Rue de Bouverie, Castel GY5 7TZ
This substantial semi-detached house is situated only a short walk from the west coast beaches and Saumarez Park.
The property has been renovated by the current owners, including a new roof, electrics, and plumbing. The property consists of a spacious lounge, a separate new kitchen/dining room, a new utility, a cloakroom, and a conservatory. Upstairs there are four well-proportioned bedrooms and a new family bathroom. The property has ample parking to the front and a single garage, to the rear is a low-maintenance enclosed patio. There is planning permission to convert the garage into further accommodation, if desired.
Guernsey’s largest parish geographically and family-friendly at heart, with safe sandy beaches and leafy Saumarez Park, home to summer festivals, the National Trust of Guernsey’s Folk Museum and children’s adventure playground.
The near-legendary fish and chips on the sea wall watching stunning sunsets is as good as it sounds, shared by more formal west-coast dining, if preferred.
There are wide tracks of green-belt land, especially at Talbot Valley and nearby Fauxquets Valley, and an eclectic mix of housing styles and densities. This includes clusters of fine old farmhouses, notably in the hamlet of Kings Mills, although modern architecture is increasingly popular, especially when replacing 20th century buildings. The proposed redevelopment of La Grande Mare Golf Club to international status is affirmation of Castel’s inherent appeal.
