A Turnkey Home on the Coast of Guernsey

October 17, 2025

Our newest case study follows the Foin’s journey to create a bespoke family home in the Channel Islands.

Guernsey Self Build

Unable to find a suitable property for their multi-generational family on the island of Guernsey, Mr and Mrs Foin felt that commissioning a bespoke new build home was the obvious answer.

To satisfy the requirements of their two teenage children, their parents, and a 5-year-old Cavapoo, the couple sought to create a space that allowed for separation of living areas but was designed in a way that felt like one cohesive home.

The pair were fortunate enough to discover a local architect who knew of a property in their favourite area on the island that hadn’t yet come onto the market.

The location, just a few minutes’ walk from the gorgeous Guernsey coastline, was perfect.

The architect had already submitted a pre-planning application for the previous owner which had been positively received, so the couple were confident that they could obtain permission for their own scheme.
