One of the most prestigious homes in the Channel Islands has been put up for sale with an asking price of £3.75 million.
Les Mouriaux House, which was historically the residence of Alderney’s Governors, is widely regarded as the most substantial and prestigious house on the island.
The exquisite six bedroom Georgian home occupies an elevated and quiet position in St Anne’s and has the added benefit of a self-contained guest annex.
Having recently undergone full renovation and improvement works, Les Mouriaux House is superbly appointed with high specification and quality finishes throughout.
Built in 1779 by Peter Le Mesurier, son of the then governor John Le Mesurier, the property is steeped in history and has been visited by both Queen Victoria during her reign, and Queen Elizabeth in 1956. It also served as the residence of the first President of Alderney.
The island of Alderney is also the setting for bestselling author Anthony Horowitz’s latest novel A Line to Kill, which has been published within the last week.
Keith Enevoldsen, Head of Residential Sales for Savills in Guernsey, says: “The sale of Les Mouriaux House represents an incredibly rare opportunity for a discerning buyer to acquire the Island’s finest house and enjoy the benefits and charm that only Alderney holds. In addition to its wonderful history, the current owners have ensured that the home has maintained its character through a careful renovation which makes it an even more welcoming family home.”
