Oil Fired Central Heating Generous Mature Site Land Registry Maps Available From Agent Part Of The Land Zoned For Housing Under Policy no BSH09 In The Northern Area Plan 2016 An increasingly rare opportunity to acquire a traditional three bedroom residence occupying a generous mature site together with substantial adjoining land, conveniently positioned on the edge of Bushmills.
The property offers well-proportioned accommodation comprising a spacious lounge, separate dining room, kitchen, bathroom and sun porch on the ground floor, with three bedrooms and a shower room at first-floor level.
Externally, the property is approached by a stoned driveway and is surrounded by established gardens with mature trees, shrubbery and lawns, creating a particularly private setting.
Of particular interest is the additional land lying to the side and rear of the dwelling, part of which falls within the BSH 09 housing zoning in the Northern Area Plan 2016, adding an important potential development dimension to the property.
The BSH 09 zoning, identified as “Rear of Bush Crescent”, extends to approximately 0.16 hectares and specifies a residential density of 15–25 dwellings per hectare, a maximum height of two storeys, with access required from Bush Gardens.
Overall, this is an appealing proposition for those seeking a character home with extensive grounds, while the housing zoning will also be of particular interest to developers, builders and purchasers considering the longer-term development potential of the site, subject to all necessary planning and statutory approvals.
