About
Minorca Drive has long been a popular choice with both first and second-time buyers, largely due to its convenient location close to Carrickfergus town centre, transport links and the popular promenade seafront.
This attractive red brick home occupies a position within a small cul-de-sac of only ten properties and offers three-bedroom accommodation, including a principal bedroom with ensuite shower room.
Oak double doors from the entrance hall open into the lounge, where a freestanding cast iron gas stove provides an attractive focal point, while to the rear the kitchen is open plan to the dining area and fitted with a range of contemporary handleless units and integrated appliances.
The first floor bathroom is finished with a white suite incorporating a shower attachment and contemporary black framed shower screen, and the property also has double glazed windows and a gas heating system.
The enclosed rear garden has the added advantage of a garden room which could serve a number of purposes, whether as an entertaining area, home office or gym, depending on the purchaser's requirements.
With its popular location, well-presented accommodation and the additional space provided by the garden room.
This is a property we expect to attract strong interest and certainly one not to be missed. Early viewing is strongly recommended.
