Guelles Road, St Peter Port GY1 2DB
A super example of a period home which effortlessly blends traditional elegance with a contemporary flair. Boasting generous proportions throughout, the property has also been recently extended to create a fantastic balance of reception and bedroom space for an established or growing family.
Each of the five bedrooms benefits from their own en-suite, with the main bedroom spanning the whole top floor further benefitting from distant sea and island views. A new kitchen living extension opens out onto an elevated south-west facing patio and onto the mature lawned garden. With further ample living space, parking for multiple vehicles plus a double garage, viewing is high recommended to appreciate all on offer.
The picturesque harbour town combines pedestrian shopping and alfresco bars and restaurants. There are fine hotels, St James Concert Hall, Candie Gardens and two exceptional colleges in sight of each other, while Victor Hugo’s Hauteville House is in the older French quarter.
Its thriving square-mile in the business sector includes leading names in finance, insurance and law and Admiral Park is a modern, dockland-style redevelopment of apartments, offices and one of two Waitrose mega-stores in the parish.
St Peter Port still has open green spaces inland and a small park with a popular leisure centre. Old and new houses sit comfortably together but it is the larger Georgian townhouses, spectacular new-builds on high ground, brewery conversions and the Fort George private estate that catch the eye.
