SITUATION:   7C
Hivernage is situated on a quiet, non-through road on the West coast of Sark. It has views over Pilcher Monument and the islands of Guernsey and Herm. The house is close to the protected area of the Gosselin Headland, well-known for its birdlife and flora. The main village is just a short cycle ride away, yet the area is not a busy part of Sark.

Sark is located about nine miles east of Guernsey and twenty three miles north of Jersey with access only permissible by boat with regular ferries to Guernsey and Jersey where there are international airports. Flight time to Gatwick is about thirty minutes by jet.

SARK: 
Sark is spectacular in both its scenery and its simplicity; its tranquil beauty is unmarred by cars and yet enhanced by excellent modern facilities and telecommunications for residents and visitors alike. Sark is self-governing through ‘Chief Pleas’ and is presided over by the Seigneur. Transport on Sark is restricted to the horse and carriage, the bicycle and ‘shanks pony’. Tractors are, however, allowed by licence for general farm work, carting of goods from the harbour, and personal transport by arrangement. Everyday shopping facilities are available on Sark together with a selection of excellent hotels, restaurants and public houses. There are 2 churches, a school catering for children to the age of 15, a busy Island Hall where the strong sense of a lively community ensures many interesting social events are organised.

TAXATION:
Sark does not levy any income tax, property gains tax, capital gains tax, value-added-tax tax or inheritance tax on its residents. Other local taxes are very moderate.

THE HOUSE:
The house is just 20 years old, so the fittings are in excellent order with good provisions. There is a fitted water filter, which can be very easily maintained. The garden and house have views over the stunning west coast. There is substantial space surrounding this property with a workroom and potting shed. This is one of the largest open market properties on the market. The house boasts extensive ground and 1st floor living accommodation with a generous dining area and separate lounge, with a gas fuelled fire. The property offers comfortable family accommodation with unrivalled sea views.
