Rarely does such an opportunity present itself to the market, situated on the outskirts of the award winning village of Broughshane, Co. Antrim and within an area identified for it's 'Outstanding Natural Beauty' this site represents a rare opportunity to acquire a country residence in the sought after Braid Valley.

Extending to 4.2 acres the site is presently occupied by a range of traditionally built farm buildings, including a stone farm house, stone barn, concrete cattle byre, corrugated hay shed and stone log store. The existing buildings are not in a habitable condition however the stone from the site could be retained and used in the construction of a replacement property. The site benefits from full planning consent to construct an inspiring 4,600 sqft country residence uniquely designed by one of the provinces leading architects.

The site also includes a hazel woodland, two grassed paddock areas, front and rear entrance lanes and an area of stone quarry face with a natural waterfall. Commanding views extend to Slemish mountain in the south and the locally famous Skerry Church and St Patricks leap to the east.

The 4,600 sqft replacement dwelling has been thoughtfully designed to compliment the aesthetics of the site and provide a truly unique design lead living space. The front elevations have been designed to reflect the existing buildings on the site with a distinctly rural feel, featuring sliding sash windows, stone work and detailed wooden facia and soffits. In contrast the south facing rear elevations have been designed to a distinctly modern theme, featuring full height glass windows to avail of the evening sun and stunning views over open countryside towards Slemish mountain.

Internally the design is a thoughtful mix of traditional ideas married with  elements of contemporary panache. A stunning master bedroom suite extends to include a sitting room, balcony, his and hers walk in wardrobes and a wet room. The gallery hall and landing areas are punctuated with elements of the exterior stone detailing and the full height hall is broken up with a bridge walkway. The full detailed drawings really must be viewed to be truly appreciated and will be available at our Kells sales office.

The site is offered either with full planning consent as a self build project or alternatively on request Acorn Homes Bespoke will be happy to quote to complete the property to the clients exact specification.
