Property Description
The Sark Lighthouse was built by Trinity House in 1913 to guide vessels passing through the Channel Islands away from the pinnacle of Blanchard Rock. The white octagonal tower of the lighthouse rises from the flat-roofed service and dwelling rooms, the whole complex clings to the steep face of the cliff which rises above. The lighthouse became automated in 1994 and the station was re-engineered in 2017 and is now monitored and controlled from Essex.
This recently refurbished 3-bedroom apartment offers the unique opportunity to live within an operating lighthouse with spectacular views across to the west coast of France, Alderney and Jersey.
The Lighthouse Apartment has mains electricity, an independent borehole water supply, electric boiler for heating, hot water and cooking and a biological self-emptying treatment plant.
Term: Available to rent on an annually renewable basis.
Property Tax: £608.00 per annum at the 2023 rate of £16.00 per quarter. The measurements of the apartment and outbuildings equate to 38 taxable Sark “quarters”.
Viewing: Strictly by appointment through Sark Estate Agents as the Vendors sole Agent.
Possession: Immediate.
