About
Thie Ny School is a truly charming period home, beautifully combining a striking stone exterior and an abundance of character with a comprehensive programme of modernisation and high-quality contemporary fixtures and fittings.
Set within a peaceful and picturesque setting in Foxdale, the property is within easy reach of the village's local amenities, including the school and shop, whilst Douglas city centre is also readily accessible by car.
With scenic walks including Kion Slieu and Archallagan Plantations close by, the property offers an appealing blend of countryside living and everyday convenience.
The current owners have undertaken an extensive refurbishment of the property, completed in 2022, creating a home that combines its period character with excellent modern standards.
Works included a full re-wire incorporating cat 6 cabling, installation of underfloor heating to the ground floor, insulation to the roof and walls, together with the installation of a new kitchen and bathrooms.
The result is a beautifully presented home that is both characterful and exceptionally well equipped for modern living.
The welcoming living room retains a wonderful sense of period charm and features a log burner, creating a warm and inviting space for relaxing.
The heart of the home is undoubtedly the superb kitchen diner, where a stylish fitted kitchen is centred around a island with breakfast bar seating.
This sociable space provides an excellent setting for everyday family life and entertaining. A separate utility room and ground-floor cloakroom (WC) add further practicality.
The property provides four bedrooms, offering excellent flexibility for a growing family, guests or home working.
The principal bedroom is particularly appealing, incorporating a dressing area and luxurious en-suite facilities.
The main family bathroom is equally impressive, featuring both a separate bath and shower.
Both bathrooms have been beautifully finished with Ca' Pietra tiles, adding a sophisticated finish and complementing the character of the property.
Externally, a driveway provides valuable off-road parking and access to a garage area, together with a useful workshop/garden store.
The property enjoys a particularly lovely mature garden which stretches across the front of the house, combining areas of lawn with established trees and shrubs and a dedicated hardstanding seating area.
The mature planting creates a wonderful sense of seclusion and privacy, providing an idyllic setting for outdoor relaxation and alfresco entertaining.
Thie Ny School is a rare and beautifully considered period home, offering an exceptional blend of traditional character, sympathetic modernisation and high-quality finishes.
With its handsome stone exterior, four-bedroom accommodation, luxurious Ca' Pietra-appointed bathrooms, superb kitchen diner and mature private gardens, all within easy reach of Foxdale amenities and the surrounding countryside, this is a home with genuine individuality and considerable lifestyle appeal.
