Introducing Maison Friquettes.
An Exceptionally Crafted Eco Home in One of Jersey's Most Exclusive Family Settings.
Maison Friquettes is more than a beautiful home. It is a thoughtfully designed family estate where architecture, sustainability and nature exist in perfect balance. Beautifully private, exceptionally efficient and unlike anything else currently available in Jersey, this is a home designed not only for today, but for generations to come.
Set within approximately one acre of beautifully landscaped grounds, Maison Friquettes is a remarkably crafted home where exceptional architecture, sustainable design and family living come together in perfect harmony. Offered to the market for the very first time since its completion in 2012, this is a home designed to embrace its surroundings. A dramatic south-east elevation of floor-to-ceiling glazing captures breathtaking countryside views, filling the interiors with natural light from sunrise through to early afternoon while creating a constant connection with the changing seasons. Peacefully positioned on a quiet country lane, yet less than ten minutes from St. Helier, the property enjoys a rare balance of complete privacy and everyday convenience. Even more unique is its direct boundary with St. Michael's School, one of only a handful of homes to share this privileged setting.
Sustainable by Design.
Designed around open-concept living, the home centres on a dramatic double-height reception with a mezzanine overlooking the principal living space. Floor-to-ceiling glazing fills the interiors with natural light, framing uninterrupted countryside views. A bespoke kitchen by a French cabinetmaker features solid oak cabinetry, Miele appliances and a La Canche range cooker, while the CorTen-steel surrounded wood burning stove fireplace with bbq attachment to utilise for cooking. Built to exceptional eco standards, Maison Friquettes combines SIPs construction, triple-glazed windows, an air source heat pump, solar thermal panels, smartphone-controlled underfloor heating, mechanical heat recovery and a greywater harvesting system to deliver year-round comfort with remarkably low running costs.
Grounds to Explore.
The grounds have been designed as an extension of the home itself. Expansive lawns, an apple and pear orchard, raised vegetable gardens, grazing areas, mature planting and a gentle stream create an idyllic setting for family life. Whether children are exploring outdoors, collecting fresh produce from the garden or simply enjoying the changing seasons, every corner of the grounds encourages a slower pace of life and a deeper connection with nature.
A Setting Like No Other.
One of the property's most remarkable features is its location. Bordering the grounds of St. Michael's School, children can walk directly from the garden to school, while parents enjoy the peace and privacy of a countryside setting just minutes from the island's capital. With spectacular sunrises, clear moonrises and uninterrupted rural views, Maison Friquettes offers an ever-changing backdrop rarely found so close to town.
A Home with Vision.
The property benefits from approved planning permission to create an impressive 6,000 sq ft, six-bedroom residence, allowing future owners to expand without the uncertainty of a new planning application. Whether enjoyed exactly as it stands or enhanced for generations to come, Maison Friquettes represents an exceptional long-term family home.
