Sunny Crest, Honna Road, Port Erin – A Charming Period Manx Stone Cottage with Delightful Rural Views
Nestled on the peaceful outskirts of Port Erin, Sunny Crest is a beautifully presented period Manx stone end-terrace home offering a wonderful blend of character, charm and countryside living. Located on the sought-after Honna Road, this delightful three-bedroom property enjoys enviable rural views to both the front and rear, while remaining just a short drive from the heart of Port Erin with its shops, cafés, beach, and transport links.
The current vendor has undertaken a substantial programme of refurbishment both inside and out, ensuring the property is ready to move into and enjoy. Externally, the property has been fully re-pointed, enhancing its original Manx stone façade, while the garden has been attractively landscaped to create inviting, low-maintenance outdoor spaces. Additionally, brand new uPVC double glazing has been installed throughout the house – a fantastic upgrade that not only improves energy efficiency but also enhances comfort and peace and quiet inside the home.
Internally, Sunny Crest has been sympathetically modernised while retaining its period charm. The welcoming entrance hallway features stairs leading to the first floor and provides access to the main living spaces. To the left, the inviting living room boasts a bright and airy atmosphere with large windows allowing natural light to flood in. A charming feature log burner creates a cosy focal point for the room – perfect for relaxing evenings.
Adjacent to the hallway, the separate dining room offers an ideal space for entertaining family and friends. From here, you enter the rear-facing kitchen, which has been newly fitted with a tasteful selection of modern units and integrated appliances. A large window above the sink provides lovely views over the rear garden and surrounding countryside. The kitchen also benefits from direct access to the side garden via an external door, and opens into a useful utility room, providing additional storage and workspace.
Throughout the home, fresh neutral décor and new carpets give a clean, contemporary feel, and some electrical wiring has also been replaced, contributing to the property’s excellent condition.
On the first floor, you’ll find two generously sized double bedrooms, both enjoying picturesque rural views. A well-appointed family bathroom serves this level, complete with modern fittings.
The second floor features a spacious third double bedroom with a charming vaulted ceiling, adding to the character and sense of space. This room also benefits from elevated views over the surrounding landscape, making it a peaceful retreat.
Externally, Sunny Crest continues to impress. The side garden overlooks open fields, providing a tranquil setting for outdoor enjoyment. A paved, west-facing seating area catches the afternoon and evening sun, while a small lawned section offers a touch of greenery. A substantial stone-built storage shed provides excellent additional storage or workshop potential. To the rear, there is a small patio area just off the kitchen – ideal for morning coffee – and to the front, the garden is attractively planted with mature shrubs and flowering plants, enhancing the kerb appeal of this lovely home.
Sunny Crest is a rare opportunity to acquire a beautifully refurbished character property in a peaceful rural setting, yet within easy reach of all that Port Erin has to offer.
