Chemin Le Roi, Torteval GY8 ONH
Nestled in the peaceful lanes of Torteval, this beautifully refurbished Victorian Villa offers an exceptional blend of character, comfort, and contemporary living.
The ground floor boasts reception rooms, a large kitchen which flows seamlessly to the outdoor space which is perfect for alfresco dining and summer gatherings. Upstairs the well-appointed bedrooms are complemented by 4 bathrooms which have retained the villa’s original charm and character. Outside, the property truly comes into its own equipped with expansive lawned gardens while the swimming pool, jacuzzi, and life-sized outdoor chess set add a touch of luxury and fun, making this a perfect family sanctuary.
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.
