*on sales agreed before 14th February
The developer of the historic Ebenezer Church in Brock Road, St Peter Port, is offering islanders an extraordinary opportunity to save thousands on document duty when you purchase one of these iconic church apartments.
Jonathan Ruff of JAJ Properties has said the business will pay the document duty on any completed sale, if your offer is accepted by 14th February.
‘It’s a tough market with interest rates being high, and I feel the best way to help buyers is to help towards their costs. With document duty being the highest cost after their deposit, I am hoping this will help buyers as there is a lot less day-one cash to spend on their purchase.’
This is your chance to own a piece of Guernsey history. The original church has been beautifully developed and restored offering modern living whilst still retaining stunning character features throughout. The apartments are filled with natural light and many offer vaulted ceilings, exposed beams and feature church-style windows, some with stained glass.
Each apartment is unique and must be viewed internally to appreciate all they have to offer. Set in a central St. Peter location, with the advantage of off-street parking, these apartments will appeal to a multitude of buyers.
‘I have a passion for developing churches, this is the fifth church I have converted, so when I was offered the church I had to go for it and I have to say it’s the most impressive church I have developed to date,’ said Mr Ruff.
Swoffers director, Spencer Noyon, added: ‘This is a fantastic opportunity, particularly for first-time buyers to secure a property now, whereas they might ordinarily have had to save for a bit longer to have the funds behind them for these sorts of ancillary costs.’
The Brock Road Methodist Church opened on the current site on 10 October 1878 and took the Ebenezer name in 1960. The last service at Ebenezer Methodist Church was held in July 1993 and it was first sold for redevelopment in 2012.
