Calm blues are the vibe the owners of 10a Kilcorig Road have incorporated in their design of this newly renovated home just minutes from Lisburn and Belfast.

espite its proximity to city and town centres, the four-bedroom rural property, on the market for offers over £450,000, is set in a rural location off the Ballinderry Road, and offers easy access for those looking for a base from which to commute.

It has recently undergone extensive refurbishment and modernisation, which is showcased by the vibrant yet soothing design choices.

If shades of cerulean, cobalt or adventurous azure are not quite your thing, there’s plenty of opportunity to put your stamp on this property while also making the most of the amenities it offers.

Estate agent Ashley Black of Templeton Robinson,which is marketing the property, described 10a Kilcorig Road as “a stunning rural home with contemporary flair, recently renovated by its current owners”.

“It’s set on a mature and secluded site of 2.5 acres, and initial interest has been very strong,” he said.

The house has a contemporary finish, with timber cladding detail to the front and an automatic gate for that extra bit of privacy and security.

While these features make for an appealing exterior, there’s so much more inside.

This home really makes use of its large grounds, as shown by the spacious decked space to the rear, which includes designated areas for eating, bathing and relaxing.

There’s also a generous lounge featuring a fetching wood-burning stove, with the room opening up to a light and bright solid wood in-frame kitchen with granite worktops and a dining area.

The kitchen, which also includes a marble tiled floor, is spacious, comes with integrated appliances and leads to a separate utility room with ceramic tiled floor.

These rooms are decorated in similar colours, ensuring an easy flow to the house and instant relaxation once you walk through the door.

Unusually for a property of this type, there is plenty of scope for making it more accessible, which is sure to appeal to potential buyers with easy adaptability and multi-purpose rooms in mind.

The well-sized ground-floor bedroom could easily become a home office, for example.

There’s also a sizeable ground-floor family bathroom with floor-to-ceiling tiling, a free-standing bath and a separate shower cubicle.

Among the stars of the show is the aforementioned reception/garden room and outdoor area.

You could easily get lost in big plans for this decked space, which currently houses no less than a hot tub, alongside a shaded seating area, within the seclusion of several acres.

Outdoor dining is catered for in the current set-up, which would also be ideal for catching the last of the summer sun.

Leading to and framing this space are twin sliding uPVC doors.

In the colder months, the appealing wood-burning stove, which stands on a slate hearth, will provide that always-welcome touch of cosiness.

Everything is decorated to the owner’s requirements, which clearly include ensuring plenty of light, whether in the dead of winter or at the height of the summer.

Head upstairs, and there are another three bedrooms, some of which are decorated for children and feature a roof design created to instil a sense of seclusion and comfort.

The master is tastefully designed and has an en suite shower room with a Velux window for added privacy.

There’s also another bathroom tucked away on the first floor with a bath and separate shower cubicle.

On the landing of the first floor, there’s a study area that could be used for homework. It’s not the biggest, but it makes the most of a space that goes unused in many homes.

The property, located at the end of a sweeping driveway, has highly efficient double glazing and oil-fired central heating and is bordered by mature hedging and planting. There’s also a detached double garage to sweeten the deal.
