10 Croutes Havilland Cottages, Croutes Havilland, St Peter Port GY1 1EX
This delightful detached chalet bungalow is peacefully situated on a quiet lane on the outskirts of St Peter Port, while remaining conveniently close to the amenities of St Martin’s Village.
Well-proportioned throughout, the property has undergone updates over the years including a roof conversion in 2002 and the addition of a conservatory in 2008. Some areas would benefit from modernisation, offering an excellent opportunity for customization. The ground floor features a bright and airy lounge/ diner, a kitchen, bedroom, bathroom and the aforementioned conservatory. Upstairs, you’ll find a second bedroom, practical separate WC and a versatile further room which could serve as a study or nursery. Externally, Saintilan enjoys a west-facing rear garden, predominantly laid to lawn, perfect for outdoor enjoyment.
The picturesque harbour town combines pedestrian shopping and alfresco bars and restaurants. There are fine hotels, St James Concert Hall, Candie Gardens and two exceptional colleges in sight of each other, while Victor Hugo’s Hauteville House is in the older French quarter.
Its thriving square-mile in the business sector includes leading names in finance, insurance and law and Admiral Park is a modern, dockland-style redevelopment of apartments, offices and one of two Waitrose mega-stores in the parish.
St Peter Port still has open green spaces inland and a small park with a popular leisure centre. Old and new houses sit comfortably together but it is the larger Georgian townhouses, spectacular new-builds on high ground, brewery conversions and the Fort George private estate that catch the eye.
