Marette De Haut, Rues Des Marettes, St Martin's GY4 6JL
A semi detached chalet bungalow situate on a quiet clos in the desirable parish of St Martin’s close to the village amenities and popular primary school.
Surrounded by the rural walks and coastal paths that the parish has to offer, Ashton offers well balanced accommodation comprising a kitchen and lounge diner on the ground floor with three bedrooms and a bathroom on the first floor. To the rear of the property is a south facing garden laid to lawn and to the front, parking and access to the garage. With the opportunity to put your own stamp on this super home, early viewing is recommended.
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.
