Clos des Fontaines, Rue des Croutes, St Martin's
Detached family home in the quiet lanes of St Martin’s with the south coast cliffs a short stroll away.
The property offers well proportioned accommodation with excellent living space for a growing family including a sitting room, dining room, sun room, kitchen/breakfast room, utility, separate wc and garage whilst on the first floor 3 double bedrooms are serviced by 2 bath/shower rooms (1 ensuite). This property offers a blank canvas and gives the purchaser an opportunity to put their own stamp on the home with redecoration and modernisation. Externally there is parking for two cars in front of the garage and a lawned rear garden with patio area ideal for al fresco dining.
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.
