Douglas Road, Kirk Michael, IM6

Nestled in the stunning scenic surroundings just south of Kirk Michael, this charming turn of the last century detached house, presents a unique opportunity for cash buyers seeking a renovation project. Set on an elevated plot, the property boasts breathtaking sea views and extensive mature grounds (former raspberry farm), perfect for those looking to create their own private retreat or agricultural enterprise.

Prime Location: Elevated but also sheltered position offering stunning  views of the sea and surrounding countryside and hills. It offers a peaceful rural lifestyle while being just a short distance from local amenities, schools, and both beautiful coastal and hill walks. The expansive grounds provide ample space for outdoor activities, gardening, growing, equestrian, agriculture or simply enjoying the tranquility and panoramic views.

Spacious Grounds: The plot features adaptable mature land to curate as a sanctuary, or, with flexible potential, a range of development directions (subject to normal permissions where applicable).

The property has banks of two rivers, to the west and north and a stream running through the edge of the larger field area to the north.

In addition to the main drive entrance, the yard to the south and larger field to the north each have their own gated access to the road.
