Rue des Bailleuls, St Andrew's GY6 8XB
Delightful detached 1800s cottage with extensive living space and one-bedroom wing.
Tucked away in a quiet lane, this detached cottage dates back to the 1800s and has been lovingly extended and modernised over the last 36 years by its current owners. The property offers generous and flexible living space, with a spacious open plan kitchen/diner and living room on the ground floor and a large lounge on first floor. There are three well-proportioned bedrooms, two of which are ensuite and a separate shower room, providing ample space for family living or entertaining. A stylish, one-bedroom self-contained wing to one side offers additional flexibility— ideal for guests, extended family, or potential rental income.
Bifold doors open onto a large west facing patio and garden, perfect for indoor outdoor living. To the side, there is ample private parking, adding to the convenience of this lovely home.
In the centre of the island is the garden of Guernsey. What the parish lacks in coastline it makes up for in rural pasture, and a Tony Jacklin designed golf course. At its heart St Andrew’s has fields of gold once central to cider making in the island. Its church is affectionately known as St André de la Pommeraye, or St Andrew of the apple orchard, as celebrated each year in good family fashion in the rectory gardens.
There are lovely clusters of granite farmhouses and the Little Chapel’s setting of Vauxbelets means pretty little valleys, watched over by a former monastery, now Blanchelande College. Talbot Valley is even prettier and while it lies predominantly in the Castel, St Andrew’s will point to where it begins.
