La Rue Des Croisse, Forest GY8 0BE
‘Le Bourg’ offers a rare opportunity in a highly desirable location, offering both immediate income and excellent redevelopment potential.
The property currently comprises three commercial units alongside a two bedroom local market apartment. The residential unit and one of the commercial units are tenanted on a rolling lease basis, while the remaining two commercial units are vacant and offer scope for improvement.
Planning permission has been granted to redevelop the site to create four contemporary two-bedroom apartments and one one bedroom unit, presenting a fantastic opportunity to maximise value – alternatively, purchasers may choose to refurbish and modernise the existing accommodation, unlocking its full potential while retaining the current mix of uses and income stream.
Le Bourg represents an exceptional opportunity for developers and investors alike.
Formerly known as Trinity, Forest takes its name from its once densely-wooded habitat. The parish is the highest in the island and includes dramatic parts of Guernsey’s south-coast network of cliff paths, best accessed from Le Gouffre. There is a honeycomb of hedge-lined lanes and an enchanting valley down to Petit Bôt Bay, with the charming hamlet of Le Variouf above.
The German Occupation Museum near the parish church is as much for locals as it is visitors, and the family-owned Forest Stores is delightfully retrospective, yet a must for the island’s best family kitchens. The community spirited and award-winning Forest Floral Group is tireless in enhancing the parish they see as a gateway to the island, in the form of Guernsey’s modern airport.
