Whiteways is a truly special circa 1920 Arts and Crafts residence, discreetly positioned behind mature trees on a generous private site extending to approximately 0.4 acres. Homes of this architectural quality and character rarely come to the market, and the property immediately conveys a sense of individuality, craftsmanship and presence from the moment of arrival.
The house is a fine example of the Arts and Crafts movement, celebrating natural materials, thoughtful proportions and hand-crafted detail. Internally, this is reflected through geometric tiled flooring, traditional joinery, exposed timber beams, wall panelling and carefully retained period features that give the home warmth, depth and authenticity.
The property has been sympathetically renovated by the current owners, blending modern comfort with its original character. Works completed include full rewiring, installation of a new gas central heating boiler, timber and damp treatment and full redecoration throughout, allowing the next owner to move straight in while still enjoying the home’s heritage.
There are three reception rooms, including a principal sitting room with exposed beams and a handcrafted brick fireplace, a second large sitting room also with beams, and a snug that opens directly onto the kitchen-dining space. A downstairs WC adds practicality.
To the rear, the open-plan kitchen, dining and family area is beautifully light-filled, with bespoke cabinetry, granite worktops, central island and expansive glazing overlooking the gardens.
Upstairs offers four bedrooms, two with original built-in storage, plus a stylishly upgraded bathroom with roll-top bath, separate shower and separate WC.
Outside, the grounds are exceptional, featuring mature gardens, pear and apple trees, greenhouse, double garage and extensive driveway parking.
A rare opportunity to acquire a home of genuine architectural character, privacy and distinction in a prime South East Belfast setting.
