Route des Paysans, St Pierre du Bois GY7 9JX
A recently renovated farmhouse enjoying a rural location above the west coast with La Houguette School and the amenities of St Peter’s village a short walk away.
A lovely home with many original features combine rustic charm with modern living. Well fitted kitchen/diner, large lounge with multifuel stove and 3 good bedrooms with fitted wardrobes. Externally there is an allocated area of garden together with a large greenhouse and ample parking. Pets at owners discretion. Dogs are not permitted.
Step back a pace into rural St Peter’s, where the family next door will have owned the same house for generations. Tradition and the beauty of these houses go some way to explain why, and strict planning measures allow limited opportunity for new residents wanting to share this sylvan idyll.
St Peter’s has two coastlines – dramatic high cliffs to the South, with an exceptional stretch of the cliff-path network, and sandy beaches to the West that, with Torteval, host the annual Rocquaine Regatta (Henley, it’s not!). At the far end of L’Eree beach is the tidal island of Lihou and the adjacent nature reserve that form Guernsey’s first RAMSAR site. Also hereabouts are the showground fields for the annual two-day West Show, an agricultural and side-show extravaganza.
