Description

Written by Le Rossignol Estates, reproduced in full.

Some homes have character. Others have a story. Broadlands Barn has both.

Steeped in Jersey’s agricultural heritage, this exceptional four bedroom former cider barn has been thoughtfully transformed into a substantial family residence, combining centuries of history with the space, comfort and practicality of modern living.

Extending to approximately 3,512 sq ft (326 sq m) across two floors, Broadlands Barn is a home of impressive proportions, where original architectural features, exposed timber beams and generous living spaces create an atmosphere that is both distinctive and welcoming.

Once part of a traditional Jersey working farm, the building’s history stretches back centuries. Original structural timbers, including an A-frame reportedly bearing the date 1770, remain a wonderful reminder of its past. The barn was extensively converted in the early 2000s, with its remarkable transformation featured in the Jersey Evening Post’s Homes & Gardens supplement in 2004.

Whilst preserving the charm and architectural character of its agricultural past, the property was extensively reconstructed using modern cavity wall construction, with water based underfloor heating installed throughout both the ground and first floors. This thoughtful approach to the conversion brings together the character of a historic Jersey building with the comfort and practicality expected of a modern family home.

At the heart of the home is an impressive living room, where a substantial granite fireplace, exposed beams and beautiful timber flooring create an inviting setting for relaxing or entertaining. The character continues through the striking entrance hall, with its minstrel’s gallery overlooking the space below, providing an architectural feature rarely encountered in contemporary homes.

The generous accommodation has been thoughtfully arranged for family life, with a spacious kitchen, separate utility room and four well proportioned bedrooms. The en suite facilities were upgraded to contemporary wet rooms approximately four years ago, bringing modern convenience to this historic setting.

Throughout the property, the combination of traditional materials, original architectural details and generous proportions creates a home that feels both substantial and individual.

Outside, Broadlands Barn offers an equally appealing setting for family life and entertaining. Approximately 140 sq m of Indian sandstone paving provides an extensive area for outdoor dining, summer gatherings and relaxation, complemented by lawned gardens to the front and side of the property.

The generous external space is matched by excellent practicality, with parking for approximately five vehicles and a garage benefiting from planning permission for conversion into a playroom. The vendor confirms that works have already commenced under the permission, offering the opportunity for a future owner to complete the conversion, subject to confirmation of its planning status.

Situated in the sought after parish of St John, Broadlands Barn is conveniently positioned for local amenities, village life and nearby bus connections, while enjoying access to the beautiful countryside and coastline of Jersey’s northern parishes.

With its fascinating history, impressive accommodation and wonderful sense of individuality, Broadlands Barn offers something increasingly difficult to find: a substantial family home with genuine character, a remarkable past and the flexibility to accommodate modern family life.

A home with a story worth discovering.
