
The spacious ground are lovingly landscaped and created to provide a natural surround to the property, including rolling lawns planted with a most pleasing selection of ornamental and flowering shrubs and trees and provides colour, fruit and seeds for the enormous range of visiting wildlife and birds which visit the gardens throughout the year. The grounds are enclosed on two sides by the semi mature woodlands, intersected by grass paths which provide access to most parts of the woods for man and beast alike.
The property, situated almost equal distance between Comber and Ballygowan, affords the easy access to the city, George Best Airport and Ards with a good selection of sport clubs, shops and churches in the immediate vicinity.
