Brae House, 3 Port Davy Road, Whitehead, Carrickfergus BT38

Additional Information

Nestling on the cliff top between Whitehead and Blackhead and approached by driving through Whitehead golf course, this stunning detached family home enjoys magnificent panoramic views over Belfast Lough & the North Channel to the Scottish coast. The property which offers a wealth of well planned family
accommodation features three generous reception rooms as well as an individually designed Victorian style conservatory and spacious entertainment room whilst the mahogany fitted kitchen (with Aga) and casual dining area is some 40' in length. On the upper floors there are four bedrooms - including master suite with en suite shower room - 2 attic rooms and family bathroom. Externally the continuity is maintained with a double garage, and range of quality outbuildings including a barbeque room. The grounds extend to around 1.5 acres comprising landscaped gardens with adjoining field with poly tunnel and raised vegetable beds and with the benefit of an access to Donegall Avenue.
We cannot possibly begin to fully describe the quality and calibre of accommodation on offer, or indeed the very nature of the location on what is arguably one of Co. Antrims finest sites and would strongly urge
early personal appraisal.
