Abstract
We present details of the harmonic space construction of a quaternionic extension of the four-dimensional Taub-NUT metric. As the main merit of the harmonic space approach, the metric is obtained in an explicit form following a generic set of rules. It exhibits isometry group and depends on two parameters, Taub-NUT `mass' and the cosmological constant. We consider several limiting cases of interest which correspond to special choices of the involved parameters.
