Les Escaliers Pointues, Rue des Escaliers, St Martin's GY4 6HZ
A detached cavity-built family home forming part of a small clos of similar properties, built in the 90’s, in the desirable parish of St Martin’s.
As per the name, this lovely home sits on a corner plot boasting a south facing garden, flooding the house with natural light. Although in need of modernisation in areas, the accommodation comprises a large lounge, kitchen, dining room and three bedrooms which are serviced by an ensuite to the main bedroom and a family bathroom. A garage and parking for 2 – 3 vehicles completes the offering.
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.
