About Sandown
Sandown is a quiet residential neighbourhood on Belfast's eastern edge. Crime here runs well below the Northern Ireland average and keeps dropping year on year. The air quality is excellent too.
Getting around by car is straightforward thanks to good road links via the Outer Ring Road, which gets you to the city centre easily. Public transport and cycling infrastructure are limited though, so you'll want a car if that's how you prefer to travel.
Day-to-day shops and services within the neighbourhood itself are modest, but you'll find what you need in nearby areas like Braniel. For schools, Orangefield Primary and Braniel Primary are close by, along with Grosvenor Grammar and Bloomfield Collegiate.
Living costs are slightly above average, mainly because of council tax. Transport costs are lower than you'd typically pay elsewhere though, which helps balance things out.
