Nearest match in each category, from a fixed list of Guernsey amenities — not every pub, café or shop on the island, so treat this as a useful sample, not a complete picture. Distances are straight-line ("as the crow flies"), multiplied by 1.3 to approximate real road-network distance — this is an estimate, not turn-by-turn routing, and actual walking/driving routes may differ. Times assume constant average speeds appropriate to Guernsey's roads and 25/35mph limits: walking 4.5 km/h, cycling 14 km/h, driving 30 km/h — not open-road speeds, and they don't account for traffic, parking or terrain.
Telecoms masts nearby
- 600 m — Off La Marette Road, monopole, 12m (Airtel)
Measured by the regulator at 0.855% of the ICNIRP public exposure guideline. - 643 m — Ronez Quarry, Les Vardes, rooftop, 14m (Airtel, JT, Sure)
Measured by the regulator at 0.222% of the ICNIRP public exposure guideline.
The nearest licensed mast site is 600 m away in a straight line — not walking distance, and not necessarily visible from the property. From the Guernsey Competition and Regulatory Authority’s mast audit register, read 2026-08-23.
It does not say which masts carry 5G. The regulator’s register records the operators, the height, the structure and the measured emissions — it records no radio technology, so this site cannot identify a 5G site and does not guess. 5G reached Guernsey in early 2026 and the first sites were in and around St Peter Port.
The emission figures are the regulator’s own measurements, expressed as a percentage of the ICNIRP international public exposure guideline. Across all 91 sites in the Bailiwick the median reading is 0.176% of that guideline and the highest is 11.24%. This site reports those numbers and draws no conclusion from them either way; the GCRA publishes the full audit for each site.
A flat owner owns the inside of the flat — not the roof above it, the ground beside it, or the right to build on either. Adding a bedroom, converting the loft or putting up an outbuilding are not options here whatever they might be worth, so they are not costed. Internal work — reconfiguring, refitting a kitchen or bathroom, replacing windows where the lease and the building allow — is a different question, and one this site has no data to price.

Matched by house name/street and parish against the States of Guernsey property register — not a unique-ID lookup, so a shared house name could span more than one property. The "2026 prices" column carries each price forward at the island-wide repeat-sales index — it is what that sum of money would be at today's market level, not a valuation of this property, and it takes no account of the condition it was in then or any work done since.

Matched by house name/street and parish against Guernsey planning applications decided between 25 Aug 2021 and 2 Jul 2026 — coverage is partial and not a unique-ID lookup. No bare decision date is available in this data, so the application number (which embeds its year) is shown instead. Where a "Worked on by" name appears, it's a known architect or surveyor cross-referenced by the same application number — worth a call before commissioning a fresh survey.

Estimated cost of live planning permissions
Guernsey planning permissions lapse 3 years after grant if unbuilt; these applications fall inside that window and were not refused, so they are presumptively still capable of being implemented.

The work type shown is inferred automatically from the wording of the planning application's own description — it isn't stated by the applicant. The base cost range comes from published UK national renovation/build-cost guides for that type of project, and a ~25% uplift has been added to reflect higher shipping/import and skilled-labour costs in the Channel Islands — this is an estimate, not a published index. These figures are indicative only, not a quote: actual cost depends on specification, finish, ground conditions and the contractor. For anything serious, get a quote from a local quantity surveyor or builder.
