Le Mont Saint Farm (Fay and Oliver’s Place)

This award-winning historic farmhouse conversion brings together our passion for Old + New

The story of the listed buildings is told honestly whilst a new chapter is carved out of the Victorian rear barn, creating a wonderfully light and airy space. The design rejects the traditional ‘barn conversion’ and instead creates a nuanced modern building, with fun, bright 21st century family spaces, whilst ‘framing’ historic features and details from all phases in a philosophically ‘honest’ way.

Le Mont Saint Farm was awarded Best Renovation over 250K and the People’s Choice awards at the 2018 Guernsey Design Awards.
