Key Features & Description
Description
Simon Brien is delighted to offer this stunning penthouse apartment to the open market. Positioned on the 2nd floor of this magnificent Georgian building in Donaghadee´s town centre, an era of architecture celebrated of its quality, proportions, and symmetry.
Originally built in the second half of the 18th Century, circa 1770, for a wealthy muslin trade merchant who utilised the picturesque and famous harbour. In 2017 Michael Dunlop of Urban Property Solutions Ltd bought the building and set about its extensive restoration using the best, local craftsmen, and materials. The building now stands proudly as a standard bearer for town centre restoration and regeneration.
The Townscape Heritage Initiative Project were also involved in the re-development helping secure the longevity of the original building for years to come. This prominent building now hosts five luxuriously appointed apartments, and four new mews style cottages to the rear, along with manicured communal gardens, and private parking for its residents. The Merchant House is undoubtedly a distinctive building which has breathed life back into the town, reviving the streetscape and town´s aesthetics.
The apartment comprises of a welcoming reception hall, bright and airy open plan living/ dining/ kitchen space with feature dark green units, brass effect hardware, integrated appliances, and stunning views over the town to the harbour, lighthouse, and the Irish Sea. Further, the principal bedroom is vast and offers bespoke, full width, robes, and access to the substantial and luxuriously appointed ensuite facility, again with views over the town to the harbour, lighthouse, and the Irish Sea.
In all, this a beautiful property with many appealing features and can only be appreciated upon internal inspection.
