Substantial period residence with excellent potential.

Description

A rare opportunity to acquire an impressive and substantial period residence set within generous grounds, offering extensive and versatile accommodation arranged over multiple floors. While in need of renovation, the property presents exceptional scope to create a remarkable family home or multi-generational residence.

Le Haguais is a property rich in history, having been in the same family since 1962 and appearing on Jersey maps as early as the 18th century. Dating back to circa 1600, the house is Grade 3 listed and retains a number of character features, including a rare tourelle staircase and an original 18th-century fireplace, with sash windows that have been sensitively restored. The long, straight driveway also forms part of the Island’s wartime history, once used as a railway line transporting materials along the east coast during the German occupation.

The main house provides spacious and adaptable living throughout, with the ground floor comprising a range of versatile rooms offering flexibility for formal entertaining and family living, along with a utility room, ample storage, and two separate WCs.

A staircase leads to an additional self-contained room above on the first floor, ideal as a an office or private sitting room. There are also four well-proportioned bedrooms on this floor, served by two bathrooms.

Further accommodation is provided on the second floor, with six additional versatile rooms, suitable for use as bedrooms or reception spaces, together with two bathrooms, making this level ideal for larger families or guest accommodation.

The third floor provides a useful store room, further enhancing the practicality of the property.

Externally, the property is approached via a gated driveway leading to ample parking and a detached double garage. The surrounding gardens are extensive, predominantly laid to lawn with established planting, offering privacy and significant outdoor space.

In addition, there is a separate annex, comprising a ground floor room suitable for living/kitchen use with an adjoining bathroom, and stairs to a first-floor room, likely to serve as a bedroom. This provides excellent potential for guest accommodation or income generation.

Overall, this is a property of considerable scale and character, offering a rare chance to modernise and restore a substantial home in a desirable setting.
