Brigadoon 6 Drumhirk Avenue, Newtownards BT23 7QA

Additional Information

Brigadoon provides a unique opportunity to purchase a large family detached home set on circa 20 acres comprising of stunning gardens, good sized paddocks, an Olympic sized sand school, stables, commercial storage and a picturesque lake.

Set between Newtownards and Bangor, within easy reach of Donaghadee, Comber, and Belfast City Centre, this property offers convenience for those with equestrian interests or the family seeking exceptional space.

The accommodation of the main house extends to circa 6,000 sq ft, and is arranged over two floors. On the ground floor there is an impressive entrance hall leading to living room with double height ceiling and gallery over the first floor study. To the right there is a formal drawing room which leads to a living / dining room with panoramic views over the gardens. The fully fitted kitchen opens to a casual dining room, and a master bedroom with dressing room and ensuite. On the first floor there is a landing with staircase to a viewing point overlooking the front gardens. There are five further bedrooms, two with ensuite shower rooms and a family bathroom. To the rear of the house there is a self contained annex with living room, kitchen, bedroom and bathroom – ideal for a live in nanny, an elderly relative or teenager.

Externally, there are impressive double entrance gates leading to the driveway which meanders through the mature gardens to the front turning circle. On either side of the driveway there are paddocks and mature gardens, a large lake with timber jetty, boathouse and stone folly creating a beautiful setting. To the rear of the property there are ten modern stables, four of which front onto an Olympic sand school. There is also a 4,000 sq ft commercial storage unit and several garages located to the rear of the main house, and rolling lawns overlooked by patio areas.

It is rare to get an opportunity to purchase a property of this calibre and we recommend viewing without hesitation.
