Unit 2, Le Tertre

Sheppards are delighted to present Unit 2, Le Tertre to the local market. This truly captivating, newly converted 1300s farmhouse has been lovingly and meticulously renovated to an exceptionally high standard, showcasing many standout period features thoughtfully incorporated alongside modern living. This property is nestled within the peaceful lanes of Vale, offering a quiet and picturesque setting. Le Tertre was originally constructed in the early 1300s and has undergone many iterations over the centuries largely as a "Fortified House" and remains a significantly documented part of Guernsey's history. The "Chamber Block" itself had escaped any major renovation or re-building works throughout it's 700 year history and was largely intact, including what is believed to be the original roof structure (which was constructed of repurposed ships timbers). The property has now undergone an 18 month renovation to bring it in line with current building standards, while maintaining it's true nature through passionate, skilled craftsmanship with incredible attention to detail. While having essential modern elements, the renovation has maintained a true 'step back in time' feel throughout. Upon entering the heart of the home, the property presents a stunning kitchen/diner/sitting room, complete with exposed granite, ancient timber beams, barn style windows and doors and original fireplace now housing the staircase. Downstairs, the accommodation comprises of an open hallway, with an original furze oven, a spacious double bedroom complete with an elegant arched window that frames the courtyard beyond and a contemporary, well proportioned shower room. To the front of the property is a generous garden, laid to lawn with a gravel pathway, alongside designated parking spaces for two vehicles and a visitors space. A beautiful access only communal courtyard can be accessed from the downstairs hallway and features a water pump with a granite trough dating back to 1823, as well as a concealed bin store for added convenience. Le Tertre is a listed building and presents a unique opportunity to own a significant piece of Guernsey's Medieval History that not only radiates charm, but also offers the ideal space for first-time buyers or those looking to downsize without sacrificing the benefits of a garden and private parking. Le Tertre has come with a glowing endorsement from one of Guernsey's leading architects - Andre Rolfé-Bisson of A7 Architecture: "With over 700 years of history meticulously reimagined by an exceptionally talented individual, this project stands as a testament to the art of preservation. Every moment spent here reveals new details that captivate the eye, showcasing a rich history that has been lovingly maintained throughout the renovation. This is undoubtedly one of the most breathtaking projects I experienced in 2025. The evident passion poured into this work radiates character and charm, creating an unparalleled sense of tranquility that is rarely found in new constructions. To say I have fallen in love with this project would be an understatement." Early viewing is highly recommended to appreciate every detail this one-of-a-kind property has to offer.
