An attractive Jersey granite farmhouse situated in a peaceful rural location

About this property

  • A rare opportunity to restore a substantial traditional Jersey granite farmhouse to its former glory and create a wonderful two generation family home for years to come. Arranged over three storeys, this handsome 18th century five-bay house benefits from later wings to the east and west and offers particularly generous and versatile accommodation.

    Requiring renovation throughout, the ground floor of the main house comprises three reception rooms, a kitchen/breakfast room and a large utility room. A separate tradesman’s entrance provides practical access to the integral double garage and workshop.

    Upstairs, the impressive principal bedroom features a vaulted ceiling, dressing room, en-suite bathroom and private balcony overlooking the garden. There are two further en-suite bedrooms, together with two additional attic bedrooms, providing excellent scope for family living and visiting guests.

    Adding considerably to the versatility of the property, the house is linked to a self-contained, single level one bedroom unit with access to its own private garden. This offers an ideal arrangement for two generation living, extended family, a live-in carer or potential income.

    Externally, a traditional bakehouse further enhances the character of the property, while the beautifully maintained, south facing garden is a particular highlight. Mature trees, established planting and hedging create a wonderfully secluded setting, offering complete privacy and tranquillity. A generous additional level garden, currently arranged as a vegetable allotment, adjoins the property and could easily be incorporated into the main garden, offering exciting scope for a swimming pool, tennis court or further landscaping.

    With its wealth of character, substantial accommodation and exciting potential, this is a superb opportunity for a purchaser with vision to sympathetically renovate and enhance a traditional Jersey home, creating an exceptional family residence.

    Offered with no onward chain.
