Offering bright and spacious accommodation throughout, on the ground floor, the property comprises of a reception hall, downstairs cloaks and WC, family room, separate lounge with bow window, bespoke fitted Häcker kitchen with range of integrated appliances, open plan to ample dining space, and a utility room. To the first floor, there are four well-proportioned bedrooms, principal with ensuite shower room and built in slide robes, a luxurious family bathroom with white suite and separate WC. The property further benefits from gas fired central heating, uPVC double glazing throughout and a fully floored roof space, excellent for storage.

Externally, the property benefits from a sweeping tree lined driveway, ample off-street parking for two to three cars leading to a detached garage and surrounding mature gardens with excellent privacy and a southerly aspect.

Sandown Road is one of the most desirable addresses which offers ease of access for the city commuter and is within walking distance to the vibrant village of Ballyhackamore with its range of local amenities including restaurants and boutiques. The property also lies within the catchment area to a range of the country’s most prestigious schools and close access to Comber and Connswater Greenways.

Properties of this calibre rarely present themselves to the open market we therefore recommend viewing at your earliest convenience.
