Life Above the Coast at One of Jersey’s Most Remarkable Estates, Highcliff
Overview
High above Jersey’s dramatic north coast with uninterrupted views stretching to France, Highcliff is a £9,950,000 estate that offers historic influence with modern luxury. Spread across 15 acres of landscaped grounds, woodland and equestrian land, the property enjoys an exceptional relationship with both the countryside and coastline.
As Hannah notes during the tour, “It is very rare to find a property that has coastal views, land, and private equestrian fields.” This immediately makes Highcliff stand out.

A New Chapter for a Historic Home
The home began as a 19th-century granite farmhouse and has been carefully restored and extended while preserving its listed façade. While the interiors have been updated for modern family living, the original sash windows, Jersey granite stonework, and a grand entryway gives the home that vintage vibe.
Inside, a sweeping staircase, detailed panelling and warm timber finishes establish what Hannah describes as “a great balance of splendour and comfort.”
A Contemporary Take on the Country Kitchen
The vaulted kitchen perfectly captures the estate’s combination of old and new. Bespoke cabinetry, marble worktops and traditional styling create a family-friendly hub.
“It feels much more family orientated” Hannah says. “Everyone’s piling in around here.”
The adjoining utility and boot room bring the same level of care and consideration to everyday tasks, prompting one of her most memorable observations: “This is where all of life’s little moments are happening that you take for granted, but that make a house a home.”
Elegant Yet Inviting Living Spaces
Charm from the past and modern convenience come together in the reception rooms. The formal dining room features chandeliers, a marble fireplace and rich, warming tones, while the family room centres around an original 18th-century fireplace with a wood-burning stove.
Despite integrated technology throughout the house, traditional features remain the focus. As Hannah points out, “That is your focal point. This is your original 18th century fireplace.”
Principal Suites with Hotel-Like Appeal
Two principal suites occupy the first floor, each featuring fireplaces, dressing rooms and luxurious ensuite bathrooms. The main suite feels particularly refined, with soft neutral tones, generous spaces and a freestanding bath positioned to enjoy the views.
Describing the space as “five-star luxury boutique hotel” living, Hannah highlights the effortless luxury feel that runs throughout the home.
Upstairs, two additional bedrooms beneath exposed beams offer a more relaxed and playful atmosphere while maintaining the same high-quality finishes.
Guest Accommodation and Outdoor Living
Separate from the main house, a two-bedroom guest house provides stylish independent accommodation with vaulted ceilings, skylights and contemporary interiors. Whether used for guests, staff or home offices, it offers exceptional flexibility.
Outside, a 15-metre heated swimming pool is accompanied by a fully equipped pool house designed for entertaining. Nearby stables and private equestrian fields further highlight the estate’s appeal, particularly for horse lovers seeking both land and sea views.
The Best of Jersey
What makes Highcliff exceptional is its ability to combine several lifestyles in one property. It is a country estate, a coastal retreat and a modern family home all at once. Rolling lawns lead towards Bonne Nuit Bay, and the elevated sea views provide the constant connection to the landscape.
Standing above the coastline, it is easy to understand Hannah’s closing thoughts: “Jersey is just the best place to live.” Highcliff makes a compelling case for why.
