Gwenville, 10 Laurelbank , Off Windmill Hill Comber , BT23

Additional Information

Built during the reign of George V but obviously designed with the simple clean lines and elegant style associated with the previous Edwardian era, this Gentleman’s detached residence offers an imposing external elevation which has, over time, been enhanced by a number of visually striking additions and features. 

Approached through remote electric gates to an appealing shrub and hedge lined private drive, just off Windmill Hill, the property enjoys a generous mature site of approximately 0.6 acres affording seclusion and privacy - unusual for a town centre location.

Comber's attractive town square with its coffee culture, Georgian House Restaurant, artisan baker and Indie Fude Deli etc. are all within walking distance, yet the atmosphere of this home is one of semi-rural tranquillity. The established grounds with their specimen plants, mirror the grandeur of the property itself, offering abundant space for entertaining, barbecues and other family pursuits. The spacious parking areas, double garage with workshop and magnificent English Heritage oak framed 3 bay car port accommodates not just space for cars but storage for boats and other leisure craft and will facilitate hobbies and other interests. 

The property itself exudes an air of relaxed sophistication throughout with a beautifully proportioned layout offering a wealth of reception accommodation and delightful period features. Properties of this quality are regrettably scarce in Comber and this is a rare opportunity to acquire this unique well maintained period home, as only the third lucky resident in its illustrious past.

The joy of being the next custodian of this landmark home and its historical location will be surpassed only by the pleasure and comfortable lifestyle it will afford.
