The Owners' Perspective...
"We have enjoyed many happy years raising our children at our beautiful period home, 'Sandringham Villas'. It is a very special house, with an abundance of original features, such as wooden shutters, ornate ceiling roses and even a charming kitchen bread oven, now a cosy fire. And although we are only a stroll away from coffee shops and restaurants in Belmont or a short drive from Holywood town and Belfast City Centre, the house has a country feel surrounded by trees and secluded garden, attracting visiting wildlife. We have enjoyed wonderful times throughout the seasons in the outdoor kitchen, entertaining friends and family.
The spacious and bright accommodation is flexible for anyone who wishes to enjoy a truly unique home in a most sought after location.
It will be very hard to leave our home but the countryside is calling now, so time to hand over the keys. We wish the new owners every happiness here."
