Tucked away at the top of a quiet cul-de-sac in the heart of Laxey, Rycroft House is a striking contemporary retreat where thoughtful architecture and coastal calm come together effortlessly. Newly built and beautifully finished, this detached home offers a sense of space, light and quiet luxury throughout.

At its heart lies a breathtaking double-height lounge, where vaulted ceilings and a statement fireplace create a dramatic yet inviting space to unwind. Expansive glazing draws in natural light, enhancing the sense of openness and connection to the surrounding landscape.

The open-plan kitchen and dining area has been crafted to an exceptional standard, featuring bespoke Smallbone cabinetry, premium Miele appliances, and a stunning Parota wood kitchen island. Designed for both sociable gatherings and relaxed mornings, it's a space that balances elegance with functionality.

Upstairs, a bright mezzanine level offers a versatile retreat ideal for reading, working remotely, or simply taking a quiet moment above it all.

Three generously proportioned bedrooms provide comfort and privacy, including a beautifully appointed master suite complete with its own en-suite. Underfloor heating runs throughout the home, ensuring warmth and comfort in every season.

Outside, landscaped gardens wrap around the property, with a sun-trap patio to the rear perfect for al fresco dining or soaking up long, peaceful afternoons. The front garden and private setting further enhance the sense of seclusion, while parking for up to three cars adds convenience.

Pet-friendly and perfectly positioned, Rycroft House is just a short stroll from Laxey village, its charming cafés, and the beach. Whether you're seeking a restorative escape or a stylish base to explore the island, this is modern coastal living at its finest.

Tilt, - Tuesday at 12:00am "A beautiful property"

A beautiful property, elegantly designed and finished to a very high standard. The glass front fills the kitchen, living area and mezzanine with light but despite the open plan areas the house is remarkably quiet.It is worth noting that the property is opposite a camp site and there are no blinds or curtains for the glass front of the house so it might leave you feeling a little exposed. The roads (and driveway) to the property are narrow, winding and steep in parts so access may be difficult for larger, heavier vehicles (e.g. a fully loaded transit).The area is beautiful with lots of opportunities for scenic walks and nature spotting, and the locals all seem very friendly.Island Escapes were also exceedingly helpful when we discovered that a disabled member of our party had left some of their mobility aids at home, and managed to source and supply suitable items the same day I enquired about them.

Reply from Island Escapes

Mrs Wilde, - August 5 "A beautiful"

A beautiful, stylish modern house with all the comforts of home - we loved it! The location was great for us - only a short stroll to the beach or the surrounding countryside.

Sullivan, - July 17 "Stayed at Rycroft House whilst visiting family on the island"

Stayed at Rycroft House whilst visiting family on the island. Beautiful modern property, which was very well equipped, with comfortable beds and lovely homely touches. Right next to a waterfall and trails to walk our dog, and an easy stroll to the beach. We all loved it and wished we lived here!
