Description

'The Old Rectory' is beautifully located on the cusp of Greyabbey village amidst the surrounding farmland of the Newtownards peninsula, and only a light stroll from the shores of Strangford Lough. Set on the eastern shore of the lough, approximately a 30 minute drive from Belfast and easily accessible to the busy shopping town of Newtownards. The subject property is exceptionally well placed in the countryside where you can enjoy all the attributes of rural living, yet still within a comfortable drive to other surrounding villages, Bangor, Donaghadee and Portaferry, as well as several leading schools and amenities within the greater Strangford Lough and Lecale Area.

This gorgeous detached Victorian residence was created in 1875 by the 5th Marquis of Londonderry, after benefitting from the fabulous coal mining wealth of his late mother Frances Anne, for the neighbouring Mount Stewart Estate's Rector. The property was deliberately located in the environs of Mount Stewart House allowing the Rector ease of access to provide services in the private family chapel, yet still benefiting from the privacy and tranquillity that his status would demand.

Set in grounds extending to c. 3 acres providing both formal and informal garden areas, privacy, mature trees, hedging and well stocked shrub beds. The property further benefits from two good sized paddocks with partial native Hawthorn hedge boundaries and individual access points suitable for the transportation of livestock. There are beautiful far reaching views over farmland to Strangford Lough and Scrabo Tower also from the property.

In keeping with its origins, the property has been beautifully maintained and sympathetically restored by our client during their custodianship, with many original features retained, and providing the advantage of a magnificent layout, suitable for family living, extending to approximately 3,300 Sqft.

All in all, a superb Victorian country house, in a most sought after and accessible area of County Down. Viewing is by private appointment only, to arrange please contact our Newtownards branch on 02891 800700.
