About
Attention all developers and project seekers!
Due to a change in the owner’s circumstances, we are delighted to bring to market a truly rare opportunity to acquire a manageable project that comprises a 3,800 square foot partially-constructed new build executive property that commands a coastal location with uninterrupted sea views as well as benefiting from an additional parcel of land that leads directly to the beach.
Castletown offers a unique blend of historical charm and modern convenience. As the Island's ancient capital, it is steeped in history and boasts stunning heritage sites like Castle Rushen.
Excellent local schools include the Island’s only private schools, and easy access to local amenities, all while being surrounded by the natural coastal beauty the Island has to offer.
With its peaceful atmosphere, proximity to Douglas, and the Airport on its doorstep Castletown provides an ideal balance for those seeking a a relaxed lifestyle with the benefits of modern connectivity.
Scarlett Road sits on the edge of Castletown Square, the focal point of the town itself with shops, bars and restaurants all conveniently located, whilst being within a short stroll of local primary and secondary schools.
All of this, and benefitting from coastal scenic walks on its doorstep.
The property itself offers an opportunity to developers and cash buyers to see to fruition the completion of a substantially constructed-executive property that sits on a generous plot providing a much-sought-after coastal location with enviable stunning scenic views make for an attractive proposition.
The property is watertight, with the frame fully erected, roof completed and windows and external doors installed.
The internal stud work is in place over both floors with a configuration offering four en suite bedrooms.
The plasterboard is yet to be fitted, allowing for the new owner to change the existing configuration to their own personal preference without too much difficulty.
First fix electrics have been fitted, whilst an oil boiler has been installed and fully commissioned prior to the end of 2024 that will feed the underfloor heating system to be installed on the ground floor, with radiators planned to the fitted on the upper level.
Stepping into the the property through a composite front door and into a generous porch and welcoming Hallway that is designed to house a convenient storage cupboard whilst also providing access to the garage.
To the front of the property the layout provides a ground floor en suite bedroom, second lounge/snug, WC and a study offering work from home space.
To the rear is an expansive open-plan family room that stretches across the full 13m width of the property and incorporates two 3m glazed sliding doors allowing access to the back garden.
This room offers space for a generous kitchen and centre island, as well as ample room for a large family-sized dining table and plenty of room remaining for a social seating area.
Located off the family room, a utility room provides side access to the outside of the property.
Beyond is a boiler room that houses the oil-fired boiler, manifold for the underfloor heating system and pressurised water cylinder.
The boiler room leads through to the integral garage which stretches to almost 8m, being much longer than the average garage.
