Magnificent cottage on site of the old train station in Gorey Village. The Jersey Eastern Railway began its service from St Helier to Grouville on 6 August 1873. A few weeks later on Wednesday, 27 August, the line was extended to Gorey Village and this building served as the station. Eighteen years later the line was added to further as far as Gorey Pier, opening in May 1891. The service ran for more than 50 years, until its closure in 1929. In 2003 Antler Properties redeveloped the site which involved taking the building back to the bare shell.
In keeping with the theme, the resulting cottage has various features including a railway style board showing the house name, and a patio going to the side of the original platform. The finish is to a very high standard with features including natural slate floor tiles throughout the ground floor and stylish windows befitting the character of the building.
A stunning house with oodles of character and an exciting history ideal for a couple or single person. Although it only has the one bedroom, the house is more spacious that first impressions suggest. Contact the owner's sole agent now to view.

Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength
Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:
Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
