Les Escaliers Pointues, La Rue des Escaliers, St Martin's GY4 6HZ
Originally built in the 1990’s, this detached cavity-built property has been tastefully updated and provides up to five bedrooms which are serviced by two bath/ shower rooms.
Positioned in a quiet clos in the sought-after parish of St Martin’s, the accommodation further benefits from a well-equipped kitchen, bright and airy lounge and utility room. Externally, the house enjoys lawned garden and patio areas on three sides plus parking and a garage. A super family home in a prime location.
NB: This property benefits from approved plans which includes a flat roof extension with a roof lantern at the rear, creating a spacious open-plan kitchen/ diner and day room. Additionally, a utility room will be incorporated into the garage. The plans, approved in 2020, are available to view at the property.
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.
