Lavington, Beauport Estate, La Route des Genets, St. Brelade

This exceptional detached residence, located in the highly sought-after Parish of St Brelade and moments from some of Jersey’s most spectacular beaches, has been transformed from its 1930s origins into a striking contemporary family home through an extensive programme of renovation, extension and modernisation. Offering 7 bedrooms and 7 bathrooms, Lavington provides exceptional flexibility to suit a variety of lifestyles. The main house comprises 5 spacious and individually designed first-floor bedrooms, served by 5 bathrooms, including 3 luxurious en-suites, a family bathroom and an additional ground-floor shower room. The principal suite enjoys the added luxury of a private balcony – a peaceful retreat for a morning coffee, an afternoon with a good book or quiet evenings beneath the stars.

At the heart of the home is a beautifully designed open-plan living space where modern effortless living and contemporary style have been perfectly combined. Expansive bi-fold doors create a seamless connection to the generous south-west facing terrace, inviting effortless indoor-outdoor flow and making it equally suited to relaxed family life or large-scale entertaining. While modernised throughout, the home still retains at its heart a fully functioning and iconic Claygate fireplace, serving as a nod to the property’s elegant history. A separate study or playroom and a stylish utility room further enhance the practicality of the layout.

The property is complemented by two self-contained 1-bedroom annexes positioned on either side of the main residence, offering remarkable versatility. On one side is a newly constructed, spacious open-plan apartment with its own private garden, ideal for independent family members, guests or to provide income potential. The second annexe currently provides flexible accommodation as a guest suite, home office, gym or studio and, subject to the usual consents, could be converted into a double garage or seamlessly reincorporated into the main house. Indeed, both annexes offer the opportunity to create substantial additional reception or living accommodation should future needs evolve. The beautifully lawned garden also provides plenty of space for the addition of a swimming pool if desired, for which plans have been drawn up for new owners, and would further elevate the property’s glamorous appeal.

The quality of the renovation extends well beyond aesthetics, with significant upgrades including new plumbing and electrics throughout, an air source heat pump, wet-system heating, underfloor heating to the principal living areas and selected bathrooms, together with new windows, doors and roof, fully ensuring this superb home is as efficient and comfortable, as it is beautifully designed.

Occupying a generous corner plot at the end of an exclusive residential close of just 10 detached homes, Lavington enjoys wraparound lawns with mature planting, ample outdoor space and parking for 7 vehicles, together with plentiful unrestricted roadside parking. Elevated in position, the house enjoys distant views across St Aubin’s Bay and the lights of St Helier from the rear whilst the waves of St Brelades bay can be heard from the front bedrooms when the swell is up. The location combines tranquillity with exceptional convenience, being moments from Hackett’s Farm, Waitrose, M&S, regular bus routes and access to a wealth of coastal walks. St Brelade’s Bay, Ouaisné, St Aubin, the Railway Walk and the sand dunes of St Ouen are all within comfortable distance, making this one of Jersey’s most desirable residential settings, offering great accessibility and an enviable lifestyle.
