Situated opposite Chapel Bay in one of the Isle of Man’s most scenic locations, this 1930s semi-detached beachside property offers breathtaking panoramic views of the sea, beach, and harbour to the front, with charming countryside views to the rear. This period house, built in 1937, embodies art deco character and provides spacious accommodation across three levels.
Upon entering the property, a gated footpath with steps leads up to the entrance porch, which opens into a spacious entrance hall with a winding staircase. The lounge, featuring a large bay window, offers panoramic sea views and access to a private front terrace, perfect for enjoying the fabulous outlook. Adjacent to the lounge is a dining room with a feature log burner and an arched bay window overlooking the garden. This room also provides access to a snug or office space, leading to a rear porch and garden.
The lower level houses a utility room with space and plumbing for a washing machine, as well as the wall-mounted gas combination boiler. This leads into the open-plan kitchen and dining area, fitted with modern wall and base units, integrated appliances, tiled floors, and double-glazed windows. A double-glazed door opens onto a covered terrace, which leads out to the front garden.
Ascending the staircase from the entrance hall to the first floor, you find three double bedrooms. The master bedroom, located at the front, takes full advantage of the sea views. The second and third bedrooms, situated at the rear, offer views over the neighbouring agricultural fields and towards Langness. The recently modernised family shower room features a large walk-in shower, wash hand basin, and heated towel rail, with a separate WC. The bright and spacious galleried landing enhances the sense of light and space.
Externally, the property boasts delightful front and rear gardens. The front garden includes a large terrace, ideal for enjoying the scenic views. The rear garden features steps up to a large, secluded patio surrounded by mature borders and hedging, a greenhouse, and a sunken patio area with stone walls for total privacy. The detached garage provides private parking.
Rhen Valla is not only a home but a lifestyle opportunity, ideal for anglers, kayakers, and sea swimmers due to its proximity to Chapel Bay. The village of Port St Mary offers a charming array of eateries and independent shops. With no onward chain, gas-fired central heating, and double glazing throughout, Rhen Valla presents a unique chance to own a coastal art deco home in an enviable position in the South of the island. Viewing is highly recommended to truly appreciate the views, light, and space this property has to offer.
