Additional Information

The Windmill

Enjoying panoramic views of Strangford Lough and the surrounding countryside as far as the Mountains of Mourne, we present this extended, converted Windmill and adjoining Millar's cottage in the heart of Co.Down to the rental market.

Situated on the natural hilltop setting of Killinchy – a village within the Strangford Lough Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

Steeped in history dating back to circa 1702, this landmark property has been sympathetically converted into a family home to the highest specifications – providing every modern convenience while retaining its original charm.

As featured in Northern Ireland Homes & Lifestyle ('Unique Situation,' August 2018), the Windmill is immaculately presented throughout, with well-proportioned accommodation incorporating four bedrooms, a luxurious pine kitchen, large dining room, and drawing room.

Bordered by mature hedging providing both a private and secure environment and the ideal setting to enjoy all the seasons surveying the Lough, Mourne Mountains and the open countryside.
