La Grande Rue, St Martin's GY4 6RT
A lovely detached cavity built bungalow, superbly situated in the highly desirable centre of St Martin’s Village, convenient for all the amenities and with a gate onto school lane giving easy access to the excellent parish school and country lanes.
A lovely spacious bungalow, superbly situated on a beautiful, extensive, and very private garden plot, and with easy & speedy access to all St Martin amenities, and only a 10 minute cycle ride through pretty country lanes, to St Peter Port. With the highly regarded & successful Parish Primary School just a short walk up School Lane, beyond which lie the gorgeous country hinterland of rural St Martin, this is a must see property for everyone, and especially families or those with grandchildren of a certain age.
Jerbourg Point marks St Martin’s and Guernsey’s south-east corner with panoramic views across to neighbouring islands. Fermain Bay was a favourite of Victor Hugo’s, and Pierre-Auguste Renoir captured Moulin Huet in fifteen of his paintings.
Cliff paths and green lanes provide excellent walks and Sausmarez Manor is a resplendent Queen Anne house, with regular events in its grounds. There are good family amenities, excellent hotels, restaurants and pubs, plus a M&S food hall for home dining. This is a sought-after location with a vibrant parish centre and housing market to match.
At the gateway to St Martin’s parish church stands La Gran’mère du Chimquière (the grandmother of the churchyard), where present-day brides often adorn the pagan statue-menhir (c.2500BC) with a floral headdress.
