The original house, constructed in 1853, served as the Manor house of a large farming estate. In 1940, it underwent significant remodeling and extended, which included replacing the original pitched roof with a flat roof and adding additional stories.
Three-story wings were also constructed on both sides of the house. Originally a single-family residence, the property transitioned into a gentleman’s country residence until 1973 when it was converted into apartments.
Apartment three, formerly the caretaker’s residence, remained in this capacity until 2012. Situated at the rear of the house on the ground floor, it boasts a private entrance and is separate from the other six apartments.
Situated on the fringes of Douglas, this tranquil private development offers a haven of relaxation, complete with convenient parking facilities and beautifully landscaped communal gardens.
Beyond the private entrance lies a spacious open-plan living and dining area, flooded with natural light and offering serene garden views, perfect for unwinding after a long day.
The property comprises two inviting double bedrooms, each exuding brightness and warmth, providing ample space for rest and relaxation. Accompanying these comfortable retreats is a generously sized family bathroom, promising luxury and convenience for residents.
Ideal for those seeking both privacy and community, this development combines the best of both worlds, with its secluded setting and shared amenities fostering a sense of belonging and peace. Whether enjoying a quiet evening in the comfort of your home or socializing amidst the lush communal gardens, this residence offers a truly idyllic lifestyle on the outskirts of the vibrant town of Douglas.
