Contemporary Country Manor House Northern Ireland


This is a replacement dwelling which was an old countryside manor farmhouse on its own holding and surrounding lands. The replacement dwelling was given a modern take on a large traditional countryside manor house with low energy spec with a modern interior and exterior.
It has a grand statement elevation of two 2-story stone projections featuring an overhanging porch roof in between. The stone wraps round to an additional side door which is the main everyday entrance, which also features a covered porch roof. This side elevation also has two gable returns to mimic a double frontage to the dwelling. The stone falls have been finished with feature stone heads and sills and also has some feature gothic windows.
The floor plan consists of a fully front to back kitchen, dining, living room spaces. The kitchen to rear, with large island and breakfast bar and includes a glazed corner with double doors, has vast landscape views. The central dining area with feature ceiling has three gothic windows, complete with stone surrounds, both inside and out. To the front is the living area, features a bifold door to a patio space and modern wood-burning stove. On leaving the dining space, it leads out to the main entrance hall atrium, which is open the full 3-storey height to roof level, complete with glass roof light, which floods the entrance hall with light. This atrium also serves the 1st floor landing above.

To the other side there is a formal dining area, a snug room both off the main grand entrance hall with marble curving stairs. The main hall also returns back to the side entrance hall, which then leads on to the utility room, bathroom and laundry boot room to the rear.
Upstairs hosts all the bedrooms and features an "evening lounge" to the rear of the house. The evening lounge boasts a large glazed corner with half apex window & double doors on the gable, which lead out to the balcony area, which avails of a beautiful landscape valley with a huge 180-degree views. The wrap around balcony can also be accessed from the huge master
bedroom, with dressing room and en-suite. The master bed also features a huge glass corner window, again to take in the amazing 180degee views of the valley.
