Sous les Courtils, Castel GY5 7HU
Situated in a pleasant clos in Castel is this charming and spacious two-double bedroom property requiring modernisation with great potential
The property is offered to the market with a traditional feel throughout allowing any prospective owner to add their stamp and renovate this home. The accommodation comprises an entrance hall, spacious sitting room and open plan kitchen/dining room leading to the conservatory which overlooks the garden. In addition are two bright double bedrooms, one with a small shower room. Externally, there is a paved driveway with ample parking to the front and a garage. The private, south facing garden stretches from the side to the rear of the property and includes mature shrubs, trees and a patioed seating area.
Guernsey’s largest parish geographically and family-friendly at heart, with safe sandy beaches and leafy Saumarez Park, home to summer festivals, the National Trust of Guernsey’s Folk Museum and children’s adventure playground.
The near-legendary fish and chips on the sea wall watching stunning sunsets is as good as it sounds, shared by more formal west-coast dining, if preferred.
There are wide tracks of green-belt land, especially at Talbot Valley and nearby Fauxquets Valley, and an eclectic mix of housing styles and densities. This includes clusters of fine old farmhouses, notably in the hamlet of Kings Mills, although modern architecture is increasingly popular, especially when replacing 20th century buildings. The proposed redevelopment of La Grande Mare Golf Club to international status is affirmation of Castel’s inherent appeal.
