Rue Du Bocage, St. Brelade, Jersey, JE3

A charming property, filled with character and versatile living space.

Description

Discover La Ferme du Roi — a one-of-a-kind estate rich in character, history, and potential. Dating back to 1616, this property is reputed to have sheltered King Charles II and his mistress during the English Civil War.

More than just a home, La Ferme du Roi offers a rare opportunity to own a timeless piece of the island’s past, blended seamlessly with modern comfort and versatility.

The heart is the beautifully maintained main house, offering generous living space across four well-appointed bedrooms and three bathrooms. A dedicated home office provides the perfect environment for remote work, while a side room—currently used as a gym—adds further flexibility for hobbies or additional accommodation.

For those seeking more space, the full loft offers exciting potential. With minimal work, it could be transformed into a spacious fifth bedroom, creative studio, or state-of-the-art media room, adding further value and lifestyle appeal to the property.

Ideal for extended family, guests, or generating rental income, the separate guest cottage features two bedrooms and bathrooms, arranged across a bright, open-plan upper level. With its fully self-contained layout and ample natural light, it offers both privacy and flexibility — an appealing prospect for visiting guests.

Beyond the accommodation, the estate includes a garage (currently used for storage), an outhouse, and a large garden storage unit — all contributing to the property’s practical charm.

La Ferme du Roi sits on approximately seven verges of land, divided into two large fields currently leased for the cultivation of Jersey Royals. This arrangement not only preserves the land’s agricultural heritage but also generates enough income to cover parish rates and ongoing maintenance — including the care of mature trees and hedgerows. Alternatively, the fields are perfectly suited for equestrian or livestock use, adding yet another dimension to the property’s flexibility.

The garden area also offers scope for future development, subject to planning permission, with ample room to add a 2–3 car garage, stables, or even a pool and outdoor entertaining space.

Tucked away in tranquil countryside, La Ferme du Roi offers an unmatched combination of seclusion, heritage, and opportunity. Whether you envision a multigenerational family estate, a boutique rural escape, or an equestrian haven, this property is primed to bring your vision to life — all while owning a true piece of island history.

Location

Nestled in one of Jersey’s most sought-after parishes, La Ferme Du Roi is just moments from the golden sands of St Brelade’s Bay and the vibrant harbour village of St Aubin, with its array of restaurants, cafés, and boutique shops.
