Occupying a magnificent semi-rural site extending to circa 3/4 acre, this is a great opportunity to acquire a fantastic detached family home! Clever design maximises a gorgeous setting with the flow of natural light highlighting a stunning open plan layout - the result, a modern, adaptable living space on both levels.
The ground floor comprises of an open plan living/dining area leading to an inviting sun room with French doors leading to the garden, a stunning fitted kitchen with island, and two well-proportioned bedrooms, master with ensuite shower room. A spacious reception hall with double height ceiling, utility room and WC add to the list of features.
Progressing upstairs, this fine home continues to impress with its fantastic open plan theme - the vendors currently use the upstairs area as an extremely functional and attractive living space with views across the nearby fields and Strangford Lough allowing you to enjoy the sheer beauty of this captivating area. There are also a further two well proportioned bedrooms and family bathroom.
Outside, the property is one of three similarly constructed private residences set back from the Ballygelagh Road. 2, Rectory Close is entered via its own sweeping, tree-lined driveway leading to a stunning Tier-walled patio and front entrance steps. The beautifully landscaped lawns are bounded by the original rectory orchard stone wall. There is more than ample parking for cars, caravans, boats and/or horseboxes, etc . A further point of interest- there where previously passed plans for the addition of a self-contained flat with integral double garage.
This property is located on the Ards Peninsula, an area which is renowned for outstanding natural beauty. The new occupants will have the opportunity to enjoy the semi-rural setting, coastal walks at Cloughey beach and Kearney National Trust Village. Kirkistown Golf Club, National Trust's Mount Stewart and Castle Ward to name but a few local attractions are also close by. All in all, this stunning and easily accessible property really needs to be viewed to be fully appreciated.
