Completed in 2004, La Chataigne is a thoughtfully constructed timber-framed residence, finished with a rendered concrete block exterior and enhanced by handsome granite stone quoins at each corner.  The south, east, and west-facing elevations are further complemented by granite quoin surrounds to all windows and doors, adding timeless charm and character to the property.

Centrally located on the island of Sark, this south-facing home enjoys an enviable position with excellent natural light throughout the day.  The property sits within a generous, lawned plot bordered by mature hedging and well-established shrubs, offering a high degree of privacy.  A large garden shed provides practical storage – ideal for bikes, gardening tools, or outdoor equipment.

Inside, the home is presented in a neutral palette and is immaculate throughout.  It benefits from double glazing, oil-fired central heating and hot water, and a large wood-burning stove in the lounge.  The kitchen is fitted with a traditional two-oven oil-fired AGA, perfect for both cooking and creating a cosy ambience.

Practicality is well considered throughout, with ceramic tile flooring in the kitchen, dining area, utility room, entrance hall, and downstairs shower room, while all remaining areas are carpeted for comfort.  The spacious, insulated loft – accessed via a hatch and drop-down ladder in the central bedroom – offers excellent storage and houses the water storage tank.

La Chataigne is a superb opportunity for those seeking a quality, well-positioned family home with privacy, charm, and enduring appeal on the beautiful island of Sark.

La Chataigne has mains electricity, oil-fired Aga and electric oven for cooking along with LPG gas bottles for the 2-ring hob, oil-fired boiler for central heating and hot water, a shared borehole provided by the Lessor and shared sewage treatment plant owned and maintained by the Lessor.
