Description
Approached by a private winding drive and nestled within well maintained grounds is Ardara House - a gracious Victorian residence sympathetically converted into an exclusive complex of apartments.
Built in 1875 by Sir Thomas Andrews for his family, its imposing presence is both captivating and intriguing as is its history and list of famed residents including a Prime Minister and Thomas Andrews Junior, the designer of the ill fated Titanic.
Each of the seven homes in this delightful environment offers an individuality and character not seen in new build apartments and will appeal to those seeking quality and comfort in an easily managed package. This particular ground floor apartment boasts as its main reception room the spacious mahogany panelled former billiard room of the original residence which is rumoured to have been created by the same highly skilled craftsmen who fitted out the luxury liner from which it derives it name.
With its high ceilings, bay window, parquet flooring and other Victorian features the well proportioned accommodation exudes a pleasant, relaxed atmosphere and recently upgraded enjoys every modern convenience. Being a resident here is to be part of Northern Irish history.
