Nearest match in each category, from a fixed list of Isle of Man amenities — not every pub, café or shop on the island, so treat this as a useful sample, not a complete picture. Distances are straight-line ("as the crow flies"), multiplied by 1.3 to approximate real road-network distance — this is an estimate, not turn-by-turn routing, and actual walking/driving routes may differ. Times assume constant average speeds appropriate to the Isle of Man's roads and 25/35mph limits: walking 4.5 km/h, cycling 14 km/h, driving 30 km/h — not open-road speeds, and they don't account for traffic, parking or terrain.
Masts nearby
- Mobile phone mastUnnamed on the map0.95 miles away
Read this before drawing a conclusion. These are masts mapped by OpenStreetMap contributors — 38 communication structures for the whole island, 29 of them tagged as carrying a mobile network. The operators run considerably more sites than that, so a mast not shown here is not evidence there isn't one. There is no official Isle of Man mast register to check against: Ofcom's Sitefinder never covered the island and the Communications Commission publishes no list. Nothing in this data says which generation a mast carries, so none of it can tell you whether a site is 5G.
What the numbers on this listing say
- Leasehold. Ask for the unexpired term, the ground rent and the service charge before you offer — a short lease is a valuation problem and a lending problem, and neither shows up in the asking price. Tenure is as declared by the agent; have your advocate confirm it against the register.
Assembled from this site's own record of the listing and the Isle of Man Government sold-price register. It deliberately makes no recommendation and no valuation — it reports what is measurable and leaves the judgement to you.
What this purchase costs beyond the asking price
Duty is charged in slices, so each rate applies only to the part of the price inside its band. Three categories exist: owner-occupier (nothing on the first £230,000, 1% to £500,000, 2% above) — £100 here; resident but not owner-occupier, a second home or a let (2%, 2.5% above £3m) — £4,799; and non-resident (4%, 4.5% above £3m) — £9,598. Which one you fall into is a question about you, not about the property, and the Registry decides it. Scale set by the Land, Deeds and Probate Registries (Fees and Duties) Order 2023, in force 1 May 2023 — check the Central Registry's own calculator or ask your advocate for the figure that actually applies. This site is not a tax adviser and takes no fee from anyone named on this page.
What it would cost each month
The interest rate above is a placeholder you should replace with a real quote — this site holds no lender rates, is paid nothing by any lender, and is not advice. Land Registry duty is calculated from the published band scale; everything else follows from the numbers you type.
Getting connected
Four providers sell residential broadband on the island: Manx Telecom, Sure, Wi-Manx, BlueWave Communications. Manx Telecom owns and operates the fixed network the others largely resell, so what is physically available at an address is usually a Manx Telecom question whoever ends up billing you.
This site has no per-address availability feed and makes no claim about the speed, technology or price at this property — a "fibre available here" badge that turned out to be wrong on completion day would be worse than no badge at all. Check with a provider against the actual address before you rely on it. No provider pays this site anything, and these are ordinary links, not referrals.
A flat owner owns the inside of the flat — not the roof above it, the ground beside it, or the right to build on either. Adding a bedroom, converting the loft or putting up an outbuilding are not options here whatever they might be worth, so they are not costed. Internal work — reconfiguring, refitting a kitchen or bathroom, replacing windows where the lease and the building allow — is a different question, and one this site has no data to price.
Building work on this property
Same estimate model this site uses on its planning pages (UK cost ranges with the Isle of Man's 18% uplift) — a rough starting point, not a quote. Always get quotes from an Isle of Man builder before budgeting.

Matched by house name/street and parish against the Isle of Man Land Registry's transaction register — not a unique-ID lookup, so a shared house name could span more than one property. The "2026 prices" column carries each price forward at the island-wide repeat-sales index — it is what that sum of money would be at today's market level, not a valuation of this property, and it takes no account of the condition it was in then or any work done since.
