Additional Information
An extended traditional cottage on a site of around two and a half acres including paddock. This is a real rural retreat and it is situated at the end of a short country lane just two miles on the Newtownards side of Donaghadee centre. The cottage has been modernised in keeping with the original dwelling and now offers, living room and sitting room with log burning stoves, kitchen, dining room, conservatory and bathroom on the ground floor with four bedrooms and study on the first floor.
