Ashbrook is an exceptional contemporary residence set on an elevated and private site extending to approximately 12.5 acres, offering a rare opportunity to acquire a home of outstanding quality with breathtaking panoramic views across rolling countryside towards Scrabo Tower and Strangford Lough.
Accessed via impressive stone pillars and remote-controlled gates, a sweeping driveway leads through beautifully manicured gardens to the main residence, constructed in 2002 and extending to circa 4,000 sq ft of bright, well-proportioned accommodation. The property has been thoughtfully designed for both modern family living and entertaining, with a striking double-height reception hallway, an elegant drawing room with open gas fire, and a superb Lonsdale kitchen with a full range of integrated appliances, open to a casual dining area. A breakfast room and sun room, complete with vaulted ceiling and multi-fuel stove, both enjoy stunning views over the grounds and open onto a variety of patio areas ideal for outdoor entertaining. Additional accommodation includes a family room, formal dining room and separate utility room.
The property offers five generous bedrooms, including a luxurious principal suite with dressing room and ensuite, alongside one further ensuite bedroom with walk-in wardrobes, and a well-appointed family bathroom.
Externally, the property is equally impressive. The grounds are laid out in rolling lawns with mature trees, a full-size tennis court, and a range of outdoor entertaining areas, including a raised decked viewpoint capturing the spectacular surroundings. A charming stream, the Ballyrussell Burn, meanders through the lower part of the site, adding a unique natural feature.
A range of outbuildings provide excellent additional accommodation and flexibility, including a double car port, a large steel frame barn, hay shed barn currently used for car storage, and an open barn ideal for machinery and equipment. A partially completed unit with planning permission for studio/gym offers further potential for a self-contained one-bedroom unit, ideal for a granny flat, guest accommodation or home office.
In addition, "The Cottage" (45A) is a fully approved and operational tourist accommodation unit, offering a one-bedroom layout with open-plan living, providing an excellent income-generating opportunity.
Ashbrook is ideally located within easy reach of Belfast, Newtownards, Comber and George Best Belfast City Airport, combining the tranquillity of a countryside setting with superb convenience.
A truly outstanding home, offering space, privacy and versatility in a spectacular setting.
