This distinctive Residence can only be described as one of the most impressive properties in the Ballymoney area occupying a choice rural elevated setting with panoramic views over miles of the surrounding countryside yet within a short drive of the town centre, schools, churches and all local amenities. Rosemount boasts an array of original antique fixtures including an impressive Mahogany Balustrade staircase, original fireplaces in many of the Living Rooms and Bedrooms, original tiled flooring in the Reception Hall and Kitchen, coved ceilings, hand made Kitchen, an antique cast iron roll top bath, exposed eaves and a range of sympathetically restored outbuildings to the rear. The spectacular views stretch on a clear day from the Antrim Hills/Knocklayde Mountain to the Donegal Hills.
It’s not surprising then to find out that this location has been the family home since the 1700's with the current property constructed circa 1924. In brief the property provides 4 spacious bedrooms, 3 reception rooms, shower room and bathroom, scullery, study, useful attic rooms and a range of stone built outbuildings including the original stables, extensive hay loft, the bull house, Tractor house plus the option to purchase up to circa 19 acres of agricultural land.
The property and outbuildings were extensively renovated circa 1992 retaining all the original features as mentioned and therefore providing a unique opportunity to purchase this fine residence in superb order, situated on a choice plot and offering a range of original features.
