Description
On the market for the first time since its construction in the early 1980s. Designed by Ron Hickman, inventor of the Black & Decker Workmate, this property stands as a landmark of its era, celebrated for both its innovative high tech design and eco conscious approach to energy conservation.
Classified as a Grade 2 listed property, this home is valued as an exceptional example of architecture from its time. With an enduringly consistent design throughout, it remains largely unaltered and showcases an impressive use of natural light and premium materials. Its architectural integrity and distinctive vision set it apart, not only in Jersey but internationally.
One of the homes most distinctive architectural features is its unique roof line, which sweeps down to meet the ground at various points, creating a striking silhouette. The property is accessed via a grand, pillared entrance, with a curving driveway leading through manicured grounds that cover four acres of mostly flat, landscaped lawn, framed by mature trees and shrubs, offering privacy within one of Jersey`s most sought-after locations.
Positioned to maximise sea views from nearly every principal room, the home boasts a highly desirable setting. Inside, an elegant entrance hall with a sweeping staircase welcomes you, leading to the impressive 32 foot wide sitting room. This space features high ceilings, a real fireplace, expansive floor to ceiling windows, and direct terrace access. Additional reception areas include a music room, craft room, snooker room, and games room, alongside office spaces, the most notable being a top floor office with panoramic sea views and a substantial 39 foot span.
The primary suite is generously sized at 32 feet in width, featuring a dressing area, en-suite bathroom, and private balcony with expansive views over the lawns to the sea. Two further bedrooms occupy this level, and a lift offers easy access to all floors.
For additional versatility, the property includes three separate apartments, ideal for guest or staff accommodations, which can either integrate with the main house or be accessed independently. A luxurious indoor pool complex with changing rooms and a sauna further enhances the lifestyle appeal.
Outside, the property offers three double integral garages, a single garage block, and ample parking for over 20 vehicles.
