The bespoke kitchen is a standout feature, enjoying a dual-aspect outlook that fills the room with natural light. Fitted with handcrafted cabinetry, quality work surfaces, a traditional Belfast sink and ample storage, the space also comfortably accommodates a breakfast table, making it ideal for everyday family living.
Situated adjacent to the kitchen, the versatile dining room overlooks the front of the property and provides an ideal setting for formal dining.

Engineered oak flooring complements the room, while a modern wood-burning stove provides an attractive focal point and cosy ambience.
