A rare opportunity to acquire a substantial detached residence set on approximately three-quarters of an acre along the prestigious Antrim Road. Occupying a private, elevated site backing directly onto Fortwilliam Golf Club, this impressive home enjoys both seclusion and outstanding development potential. The grounds themselves offer ample scope for further development, with previous approval having been granted for an additional dwelling. While the current owner has not pursued planning permission, the site presents a compelling prospect for those seeking to extend, redevelop, or create an additional residence, subject to the necessary consents. Internally, the property is rich in character and offers generous, well-proportioned accommodation throughout. The ground floor comprises a large open-plan living space ideal for modern family life, complemented by a second reception room currently used as a drawing room. To the rear, the kitchen is accompanied by a separate utility room and pantry, providing excellent functional space. A spacious ground floor WC completes the layout. On the first floor, the home continues to impress with four well-sized bedrooms and a family bathroom. The elevated position ensures exceptional views in all directions — to the front and rear, the property benefits from stunning outlooks over Cave Hill and Belfast Castle, while to the rear there are sweeping views across Fortwilliam Golf Club extending towards Belfast Lough. Externally, the property includes a garage and a substantial outbuilding, the latter of which previously had approval for conversion into a separate dwelling, further enhancing the property's flexibility and appeal. This is a unique opportunity to secure a home of significant character on an expansive site in one of North Belfast’s most sought-after residential locations, offering both immediate comfort and exceptional long-term potential.
