Description
Built around 1884, 2 Upper Clifton stands as a distinguished example of Bangor´s Victorian architectural legacy. During the mid to late 19th century, Bangor flourished as a fashionable seaside resort, boosted by the arrival of the railway in 1865. Wealthy merchants and professionals from Belfast and beyond began to settle along the coast, and Upper Clifton became one of the most sought-after addresses - admired for its elevated position, sea views, and proximity to the new promenade.
This substantial three-storey, double-fronted residence reflects the elegance and refinement of the era. Behind its handsome façade lies a wealth of original Victorian features: ornate cornice ceilings, picture rails, shutters, original fireplaces, and detailed joinery throughout. Internally, the home offers five generously sized bedrooms and three reception rooms - including a first-floor drawing room designed to maximise natural light. The ground floor provides formal and informal living spaces, a fitted kitchen with family area, a utility room and cloakroom with WC. The first-floor bathroom features a cast iron roll-top bath, while a second-floor shower room adds modern convenience. Externally, the property retains a mature and private setting just minutes from Bangor´s historic seafront and coastal path blending timeless Victorian elegance with modern-day comfort in an exceptional location.
