LOCATION! LOCATION! LOCATION!

Situated in an enviable location immediately adjacent to the quay and enjoying fabulous views across the inner harbour towards Hillsborough, is this simply stunning grade 2 listed period property that dates back to the 1500's that has been sympathetically refurbished by the vendors to an incredibly high standard, retaining a wealth of character and charm whilst being stylishly blended with modern touches. The property currently makes for a comfortable home for the growing family but would also suit those seeking a sizeable property to relocate or a sound buy to let investment. This truly exceptional home warrants an early internal inspection to avoid disappointment.

The living accommodation on the ground floor comprises a spacious entrance hall, which has a useful storage cupboard. The kitchen is a light an airy room, chic and stylish by design and features attractive base level units, slate worktops, ceramic sink. The range cooker is tucked away nicely in one of the original archways.

The utility room is located at the rear of the property and features a Belfast sink and wall mounted vintage ship lights. Moving up through the property on to the first floor there is a spacious living room enjoying superb views over towards the harbour, bedroom 2 and a separate cloak room.
