Highlands Estate, La Neuve Rue, Castel GY5 7RS
Situated close to L’Aumone amenities, Peacehaven is a tucked away chalet bungalow on a quiet clos.
Although in need of modernisation, the accommodation is well proportioned and comprises two double bedrooms plus a study/nursey, family bathroom, separate wc, kitchen and lounge. With a low maintenance fore and rear garden and an allocated single garage, this would be a great home for those looking to move up the property ladder where they could modernise to their own tastes.
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.
