The accommodation of Voysey House is sensibly arranged over two floors and is very well presented throughout with the design having emphasis towards entertaining on the ground floor.
There is an open entertaining entrance hall which leads to double doors to the drawing room with gas fire, a formal dining room or snug and a study before opening at the rear to a long kitchen living area with a recently fitted bespoke solid wooden and hand painted kitchen with marble detailing and a full suite of built in appliances, larders and storage, which has doors opening to rear patios and gardens.

As mentioned, there is a double garage accessed via the 2 electric doors from the driveway, or the utility / boot room which has loads of storage, and wooden stairs to a half mezzanine storage room with obvious potential for renovation / reconfiguring to an office / further bedroom suite etc – subject to relevant planning consents.
The location to any house purchase is a huge factor and with the water’s edge a couple of minutes’ walk away which leads to the coastal paths through Cultra and Holywood on the left and towards Helens Bay and Bangor on the right, this is sensationally situated.. the Royal Belfast Golf club is on Station Road and there is also easy access to an abundance of local sporting, recreational and hospitality amenities and ideally commutable to Belfast city airport.
In closing, this is a very strong opportunity to purchase a family home on a spacious and stunning corner site in affluent Craigavad.
