The home in Eastfield Mansion House closed its doors in 2017
A planning application has been submitted to demolish a former nursing home in Douglas and build five new houses.
Care Developments Ltd wants to knock down Eastfield Mansion House to create five new 4-bedroom houses.
Each would have the associated garages, parking, amended access, amended drainage, and landscaping.
They would also each have a small front garden and a larger rear garden.
The applicant says the development will make 'efficient use of a brownfield site and will deliver 5 new homes in the centre of Douglas, at a density of approximately 13 dwellings per acre'.
The design of the new dwellings will be in the context of the character of the locality with the houses being in a terrace.
The care home closed its doors in 2017, and the building has remained unoccupied ever since.
It sits in the north-western corner of an informal square formed by Westmount, Eastfield, Mount Bradda and Brighton Terrace in Douglas.
