Property: Make the move to Mid-Ulster and Magherafelt

Boasting a practical location in the heart of Mid-Ulster with a whole host of natural and built amenities to enjoy, it’s little wonder that Magherafelt remains a popular place in which to set up home. 

As well as an easy commuting distance to Derry and Belfast, Magherafelt and its immediate surroundings span an area that is rich in history and heritage. The area is also home to top schools, at both primary and secondary level, excellent shops, restaurants and sporting amenities.

This superbly finished detached villa style property - just off the popular Hospital Road - is ideal for families longing to take advantage of the many spoils of living in Mid-Ulster. Situated in the quiet and private cul-de-sac in Ballyheifer you are within a short walking distance of Magherafelt’s town centre.

The property extends to over 3,300sq ft of well appointed accommodation and benefits from four large bedrooms with the master enjoying an en-suite. 

Overall the design is timeless, traditional and functional. The living room boasts rich solid oak wooden flooring, a fireplace, side aspect windows and double French doors leading to the rear of the property. 

The kitchen offers a touch of country charm by way of sublime wooden units and tiled flooring. It meanwhile enjoys an archway though to a dining room - perfect if Come Dine With Me swings by Magherafelt. Or for something a little less flamboyant and dramatic, well hopefully, you can simply use this space to encourage the kids to come off the i-Pads and eat together any given evening. With a little perseverance, a guaranteed ten-out-of-ten every time. 

And if they’re better behaved than the average guest on the Channel 4 show, they can enjoy some fun in the games room. Meanwhile the property also benefits from a detached garage and an annex to the rear of the property which would be perfect for a “granny flat”, teen zone or Airbnb. 

This is a very well thought property covering all eventualities, and even more surprising space comes courtesy of a study room. If you don’t work from home, who knows what else you might be inspired to do in your study? You can always take the lead from Seamus Heaney at his HomePlace in nearby Bellaghy. 

He was famously inspired by his local rural landscapes to write poetry that has an impact to this very day and will no doubt continue to do so for the generations to come.

Indeed here in the heart of Mid-Ulster lies Lough Neagh and of course, the Sperrins. With their heather-clad peaks, they are amongst the biggest yet unfathomably, least explored mountain ranges in Ireland.

Meanwhile Springhill House, a National Trust property last seen in BBC’s Death and Nightingales drama, offers another insight into the area’s history and of course, walled gardens and walking trails that are perfect for a family day out. 

After a busy day exploring you can return to your beautiful home at 4 Limetree Manor relax and begin to compile lifelong memories made in this stunning location.
