6 bed detached house for sale

Ballacree, Lezayre, Churchtown IM7

Deanwood's are thrilled to bring to the market Ballacree. This 6-bedroom gentleman’s residence is a first rate example of Victorian spender and foresight. Centrally set in an elevated situation within 5 acres.

Clearly Victorian, Ballacree appears an amalgamation of more formal Regency and later more elaborate Italianate vernacular style, captioning memories of ‘The Tour’. Ballacree is a fine example of this Manx representation, a vibrant reaction to an earlier more formal Regency style. Ballacree has a fine façade with subtitles touches of detail, such the castellated chimneys, dentile detailing, attractive corbels and quoins; with two delightfully proportioned bay windows.

Arriving at the house, you enter at the marble columned portico, you are greeted in a striking Entrance Hall, with detailing that highlights the properties history, which lately included being home to Lord Ailsa.

In order to retain this past, and further enhance the property, the vendor has over the years thoughtfully improved the property; to suit modern living. The level of detail has seen the property featured in the fox Search light production of the historical fiction film 'Belle'.

Ideal family home with 4 well-proportioned splendidly decorated reception rooms, 6 bathrooms and 6 bedrooms. The master encompasses a large standout ensuite bathroom with fantastic views towards the sea and over rolling countryside. Door to the attic space with a further two double bedrooms with ensuite.

Externally, aesthetically, there is much to excite. A long sweeping driveway circles the front lawns providing an in and out access to the parking area and garage. To the rear the garden slopes up towards woodland behind and provides an orchard, sun terrace, paddock grazing, green house and tree house. Located of the family room there is a patio ideal for entertaining during the summer months. The grounds are rich with mature trees and shrubs
