69 Tullynakill Road

Set on an elevated and exceptionally private site along one of County Down's most coveted rural roads, 69 Tullynakill Road is a truly remarkable residence commanding some of the most breathtaking and far-reaching views over Strangford Lough and the Ards Peninsula.

Individually designed to reflect a distinctive Hamptons-inspired aesthetic, the property masterfully blends contemporary elegance with relaxed coastal charm. The principal rooms have been carefully orientated to capture the ever-changing panorama of water, islands, hills and sky a backdrop that simply never grows old.

At the heart of the home is a showpiece Shaker kitchen, fitted with a premium Everhot 900 range, quartz worktops, an integrated dishwasher, a ceramic Belfast sink and a central island. Sliding doors open directly onto the front terrace and gardens, with Strangford Lough stretching out beyond the mature grounds a setting tailor-made for entertaining.

The reception spaces are equally impressive. A grand reception and dining hall runs from front to back, anchored by a Fondis Ulys 900 wood-burning double stove and finished with solid oak flooring throughout. The adjoining drawing room is simply stunning, a generous bay window frames the Lough views to perfection, while a second Fondis stove adds warmth and character, creating a space that is both architecturally striking and wonderfully comfortable.

The accommodation extends to five generous bedrooms. The principal suite is a true retreat, enjoying feature windows that take in the breathtaking Lough views, a walk-in wardrobe with extensive storage, and a beautifully appointed ensuite with double vanity, power shower and chrome towel rail. Two further bedrooms also benefit from private ensuite facilities, with all rooms offering the space and quality expected at this level.

A particularly exciting feature of the property is 69a Tullynakill Road, a detached, self-contained cottage within the grounds. Recently generating a reliable rental income, the cottage offers outstanding potential as an Airbnb, a guest annexe, or a private home office suite. Complete with a double-height living room, minstrel gallery landing, kitchen, bathroom and two bedrooms, it functions entirely independently from the main house.

Externally, the property sits within approximately 5 acres of beautifully maintained grounds, comprising formal lawns, a charming side orchard, fenced and watered paddocks, a sheltered gravelled courtyard and a range of outbuildings including two loose boxes, a timber tack room and a three-bay storage shed. A private tarmac driveway with an electric car charger leads to generous parking, all within a setting of complete seclusion and tranquillity.

The property is situated just outside Killinchy, a highly regarded village on the shores of Strangford Lough, offering an exceptional balance of rural peace and everyday convenience. The award-winning Balloo House and the beloved Daft Eddy's restaurant are both within easy reach, as are local shops, cafes and excellent schools. The historic town of Comber is only a short drive away, while Belfast city centre is accessible in under 30 minutes, making this a genuinely practical choice for commuters seeking something extraordinary to come home to.

Strangford Lough itself is designated as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, offering world-class sailing, water sports and scenic walking trails right on the doorstep.

For those seeking space, seclusion, income potential and the very finest of County Down living, 69 Tullynakill Road is simply without equal.
