Tower Cottage is located approximately one mile north west of Port Erin village in an elevated position on Tower Road, which if followed, leads to the famous landmark of Milners Tower. The property itself is a picture postcard stone cottage that has been carefully restored and extended by the current owners to provide an extensive family home providing the most breathtaking views down to Port Erin below from numerous vantage points.
This double fronted property is accessed by a period entrance door with Reception Rooms either side of the entrance, one of which is a Family Lounge with fire place, the other currently used as a Study, both of which provide stunning aspects. Accessible from one of the Reception Rooms is a generous and well-equipped Kitchen that has been opened up and extended providing a delightful Dining Conservatory. The Kitchen benefits from a large oil fired range oven that also provides the heating and hot water for the cottage, as well as expansive work surface space and premium appliances throughout. Double doors off the Kitchen lead to a functional Utility Room. An expansive Conservatory is the heartbeat of the property and a social space for the family to enjoy together, whilst also providing access to the front garden and patio with outside seating.
On the first floor are three Double Bedrooms, each of which have differing coastal views with the option of creating a fourth. The Master benefits from a spacious Dressing Room comprising excellent built-in storage and an En Suite Shower Room with walk in shower, wash basin and WC. This space has been carefully designed to allow with minimal work, a fourth bedroom can be created with the addition of a partition wall. Completing the first floor is an in-keeping Family Bathroom with bath, basin and WC. A permanent stair case leads to a large Attic Room with excellent storage that the current owners used as an occasional Bedroom for guests.
Outside is a gardeners delight, with manicured grounds to the front, side and rear of the property. A patio area provides for a relaxed and tranquil seating area, with purpose built decked steps leading to various decks designed to make the most of the delightful views, with the rear garden area incorporating a lawned area with mature fruit trees. An outside Store houses the oil tank, and a single garage with fob operated front and rear doors provides convenient off road parking. Behind the garage is a storage shed, whilst for families with more than one car, there is sufficient space if the shed is removed to park two vehicles nose to tail.
