Cottage No.2 currently extends to 1,367 sq ft and, following the approved scheme, will increase to approximately 1,829 sq ft. This is a rare opportunity to acquire one of two handsome granite cottages with consent to create a substantial four-bedroom home within a highly sought-after St. Brelade location, discreetly elevated above St. Aubin’s Bay.

The Grade 3-listed cottage sits within an attractive cottage complex of just two properties and is complemented by a generous private garden and parking. Full planning permission is in place to transform the property, carefully blending historic character with contemporary architecture and allowing for a premium specification that reflects the prestige of the setting.

Whether implemented in line with the approved plans or through a more sensitive refurbishment of the existing accommodation, the scope here is compelling, all set within a peaceful and leafy valley environment.

To ensure clarity, please note that the bedroom count and overall square footage referenced within our bullet points are based on the property as it will be configured following completion of the approved redevelopment plans. This approach allows applicants to search for the home they ultimately require, rather than being limited by the existing layout.

What Grade 3 Listing Means in Jersey

Grade 3 listed buildings are recognised as being of special public and heritage interest, representing good examples of historic periods or architectural styles, albeit often with later alterations that slightly diminish their original integrity. They form part of Jersey’s wider four-tier listing system, ranging from Grade 1 to Grade 4, which exists to protect the Island’s most important built assets.

While Grade 3 properties may have been adapted over time, their key architectural and historic features remain significant and are therefore protected. Any works that would affect their special character, including internal alterations, require Listed Building Consent in addition to standard planning permission.

Grade 3 listings can be researched through the Jersey Government website by searching for individual properties or relevant criteria, and by consulting parish-by-parish listings available.

HER Reference: BR0017

Reason for Listing: Architectural and historic interest

Statement of Significance:

An unusual pair of rural semi-detached cottages dating from the 17th century, displaying a strong survival of original features and character and making a valuable contribution to the rural streetscape.

Architectural Description

The cottages form a linear range.

No.2 is a four-bay, two-storey dwelling. The south elevation has a slate roof laid in a diagonal pattern, rendered stone chimneys with thatch stones, and random rubble walls with irregular stone quoins. Window surrounds have upright jambs raised by one quoin and appear to have been widened. Windows are sixteen-pane (8/8) sashes, with a shallow recess beneath the eaves near the party wall, possibly indicating a blocked opening. The door has a quoined surround with a stone lintel and a six-panel door, the upper four panels glazed. The low boundary wall is rendered.

Historic Notes

This is an unusual pair of semi-detached rural cottages outside the main town area, possibly dating to around 1670, with the smaller cottage likely built first. The six-piece window surrounds appear to be original, although the sash windows are probably later, with the four-over-two sashes likely from the 18th century. The shallow recesses may represent blocked former windows, and additions to the north elevations are of more recent origin.
