2 luxury living redefined Welcome to The Devonshire. An award-winning luxury residence within the exclusive Ballanard Woods gated community - just minutes from the heart of the island s capital, Douglas. Set within an acre of private landscaped grounds and providing over 4,200 sq.ft. of living accommodation, this superbly appointed five bedroom, five bathroom home fuses exceptional design and build quality with the highest standards of interior specification and finish. The Devonshire 3

3 the jewel of the Irish Sea One of Europe s most successful economies, the Isle of Man boasts high-tech high value industries, beautiful countryside and a superb quality of life. Situated in the middle of the Irish Sea, equidistant from Great Britain and Ireland, the 33 miles long by 13 miles wide Isle of Man is one of the great gems of the British Isles. Full of contrast and character, the island is perhaps best known for the TT motorcycle races and the world champion cyclist Mark Cavendish, but it s also one of Europe s most successful economies boasting almost 30 years of consecutive growth. The island s economic success is due largely to high-value, high-tech industries, such as online gaming, aerospace, advanced engineering and financial services. However, excellent links to the UK s major transport hubs and favourable rates of corporate taxation have also helped secure its position as a gateway for doing business in Europe and the rest of the world. Thanks to the Gulf Stream, the island enjoys a fairly temperate climate, and its long sandy beaches, sheltered bays, dramatic glens and mountain peaks, make it the ideal place for enjoying the great outdoors. 4 The Devonshire

4 Sport and leisure facilities are plentiful and there s no shortage of activities on offer, from mountain biking, coasteering, and kite surfing to golf, fishing and hill walking. The Isle of Man also enjoys a vibrant cultural and arts scene, featuring everything from plays, opera and classical music recitals, to food and literature festivals. The annual Blues Festival attracts performers from around the globe and the island s theatres and concert halls regularly play host to stars from the worlds of comedy, dance and popular music. Dining out on the Island is a real treat with an array of restaurants offering a diverse choice of international cuisines. As you might expect, seafood and shellfish are particular specialities, with the local Queen Scallops, or Queenies, and lobster being a particular delicacy. The capital city of Douglas is its most populous, and not surprisingly one of the most popular locations to live and work. It attracts homebuyers from both on and off the island, thanks to its excellent transport links, dynamic business centre and vibrant retail and leisure districts. With its thriving economy, low levels of personal taxation and superb quality of life, it s not surprising this progressive, independent self-governing country received one of the highest-ever ratings polled by MORI as a place to live.

5 perfectly positioned Just over a mile from the centre of the island s capital, Douglas, The Devonshire is perfectly positioned for both business and pleasure. The capital s main business, leisure and retail districts are all just minutes away. Transport links are also excellent with the island s ferry terminal just a 5 minute drive away, and the airport only 8 miles to the south in Castletown. There are a number of excellent state secondary and junior schools within a mile, and the island s two independent schools - King William s College and The Buchan are just 20-minutes away in Castletown.
