A Distinguished Period Residence on the Edge of Ramsey – No Onward Chain
This extended period property, set on the outskirts of the town of Ramsey, offers an exceptional blend of charm, elegance, and modern convenience. Rich with character and boasting numerous period features, the property presents an opportunity to acquire a unique family home in a most picturesque setting.
During their ownership, the current owners have carried out extensive repairs and renovations, offering additional reassurance as to the condition and upkeep of the property.
From the moment you approach via the sweeping gravelled driveway—offering parking for multiple vehicles—you are immediately struck by the commanding central chimneys, a notable feature also found in other prominent homes in Ramsey such as Laurel House. The property’s slate roof, large sash windows, and elegant cornicing evoke a refined Regency aesthetic, consistent with the era in which it was built.
The entrance porch, with its tessellated tiled floor, opens into a grand hallway adorned with intricate archways, moulded architraves, and a sweeping staircase—a true nod to its historical roots. To the left, a fine dining room features decorative detailing and a recessed arch, while the adjoining living room mirrors this style with equally impressive proportions and a traditional fireplace.
Beyond lies the family room, with a charming back-to-back fireplace shared with the living room, leading naturally into the sitting room, conservatory, and extended kitchen—forming a flowing and sociable open-plan space ideal for modern family life. The kitchen, styled in a classic country design, is arranged in an L-shaped format and benefits from access to the patio, a downstairs shower room, and a utility lean-to complete with a pantry and additional storage.
Upstairs, the fifth bedroom is situated directly ahead at the top of the staircase and is currently used as a study. A stylish, newly installed contemporary bathroom lies to the right, while further along the landing are three generously sized double bedrooms. The principal bedroom—part of the two-storey extension—enjoys an element of separation from the other bedrooms, located beyond a further bathroom and a separate WC.
The outside space is no less impressive. Clearly a labour of love, the mature and well-established gardens wrap around two sides of the house, creating a serene and sheltered haven. Beautifully maintained lawns are interspersed with flowerbeds, mature trees, and flourishing borders of roses, shrubs, and herbaceous perennials. A stone-paved terrace with a lean-to greenhouse provides the perfect setting for outdoor relaxation, while an outdoor pizza oven and seating area at the end of the garden offer a delightful space for entertaining.
A second access point via a quiet private lane leads to a further parking area and garage. This truly charming home, which has been thoughtfully enhanced by its current owners—most notably with a two-storey extension and contemporary upgrades—is now offered with no onward chain.
