About this property

  • This is a traditionally constructed two storey dwelling covered with a pitched slate roof to the front and has been extended to the rear.

    The house is currently vacant and in a uninhabitable condition throughout and requires total modernisation.

    Adjacent and fronting the courtyard is a single storey outbuilding and the garden is located fronting the Glencairn Road.

    The property requires comprehensive refurbishment, offering purchasers the opportunity to restore and modernise a substantial dwelling in an elevated and highly scenic setting.

    Planning & servicing

    The property benefits from established residential use. The retention and sympathetic refurbishment of the farmhouse is the preferred outcome and an extension may be acceptable subject to design and consent. Note the property sits within the wider curtilage of the National Trust’s Divis estate.

    In relation to services, specifically water which is supplied by a spring located on the Trust’s land, the purchaser will be required to satisfy themselves in relation to the water quality, ongoing maintenance and regulatory compliance.

    Basis of Sale

    For Sale by Private Treaty. Note the property is owned by the National Trust who are seeking to identify a buyer that intends to retain and refurbish the existing dwelling.
