•  Imposing detached period residence 

•  3 reception rooms and 6 bedrooms 

•  2 kitchens and 2 bathrooms 

•  Many original features / Oil fired heating 

•  In need of repair and restoration 

•  Located within town Conservation Area

Occupying a prominent position on Millisle Road within walking distance of the town centre, Shandon is a large imposing period detached villa, located just within the boundary of the town centre Conservation Area. Many of the original period features are still intact, including panel doors, architraves, stair spindles, ceiling cornices and picture rails. Although in need of considerable repair and renovation, this would be a rare and ideal opportunity for someone wishing to rejuvenate a period building and restore it to its former glory.

Sympathetically extended a number of years ago, the present accommodation provides options for a number of potential uses. Ideal as a 6-bedroom family home with 3 reception rooms, 2 kitchens and 2 bathrooms, the right hand wing of the building, with its own side entrance door and staircase, can also be used as a self-contained unit - this could provide independent living for family members, space for running a business from home, or for use as a possible bed and breakfast or self-catering accommodation, (subject to all necessary approvals for change of use).
