Description
This charming three-bedroom detached bungalow occupies a delightful semi-rural setting just a few minutes` drive from Ballycastle town, enjoying sea views and a peaceful countryside feel while remaining close to all local amenities.
The accommodation is well laid out and welcoming, centred around a hallway that leads to a comfortable living room featuring a wood-burning stove, a separate dining room, and a bright conservatory ideal for relaxing or entertaining. A homely kitchen with adjoining utility area provides practical everyday space, while three bedrooms and a shower room complete the internal layout.
Externally, the property is approached via a sweeping driveway and benefits from an attached garage along with ample additional parking. The front and rear gardens are laid mainly in lawn and are complemented by mature shrubs and trees, with a paved area offering an ideal spot for outdoor dining and entertaining.
Set within the vibrant coastal town of Ballycastle, The Pink Bungalow offers an exceptional lifestyle opportunity in one of Northern Ireland`s most sought-after locations. The property is conveniently positioned close to the Marine Hotel, the Salthouse Hotel, and a wide range of restaurants, bars, cafés, bakeries, and traditional ice-cream parlours, perfectly blending coastal charm with everyday convenience.
Just minutes away lies Ballycastle`s renowned Blue Flag beach and promenade, where panoramic views extend towards Fair Head, creating a breathtaking backdrop that evolves beautifully with the seasons. The area is also home to some of Northern Ireland`s most iconic attractions, including the Giant`s Causeway, Carrick-a-Rede Rope Bridge, and the atmospheric Dark Hedges.
The bungalow enjoys an idyllic position on the edge of Ballycastle Forest, located at the foot of the most northerly of the Nine Glens of Antrim, offering scenic walks and outdoor recreation quite literally on the doorstep. Red squirrels are often seen in the area, and have been known to visit the bungalow for playing and feeding. The nearby marina and harbour provide ferry services to Rathlin Island and charter trips to Scotland, further enhancing the area`s unique coastal appeal.
Ballycastle`s strong sense of community is reflected in its lively calendar of events and excellent facilities, including the famous Ould Lammas Fair held annually in August, a tennis club hosting popular summer tournaments, a golf course, and a bowling club.
In addition to its appeal as a permanent residence or holiday home, The Pink Bungalow offers potential as an investment opportunity. Ballycastle`s popularity as a year-round tourist destination, combined with the property`s proximity to the beach, forest walks, and the Causeway Coast`s world-famous attractions, makes it well suited to the short-term and holiday-let market, subject to any necessary consents.
The site itself may also appeal to those seeking a redevelopment or replacement dwelling opportunity. The generous plot, attractive setting, and sea views offer potential for future enhancement or a rebuild, subject to the necessary planning permissions and approvals.
Whether as a family home, coastal retreat, investment property, or a site with future development potential, The Pink Bungalow represents a rare opportunity to enjoy relaxed coastal living in one of Northern Ireland`s most desirable locations.
