Route de Pleinmont, Torteval GY8 0LP
Set within the tranquil parish of Torteval, this detached chalet bungalow offers excellent space alongside picturesque surroundings, enjoying uninterrupted views across agricultural fields towards Torteval Church.
The versatile accommodation is arranged over the ground and lower ground floors and comprises a kitchen/breakfast room, study, dining room, three bedrooms, each benefitting from their own en-suite along with two additional separate WC’s. A notable highlight is the living room featuring sliding doors that open onto a balcony overlooking the manicured gardens and fields beyond.
Ample parking, a garage and well maintained outdoor areas complete the offering.
Torteval is in two parts, although only 100 feet apart at Rue de L’Aitte. It includes Pleinmont Point, a favourite walk beginning at the quaint harbour of Portelet. The higher ground is Guernsey’s equivalent to Land’s End and the start, or end, of the spectacular south-coast network of cliff paths.
The sandy stretch of Rocquaine Bay and its regatta shared with St Peter’s are mentioned above, but Torteval’s great attraction is the Scarecrow Festival, annually drawing in 8,000 people over two days, strolling through the patchwork of scenic lanes near the parish church.
There is space aplenty throughout the parish, due to the relatively low ratio of houses, and demand is high. Some buyers say it’s too far out, which, for others, is what makes Torteval special.
