What the numbers on this listing say
- Across 150 sales in the last 24 months that this site could match to their own asking price, Guernsey property achieved a median 87.1% of asking. At that median this one would go for about £579,485 — a distribution, not a prediction for this property. See the full spread.
- New to this site 4 days ago. Little negotiating history has built up yet.
- Marketed by 2 agents at once. That is a fact about how it is being sold, not proof of anything about the seller — but it does mean more than one route to the same property. Compare what each says.
- Local Market. Local Market property requires residential qualification to occupy. How the two markets differ.
Assembled from this site's own record of the listing and the States of Guernsey sold-price register. It deliberately makes no recommendation and no valuation — it reports what is measurable and leaves the judgement to you.
What this purchase costs beyond the asking price
If this will not be your principal private residence — a second home or a buy-to-let — an additional 2% per band applies, taking the duty to £33,650. Advocates conventionally attribute 2.5% of the price to contents, which carries no duty; on that basis the figure would be about £19,685. The headline above deliberately assumes no such attribution, because understating it is the error that costs you money on completion. Bands are those published for real property conveyances — check the current rules on gov.gg or ask your advocate for the figure that actually applies. This site is not a tax adviser and takes no fee from anyone named on this page.
What it would cost each month
Starts from 5.10% — 5 year fixed rate up to 90% loan to value, published by SPF Private Clients (Channel Islands) Ltd and read by this site on 2026-08-23. See every rate they publish, or change the figure above. It is their published rate, not an offer to you: lenders apply their own income multiples and status checks. This site is paid nothing by any lender or broker and gives no advice. Document duty is calculated from the published band scale; everything else follows from the numbers you type.
Getting connected
Guernsey's copper telephone network is being retired at the end of 2026, and every property on the island is expected to be connectable to the fibre network. In practice that means a purchase completing now will be a fibre connection, and a landline-only arrangement will not survive the switch-off — worth settling before moving day rather than after it.
Three providers sell residential broadband here: Sure, JT, Airtel-Vodafone. Airtel-Vodafone was acquired by Sure in November 2024, so the market is more concentrated than three names suggest.
This site has no per-address availability feed and so makes no claim about the speed or price at this property — check with a provider against the actual address before you rely on it. No provider pays this site anything, and these are ordinary links, not referrals.
What would improving it be worth?
Value added is the extra floor area priced at £6,093/m² — the midpoint asking price per m² among 58 St Peter Port properties currently for sale that publish a floor area. Cost uses real Guernsey build rates: £4,000–£6,000/m² new build and £2,000–£4,000/m² refurbishment, depending on quality. Net is against the mid rate. The last column is how often Guernsey actually grants that kind of application.
| Improvement | Value it might add | Likely cost | Net | Granted |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Add a bedroom (single-storey extension) A modest double plus circulation, built new. ~14 m² |
£85,300 | £70,000 14 m² · mid spec new build range £56,000–£84,000 |
+£15,300 | 97% (1,510) |
| Loft conversion with a bedroom Works inside an existing roof, so it prices as refurbishment rather than new build — which is why it usually wins. ~20 m² |
£121,857 | £60,000 20 m² · mid spec refurb range £40,000–£80,000 |
+£61,857 | 97% (148) |
| Two-storey extension Roughly 14 m² on each of two floors. ~28 m² |
£170,600 | £140,000 28 m² · mid spec new build range £112,000–£168,000 |
+£30,600 | 93% (86) |
| Garage, annexe or outbuilding Detached space is worth less per m² than main-house floor area. ~18 m² |
£65,803 | £90,000 18 m² · mid spec new build range £72,000–£108,000 |
−£24,197 | 90% (738) |
Two things it cannot see. First, it prices floor area at the local average rate — it doesn't know your plot, your roof, your outlook, or whether an extension is physically possible; nor whether your street has a ceiling price that no amount of extending beats. Second, the rate comes from asking prices of other properties currently for sale, because Guernsey's sold register records no floor areas at all — so it reflects what sellers ask, not what buyers paid.
The obvious alternative method is worse, which is why it isn't used here: comparing a typical 3-bed with a typical 4-bed suggests a bedroom is worth around £430,000 island-wide. It isn't — a 4-bed is generally a bigger house on a bigger plot, so that figure measures the mix of what's for sale, not the value of adding a room.

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.
