Montpelier Park is a beautiful development of new homes nestling amongst the splendour and tree lined avenues of Marlborough, Cadogan, Notting Hill and Cleaver Park.
Perfect for families or young professionals, prospective buyers can take their pick from a collection of apartments and semi-detached homes that are perfect for modern life but in keeping with this important historical setting.
The original Montpelier House was built in 1846 by Thomas Gilmore, a well known spiritual grocer in Belfast - it’s tempting to surmise that the name ‘Montpelier’ derived from Gilmore’s strong wine trading links into the sprawling
Languedoc-Roussillon region in the south of France. In 1870 the property was sold to the druggist, Samuel Gibson, who built number 102 Malone Road with its fine Italianate tower that captured local imagination.
Today Montpelier Park is not only aesthetically appealing but offers practical living spaces utilising the very best in modern comforts and design. Meanwhile the Malone Road has long been considered as one of the most desirable addresses in Northern Ireland. Just on the edge of the city lies a peaceful village style suburb with its multitude of shops, restaurants, cafes, schools and sporting amenities yet the city centre is only a short distance by bus or car.
The Lisburn Road is also minutes from your front door and offers a wealth of culture alongside designer shops, artisan eateries and coffee houses and again, a multitude of blissful green spaces.
Golfing enthusiasts can enjoy the excellent 18 hole course at nearby Malone Golf Club while the Lagan River and its towpath opens up wonderful opportunities for leisurely Sunday walks or cycling.
For the day-to-day of family life, south Belfast has excellent schooling for all ages, as well as the world renowned Queen’s University located just down the road. Commuters are also well catered for; as well as being just 2.5 miles from Belfast city centre, Montpelier Park is close to the M1 motorway network allowing for convenient travel around and beyond the city. For those travelling further afield, the George Best City Airport and Port of Belfast respectively are only a twenty-minute drive away.
