Features and description
- Freehold
Originally built over 170 years ago in 1849, Ravenscliffe was one of the ten great original ‘Mansion Houses’ in Douglas during the Victorian era. Approached from Head Road, Ravenscliffe occupies an elevated cliff-top position enjoying a magnificent panoramic coastal vista overlooking Douglas Bay, the harbour entrance and the Tower of Refuge.
Encompassed by high stone turret walls, the property is exceptionally private and approached via a set of wrought-iron electric gates to a sweeping macadam driveway. A turning circle and parking area circulates around an ornate water feature. Above is a south facing outdoor heated swimming pool with surrounding pavior area, outdoor entertaining area and lawned garden with pergola and decking. There is garaging for up to five vehicles with a Pod-Point electric vehicle charging point.
This impressive home retains many of its original period features to include imposing high ceilings, grand ornate triple tier cornices and matching ceiling roses, parquet wood flooring, marble fireplaces and deep set skirting boards. The principal reception rooms all face towards the sea with breath-taking coastal views across the entire bay, the Manx hillside behind and across to the Lake District mountains beyond. The former servants quarters, now known as ‘Ravenscliffe Lodge’ remains fully accessible from the main house but are self-contained with a separate access.
The property is a registered building having been identified as having special architectural or historical interest by the Isle of Man Government.
