Ste Hélène ManorRoute de St Andre, St Andrew, GY6 8XN

A rare example of an iconic Georgian period residence in a country setting close to St Andrew's Parish Church. Featuring a classic and elegant façade, the house has been built to take advantage of its sloping site with a lower garden floor level, a ground and two upper storeys, and two double floored wings with independent accesses.

A superb columned portico supports a first floor balcony and frames a double entrance, opening to a dramatic reception hallway that perfectly reflects the quality of the internal space throughout. All the principal rooms display the archetypal proportions of the period coupled with the high natural light levels associated with regency style windows.

The extended floorplan offers plenty of scope for ancillary accommodation, including a semi self-contained apartment, an indoor pool and a health suite.

The grounds cover just over 1.8 acres with the main vehicular access being through in and out gates, with a sweeping gravelled driveway leading up to a large parking area beside the front door. The gardens themselves are largely lawned, interspersed with flower and shrub beds, and incorporate an outdoor swimming pool, a petanque court and a large garage block with a large studio area and billiard room above.

All in all, a particularly fine characterful home with further potential for enhancement to rightfully secure its place as one of the island's foremost properties.
