Rue des Naftiaux, St Andrew's GY6 8XA
A charming 16th century Guernsey farmhouse with attached wing set within picturesque gardens.
This traditional Guernsey farmhouse, on the list of protected buildings with parts dating back to the 1530’s, offers substantial accommodation all within a picturesque and tranquil St Andrew’s Lane. Parts of the home offer scope for modernisation, allowing new owners to tailor the interior to their own taste and style. The main house features five bedrooms (serviced by a family shower room and en-suite to main bedroom), cosy snug, lounge with impressive granite fireplace, kitchen diner and practical utility room with WC. Adjoining the main home is a recently renovated self-contained one-bedroom wing complete with open plan kitchen/dining/living area on the ground floor and bedroom and shower room on the first – ideal for extended family, guests or as a potential rental opportunity.
Set within beautiful gardens, the property further benefits from ample parking and a double garage.
In the centre of the island is the garden of Guernsey. What the parish lacks in coastline it makes up for in rural pasture, and a Tony Jacklin designed golf course. At its heart St Andrew’s has fields of gold once central to cider making in the island. Its church is affectionately known as St André de la Pommeraye, or St Andrew of the apple orchard, as celebrated each year in good family fashion in the rectory gardens.
There are lovely clusters of granite farmhouses and the Little Chapel’s setting of Vauxbelets means pretty little valleys, watched over by a former monastery, now Blanchelande College. Talbot Valley is even prettier and while it lies predominantly in the Castel, St Andrew’s will point to where it begins.
