La Mare Denis, St Martin's GY4 6EF
Beautifully maintained and presented by the current owners this charming semi-detached cottage is located in the desirable St Martin’s lanes moments away from local eateries and a short walk to the south coast cliffs.
Offering versatile accommodation with up to 4 bedrooms including a lovely primary bedroom suite with dressing room and ensuite bathroom. The kitchen opens on to a lovely decked area providing an ideal alfresco entertaining space and to the side there is ample parking which leads on to the field (please note that the neighbour has a right of way across the driveway). A beautiful home, viewing highly recommended by Cooper Brouard.
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.
