La Rue de la Corbinerie, St Martin's GY4 6SW
This super semi detached traditional home has been lovingly maintained by the current owners and offers a tranquil retreat in the desirable parish of St Martin’s.
The accommodation comprises two bedrooms, a bathroom and a lovely open plan kitchen living area complete with wood burning stove plus a handy additional conservatory. Externally, parking for 1 vehicle is positioned to the front of the property and to the rear, a deceptive mature garden complete with useful shed and vegetable borders.
Please note – there are current passed plans to demolish the existing conservatory and to erect a single storey extension to the rear elevation. These plans would create a kitchen to the rear of the property and a downstairs WC/ utility room.
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.
