Warwick Avenue, Portinfer Road, Vale GY6 8HT
Ocean Beach is a well-presented, garage-linked property situated in a quiet clos within walking distance of Port Soif.
This well-proportioned family home offers a double bedroom with en-suite on the ground floor, along with an open plan kitchen/diner featuring folding doors into the lounge. There is also an additional versatile room which could be used as a dressing room.
On the first floor are two double bedrooms, both with built-in storage, and a modern family bathroom. Externally, the property benefits from a gravelled driveway providing parking for multiple vehicles and a good-sized rear garden.
The ancient names of Le Clos du Valle and Vale Vingtaine de l’Epine remain on record but they are administered as one and jointly called Vale.
The parish offers wide sandy beaches and surfing at Portinfer, two fishing harbours at Grande Harve, a marina at Beaucette and horseshoe harbour at Bordeaux. There is a Royal 18-hole links course within extensive common land that also has a competition-standard rifle range.
Vale and its former abbey found favour with William the Conqueror and his father before him, whose storm-torn ship found safety at L’Ancresse (the anchorage). Wealth and industry have long since been Vale’s bywords, displayed in numerous 17th- and 18th-century farmhouses, pretty cottages and vast Victorian villas in an inland maze of lanes.
