A bedsit in town is the cheapest property you'll find on the market in Jersey and is only £24,872,000 less than the most expensive mansion in the Island.
The studio ground floor apartment in Val Plaisant will still set you back £128,000 - three times what you'd pay for a three-bedroomed house in some parts of the North-east of England.
The studio apartment near St Thomas's Church is on the market with a few agents including Le Gallais and Broadlands and boasts its own entrance, a bedroom-come-lounge, separate kitchen and shower room. Pictured below is the lounge, which doubles up as a bedroom and measures 15ft 10 inches by nine feet. The kitchen is just seven feet six inches by five feet five inches. All in all the property totals 46 square metres.
Le Gallais Estates negotiator Kate Warren said: "It's the lowest priced property we've had on our books in the last 18 months."
The tiny basement apartment has now gone under offer with Broadlands.
Negotiator Joanna Sheppard said: "At that price it is an easy way to get on the housing market instead of spending money renting. it is really nice and if that's the money you have to spend it is a good home."
Jersey's most expensive house ever made the headlines earlier this week when the JEP reported that Maison de la Valette in Trinity has gone on the market for a whopping £25million. The mansion, set in 18 acres of land, took five years to build and is billed by Wilsons estate agents as "one of the finest private residences to have been created in Britain in recent years."
