Lurgill Hall, Lough Road, Upper Ballinderry BT28 2PQ

Additional Information

‘Lurgill Hall’ is centrally located in Ballinderry, ‘the Town of the Oak’, an area steeped in history and natural beauty. This is the first of four exclusive properties to be built at this private avenue off the Lough Road, and less than 2 miles from the main A26 Moira to airport road. Each unique property will be a large country house individually designed to complement the private grounds in which it sits.

The sale of Lurgill Hall presents the opportunity for the insightful client to unleash his or her creativity to achieve the ‘bespoke’ home of their dreams. The developers of Lurgill Hall, Angela and Gerry Lennon, have drawn on years of experience in creating individual quality homes to design a truly outstanding property where every possible need has been considered. Lurgill Hall is now at a stage where it awaits its purchasers to express their sense of style and create their very own ‘grand design’.

To view this home is to know that every aspect of its design has been meticulously researched and carefully considered, from the position of the landing window that expertly frames the old oak tree greeting visitors on arrival, to the vast master bedroom suite capturing the morning sun and sound of the river, and of course not forgetting the amazing “heart of the house”, the huge open plan kitchen/dining/living/garden room which is just breath taking at 1065sqft.

The approach to Lurgill Hall has beautiful views over Lough Neagh to the Sperrins beyond. On arrival at the stone bridge over the Rooghan River which borders the site, the house reveals its true grandeur. The property offers an impressive 5850 sq ft of living accommodation in total.

Through the grand double doors of the natural stone semi circular entrance, you find yourself in a spacious reception hall, which would be enhanced equally by either a contemporary or more traditional spindled staircase. Similarly “the heart of the house”, the kitchen/dining/living/garden room area awaits personal choice, be it traditional, contemporary or middle of the road. The developers are mindful of individual preferences and will work with the purchaser to achieve the desired outcome.

Downstairs there is also a large drawing room with views over the grounds to the river, a further reception room suitable as a library/ dining room etc., and a formal study. The rear hallway has a shower room and utility room/secondary kitchen, with another staircase giving access to a private guest bedroom suite.

On climbing the main staircase you arrive on a semi-circular landing area where you are greeted by a picture window designed to drink in the country views. There is an amazing master bedroom suite extending to 555 sq ft, as well as three further double bedrooms (2 with en suite facilities) and a main bathroom in this part of the house.

Outside, the gardens will be finished in lawn, and from the natural stone entrance pillars with electronically operated gates, the driveway sweeps to a second set of stone pillars with access to a private courtyard. Off this courtyard there is a detached three car garage and gardener’s store (860 sq ft).

An external staircase leads to a separate annexe extending to 800 sq ft, complete with shower room and patio doors opening on to a large balcony. This space is ideal for a variety of uses, such as a teenager’s den, a home cinema, games room, or for those who work from home – an office suite/ consulting room, with facilities for a kitchen area if desired (subject to necessary approvals).

Lurgill Hall sits in approximately 2 acres of grounds. However should the purchaser require it, there may be an opportunity to purchase further adjoining lands (at separate valuation).
