Property Description
A fantastic opportunity to purchase a freehold on the island of Sark. Ceded from Seigneurie land in the 1930s, Clos de Dixcart du Manoir consists of approximately an acre which is centrally located and approached via a hard-core track from Mill Lane with access having been granted by the Seigneur. Two open market properties are situated on this freehold: Clos de Dixcart, which was rebuilt in 1999 and the Den which was completed in 2021. A stable, tack room and wood store, garage and workshop are also located in the grounds surrounding the two properties, whilst a paddock is situated to the south of the plot. Surrounded by garden terraces and established trees and shrubs yet secluded away from public gaze, both properties are immaculately presented and tastefully decorated throughout, with Clos de Dixcart making a desirable and comfortable family home whilst The Den is currently in use as tourist accommodation; both are perfect for entertaining family and friends.
Both properties have access to mains electricity. The water supply is presently catchment water with an 8,000-gallon underground, concrete tank with additional water storage elsewhere whilst an interconnected soak-away provides sewage disposal for Clos de Dixcart and The Den. A shared oil-fired boiler provides Clos de Dixcart and The Den heating and hot water, with solar panels also contributing towards the heating of water at The Den, and an oil-fired cooking range assisting in heating water as well at Clos de Dixcart. LPG gas bottles are also used for cooking in both properties.
