Dating back to 1904, "Red Dyke" is an impressive B1 listed Arts & Crafts Home which occupies a wonderful position on the edge of Ballymena, in the townland of Galgorm.
"Red Dyke" is approached via a sweeping driveway, with parking for numerous cars. This stunning family home has been well cared for over the years whilst sympathetically retaining its original features such as original panelling, open fireplaces and enjoys the volume of room sizes we would expect of a property of this era.
Internally there is an elegant drawing room with ornate inglenook style natural brick fireplace with an informal dining area in feature bay, formal dining room with panelled walls as well as a versatile living room, ideal for relaxing, also benefiting from an open fire. Generously sized, well designed, open plan kitchen / breakfast room with Aga.
On the first floor is a fabulous principal bedroom, five further bedrooms, and a family bathroom. On the second floor there is the opportunity to convert the billiard room and five store rooms to further bedroom accommodation (subject to planning approval) if required.
Outside, the stunning ornate gardens are immaculate and are well suited to families with vast lawns. A delightful patio terrace enjoys a pleasant seating area to enjoy dining al fresco during the summer months.
With so many local attractions including Galgorm Resort & Spa, Lissanoure Castle Estate, Cushendun Village only to name a few and not forgetting Slemish Mountain and commuting to Belfast and beyond making this an excellent home so viewing is highly recommended.
