A property with 'presence' and 'grand standing' - little used phrases nowadays but fully justified in the case of this very spacious 1930's built detached family home, which stands to the rear of a large plot and set well back from the public road in this exclusive and much sought after 'Bon Air Lane' location - 'school runs' could be a thing of the past, with all the major colleges around Mont Millais and Wellington Road being just around the corner, and, for parents working in St Helier, the town centre is also within easy walking distance.

A driveway approach leads up to the house, with garaging and parking beyond to the rear of the site. A spacious reception hall gives access to splendidly proportioned reception rooms with large picture windows overlooking a delightful mature and very sunny garden. There are up to five reception rooms on the ground floor, although one would be very suitable to turn into a fourth bedroom suite if required. A spacious kitchen with an oil fired range provides a family gathering/eating area - the heart of the home!

Upstairs there are presently three large bedrooms - the main bedroom giving on to a day room/office/dressing room with bathroom off. The two other bedrooms share the family bathroom although it would be easy to provide en-suite bathrooms for all rooms if required.

This property has been exceptionally well maintained by the present owners over the past 40+ years but is now perhaps a little dated - it is now time to allow new owners to personalise and create their own style in this wonderful family home. This location seldom comes on the market - be quick to view!
