An increasingly rare opportunity to acquire a traditional three bedroom residence occupying a generous mature site together with substantial adjoining land, conveniently positioned on the edge of Bushmills. The property offers well-proportioned accommodation comprising a spacious lounge, separate dining room, kitchen, bathroom and sun porch on the ground floor, with three bedrooms and a shower room at first-floor level. Externally, the property is approached by a stoned driveway and is surrounded by established gardens with mature trees, shrubbery and lawns, creating a particularly private setting. Of particular interest is the additional land lying to the side and rear of the dwelling, part of which falls within the BSH 09 housing zoning in the Northern Area Plan 2016, adding an important potential development dimension to the property. The BSH 09 zoning, identified as Rear of Bush Crescent, extends to approximately 0.16 hectares and specifies a residential density of 1525 dwellings per hectare, a maximum height of two storeys, with access required from Bush Gardens. Overall, this is an appealing proposition for those seeking a character home with extensive grounds, while the housing zoning will also be of particular interest to developers, builders and purchasers considering the longer-term development potential of the site, subject to all necessary planning and statutory approvals.

Property Surveying
Property Surveying Services We’re proud to work alongside a trusted network of independent local RICS Chartered Surveyors, providing our clients with expert advice and complete peace of mind.
Whether you’re buying, selling, or maintaining your property, we can arrange a quote for any level of RICS Home Survey — helping you make confident, informed decisions at every stage.
Why Choose an RICS Home Survey? Because forewarned is forearmed. Choosing the right survey ensures you’re aware of any potential issues before making one of life’s biggest financial commitments. An RICS qualified surveyor provides an impartial, professional assessment of your property’s condition and highlights any areas of concern or risk. There are three levels of RICS Home Survey, each tailored to different property types and client needs. All are reliable, cost effective and backed by the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS) — the industry’s most trusted authority.
Buying a Home Remember, your mortgage valuation is not a property survey — it simply confirms to your lender that the property is suitable security for your loan. An RICS Home Survey, however, provides a detailed assessment of the property’s actual condition, giving you the vital information you need for price negotiations and to avoid costly surprises after moving in. For even more insight, the RICS Home Buyer Report (Survey Level 2) includes a market valuation as standard for your personal reference.
Selling a Home An RICS survey can also work to your advantage when selling. By identifying potential issues early, you can address them proactively, helping to prevent delays or last minute price reductions during the sales process.
Staying in Your Home Even if you’re not moving, commissioning a survey of your home’s current condition can be a smart move. It highlights defects and maintenance needs before they escalate, helping you manage repairs more effectively and protect the long term value of your property.
