Les Brayes, Steam Mill Lanes, St Martin's GY4 6XG
A detached bungalow set in an elevated position within the tranquil surroundings of St Peter’s Valley, offering a peaceful and private setting.
The accommodation comprises a lounge, kitchen/dining room, and two bedrooms, including a principal bedroom with ensuite shower room. A separate study provides flexibility for home working or additional use, complemented by a family bathroom.
Externally, the property benefits from gravelled parking to the rear for two vehicles, along with a large garage capable of accommodating two cars in tandem. The garden is partly laid to lawn with an additional gravelled area, offering a manageable outdoor space within this picturesque valley location.
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.
