2 bed detached house for sale

Ballaquayle Lodge, Lower Dukes Road, Douglas, Isle Of Man IM2

Ballaquayle Lodge, located on Lower Dukes Road in Douglas, is a charming detached two bedroom property offering a rare opportunity in a prime central location. Requiring modernisation throughout, the property presents excellent potential for a purchaser to update and create a lovely home while benefiting from features seldom found so close to the centre of Douglas.

A particularly unique feature of this property is the private driveway which leads to a forecourt providing access to three garages, an exceptional advantage for a central Douglas property and ideal for those requiring extensive parking, storage or workshop space.

The accommodation begins with a welcoming entrance porch which opens into the hallway, where stairs lead to the first floor and doors provide access to the principal ground floor rooms. The kitchen offers a range of wall and base units and also houses the oil fired boiler. The living room spans the full width of the property, creating a bright and spacious reception area with sliding glazed doors opening onto the rear garden.

Off the living room there is a useful additional room which could serve as a hobbies room, study or storage space. A conservatory is also accessed from this area and provides further access to the rear garden, creating an enjoyable connection between the indoor living space and the outside.

To the first floor there are two double bedrooms along with a generously sized family bathroom fitted with a bath and a separate shower cubicle.

Externally the property enjoys a pleasant garden area which is a wonderful feature for such a central location, with lawned space and useful outbuildings. The standout feature remains the private driveway and forecourt leading to the three garages, offering excellent parking and storage facilities. One of the garages has been measured and is shown on the floor plan.
