Aesthetic

Utilising the existing property footprint, this scheme proposes a substantial redesign and redevelopment of the main residence to create a truly 21st century home.

Taking full advantage of its secluded headland location, the property is orientated to exploit the spectacular views surrounding it. By the same token, this property incorporates large expanses of glass to maximise its outlook and bring the outside in. The property makes use the natural fall of the site; as a result, the spa complex is effectively underground.

Whilst uncompromisingly contemporary in its form, the property utlises local materials such as Manx stone and areas of grass roof to reflect its rural location.

Accommodation

The main residence offers extensive luxurious, contemporary living and entertaining space. These primarily comprise a breathtaking entrance hall incorporating a glass wine cellar; super room with spectacular 180 sea views; vast pro-chef kitchen with walk-in pantry; dining and breakfast areas; state-of-the-art sunken media/cinema room; day lounge; study/office; games room; master bedroom suite with private terrace including his-and-hers dressing rooms; a further five double bedrooms and en suites with terraces and/or sea views, and garaging for six cars.

The spa complex is linked directly to the main house by a walkway and incorporates a sauna, steam room, plunge pool, treatment room, massage room, gymnasium, relaxation area and changing rooms. The spa complex extends externally to include hot tubs, water terraces, seating and entertainment areas, outdoor kitchen/bar and unique outdoor fireplace. As part of the current planning application there are two staff accommodation blocks proposed in excess of 90msq each. These are separate from the main house and form part of the equestrian facilities and comprise one two-bed cottage and one three-bed cottage.

Grounds

The property sits within a 26.4 acre site comprising a gated entrance, sweeping driveway, landscaped gardens, a glen and lake, fields and paddocks.

The proposal (subject to planning approval) includes development of extensive equestrian facilities. These principally comprise a 30 x 60m internal riding arena including viewing galleries; 20 stables including birthing stables; associated stores, tack rooms and wash down areas; staff rooms including changing facilities and associated office space.

All internal areas are calculated from the Effective Floor Area (EFA) of each property.*
