Description
Certainly one of Northern Ireland's most impressive 'Grand Designs' , this detached home is a fantastic arhitectural testament to open plan living. The current owners have created a fabulous contemporary home set within approximately one acre on an elevated site. This sale offers the opportunity to own a property with some of the finest sea views in County Antrim. From the famous Harland and Wolff cranes at the top of the Lough and the Mournes beyond then across to the North Down Coast and over to Scotland, the panoramic view is ever changing and spectacular whatever the season.
'Misty Meadows' is a superb example of how, with careful planning and attention to detail it is possible to integrate a contemporary design into semi rural surroundings almost seamlessly. From an initial external appraisal one cannot be prepared for what lies behind the facade. Internally lies a wealth of well-proportioned accommodation together with a host of design features, which will be sure to set it apart from any other property in its bracket.
The level of finish and specification will appeal to the design conscious buyer with features such as vaulted ceilings, neutral colour scheme, porcelain flooring, and the imaginative use of glazing. For the environmentally concerned purchaser, the present owners have installed a solar panel for heating water and high grade insulation to keep heating costs to a minimum. The electrical installation incorporates an array of lighting with ample plugs, TV points, Beam central vacuum system and telephone sockets, aswell as two key fobs to enable switching of interior and exterior lighting circuits while approaching the house from your car!
The generous accommodation comprises four well proportioned bedrooms, including master with stylish ensuite wet room & walk in wardrobe and first floor bedroom with ensuite shower room. The luxurious family bathroom is furnished with a designer suite and incorporates a feature wet area. The kitchen incorporates high quality integrated appliances and granite work tops, and offers casual dining in the form of a large central island unit with seating for six people. The open plan living and dining room offers more breathtaking views with many large picture windows â truly an amazing entertaining space with room for a twelve seater table.
The rear walled and raised bed garden and patio area is accessed from both the lounge and the rear bedroom. With its two water features and mood lighting it is a secret place to relax in during the day or in the evening.
A larger patio area is accessed via French doors from the kitchen and is paved and lit with stainless steel bollards.

Externally the sweeping driveway offers parking for several cars and with the planning permission in place to build a large detached garage and boat shed, there is more than ample storage space. The extensive, illuminated gardens offer a tranquil area to relax, entertain or simply enjoy the panoramic views. Also within the grounds is an outbuilding which, although needing complete renovation, offers potential to extend the accommodation further.
