Rue Des Brouards, Torteval GY8 0LF
Situated in a tranquil lane in the heart of Torteval, this unique barn blends rustic charm and modern living.
The ground floor level comprises a bedroom and bathroom with the first floor opening into a kitchen diner with lounge also on this floor with doors opening out on to a garden area. A mezzanine level provides a versatile extra space and a further handy storage room leads off at this level.
NB: Full planning permission has been gained to demolish wall, excavate, erect retaining wall and external steps to create vehicle access and parking area to the north-east boundary. A parking space will be available at the neighbouring property until such works are completed. A diagram noting the approved concept is provided in this brochure.
Torteval is in two parts, although only 100 feet apart at Rue de L’Aitte. It includes Pleinmont Point, a favourite walk beginning at the quaint harbour of Portelet. The higher ground is Guernsey’s equivalent to Land’s End and the start, or end, of the spectacular south-coast network of cliff paths.
The sandy stretch of Rocquaine Bay and its regatta shared with St Peter’s are mentioned above, but Torteval’s great attraction is the Scarecrow Festival, annually drawing in 8,000 people over two days, strolling through the patchwork of scenic lanes near the parish church.
There is space aplenty throughout the parish, due to the relatively low ratio of houses, and demand is high. Some buyers say it’s too far out, which, for others, is what makes Torteval special.
