La Giffardiere, Albecq, Castel GY5 7HN
Villa d’Albecq enjoys lovely views from the first floor accommodation over the adjacent pink granite headland towards the sea.
The accommodation provides generous reception areas including a first floor living room with access to the balcony, a garden room that enjoys views over the private rear garden, garaging for three cars, and a guest suite (above the double garage). The surrounding gardens are enclosed by walls and predominantly south and west facing, there are sandy beaches a short stroll away and this attractive home’s position takes full advantage of our stunning sunsets.
School catchment: Castel
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.
