La Ruette, St Martin's GY4 6QP
Situated on a peaceful lane in St Martin’s, Granville presents an exciting opportunity to put your own stamp on a property.
This cavity-built home offers three bedrooms, including a primary bedroom with an en-suite, and generous living spaces. While requiring upgrading and modernisation throughout, the property holds great potential. The exterior includes a swimming pool and a pool house, perfect for relaxing or entertaining. The property sits on an open plot, featuring mature trees and bushes, a predominantly lawned garden, ample parking, and a single garage with a floored attic space for additional storage. Early viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate the possibilities Granville has to offer.
Jerbourg Point marks St Martin’s and Guernsey’s south-east corner with panoramic views across to neighbouring islands. Fermain Bay was a favourite of Victor Hugo’s, and Pierre-Auguste Renoir captured Moulin Huet in fifteen of his paintings.
Cliff paths and green lanes provide excellent walks and Sausmarez Manor is a resplendent Queen Anne house, with regular events in its grounds. There are good family amenities, excellent hotels, restaurants and pubs, plus a M&S food hall for home dining. This is a sought-after location with a vibrant parish centre and housing market to match.
At the gateway to St Martin’s parish church stands La Gran’mère du Chimquière (the grandmother of the churchyard), where present-day brides often adorn the pagan statue-menhir (c.2500BC) with a floral headdress.
