Enjoying a commanding presence, for both its visually striking architecture and raised site, Whitla Lodge at 15 Lenamore Park, Lisburn would easily fit in with the finest celebrity homes in the Hollywood Hills.
It’s therefore no exaggeration to say that this is somewhat of a landmark property inviting offers over £600,000. Accommodation, spontaneous yet practical, sprawls two floors in this five bedroom and light flooded family home. Clearly no expense has been spared in creating a home of both style and substance.
Designed by an award-winning firm of architects, some of the many talking point features include hand-made exposed bricks on the reception hallway walls, a hand-crafted staircase in wrought iron and oak and feature exposed “industrial” metal beams. Contemporary is without a shadow of a doubt the main design feature here yet this property has a certain timeless feel to it and its insistence on using large windows at every possibility ensures that it will always enjoy a bright and airy feel to it, whatever the elements are up to outside.
Nestled at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac off Lisburn’s prestigious Magheralave Road, the property enjoys a spacious site with a gated entrance and an integral double garage neatly tucked away.
The ground floor comprises a reception hall - featuring American oak flooring, exposed brick and a high vaulted glazed ceiling - and equally stylish drawing, dining and living rooms. The bold design continues on through to the kitchen where a visual and functional masterpiece awaits. And as well as an abundance of storage space, there’s lot of built-in extras including a Smeg gas hob, a Siemens double oven and integrated larder fridge. Meanwhile the matching island and breakfast table will no doubt become a congregation point for the whole family as they await the latest creations from this inspiring kitchen.
A family bathroom and the master bedroom can also be found downstairs while the first floor hosts a further four bedrooms and a shower room.
Outside is an equally lavish affair with lush green spaces to the front and rear of the property, a charming “woodland garden” with a pathway meandering through mature trees and shrubs, a patio and a summerhouse.
For a suburban location, the indoors and the outdoors blend seamlessly here with patio doors leading outside at every possible opportunity. It is meanwhile situated near a whole host of amenities including Wallace High School, Friends’ School, Wallace Park, Bow Street Mall and of course the wealth of shops, cafes and restaurants that Lisburn now enjoys. And if you fancy a trip a little further afield, Lisburn Train Station is also within walking distance.
