Property: Enjoy the quiet country life here in beautiful Gilford

8A Glass Moss Road, Gilford, BT63 6AH

Asking Price: £385,000

With its grand mill, Gilford in Co Down was once at the heart of Ireland’s linen industry and in its heyday, the village’s population swelled.

And although flax spinning ceased in the 1960s, this village’s charm and unadulterated beauty endures. Today homeowners here can enjoy fabulous countryside views, shops and cafes and a convenient location that’s close to many arterial routes.

This impressive four bedroom detached home is no exception. Set in a delightful semi-rural location with a site of approximately half-an-acre, the house is immaculately presented and finished to a superior level of specification, both internally and externally. 

Upon entering the house, viewers are greeted by a sumptuous entrance hall with bespoke Georgian panelling and Italian floor tiles, which flow throughout the entire ground floor.

Two formal reception rooms feature marble fireplaces while the sun room is the ideal spot from which to linger with a coffee on a frosty winter morning.

The kitchen/dining area features an excellent range of high and low level units with chrome brass handles, marble work tops and a coveted breakfast bar.

A separate dining room is meanwhile perfect for more formal dining and dare we say it, Christmas lunch. Downstairs also boasts a utility room and WC.

On the first floor a plethora of pleasant surprises await namely four spacious double bedrooms with either walk-in or built-in wardrobes. The master of course enjoys an ensuite shower room.

The family bathroom is meanwhile a showpiece of excellent and tasteful design with its Victoria and Albert freestanding bath and cosy underfloor heating.

The surprises continue outside with an alarmed double garage and garden store. This fabulous mature site blends seamlessly with the nearby lush green countryside.

Arrive at 8a Glass Moss Road through sandstone pillars and electric gates while extensive lawns offer a blank canvas for further planting and landscaping. The tranquil rear garden with Tobermore brick paving and views of rolling countryside is ideal for summer time entertaining.

Plenty to impress discerning buyers awaits here at Gilford. To see it all first hand call Jones Estate Agents, Lurgan on 028 3832 2244.
