The Lighthouse Apartment

The Sark lighthouse was built by Trinity House in 1913 to guide vessels passing through the Channel Islands clear of Blanchard Rock. The white octagonal tower rises from the flat-roofed service and residential accommodation, with the whole complex set dramatically against the steep cliff face above. The lighthouse was automated in 1994, re-engineered in 2017, and is now monitored and controlled from Essex.

This fully furnished three-bedroom apartment offers a rare opportunity to live within an operational lighthouse, enjoying spectacular views towards the west coast of France, Alderney and Jersey.

The Lighthouse Apartment has mains electricity, a catchment tank and supplementary independent borehole water supply, electric boiler for heating, hot water and cooking, along with a biological self-emptying treatment plant.
