The "2024 prices" column carries each past price forward at the island-wide repeat-sales index — the same money at today's market level, not a valuation of this specific property. It takes no account of the condition the property was in at each sale, or any work done to it since.
Not marked as sole agency on the original listing, so this property may also be marketed by other agents not captured in this data.

Nearest match in each category, from a fixed list of Jersey amenities — not every pub, café or shop on the island, so treat this as a useful sample, not a complete picture. Distances are straight-line ("as the crow flies"), multiplied by 1.3 to approximate real road-network distance — this is an estimate, not turn-by-turn routing, and actual walking/driving routes may differ. Times assume constant average speeds appropriate to Jersey's roads and 40mph limits: walking 4.5 km/h, cycling 14 km/h, driving 30 km/h — not open-road speeds, and they don't account for traffic, parking or terrain.
Getting connected
Jersey has two residential broadband providers: JT — the island's own former state telecom, now Jersey's full-fibre network builder — and Sure, which completed absorbing Airtel-Vodafone's Channel Islands customer base in September 2025 (Airtel-Vodafone no longer trades as a separate operator here). Jersey's copper phone network is largely already history: JT finished building an island-wide fibre-to-the-home network back in July 2018 and has been retiring copper ever since — well ahead of Guernsey, where the equivalent copper switch-off was still under way through 2026. Always confirm actual coverage and switch-over status at this specific address directly with JT or Sure before assuming.
What would improving it be worth?
Every row assumes a house with its own roof and its own plot — a flat doesn't normally have exclusive control of either, so extensions, loft conversions and annexes aren't options in the way they are for a house, whatever the price-per-m² arithmetic might suggest. Treat this as not applicable to Bonne Nuit, St. John, St. John.

This address may match Bonne Nuit Harbour (ref JN0042, Listed Building Grade 1) on the Government of Jersey's Historic Environment Record — and 2 other possible register entries nearby. Listed status is a real legal constraint: under the Planning and Building (Jersey) Law 2002, alterations, extensions and demolition of a listed building or place typically need Listed Building Consent, on top of ordinary planning permission.
Matched by address text against this site's own listed buildings register — a likely match by address, not a certified check. Confirm the exact listed status with the official gov.je record or the Government of Jersey's planning department before making an offer or planning any work.

Matched by house name/street and parish against the Places.je property transaction register — not a unique-ID lookup, so a shared house name could span more than one property. The "2024 prices" column carries each price forward at the island-wide repeat-sales index — it is what that sum of money would be at today's market level, not a valuation of this property, and it takes no account of the condition it was in then or any work done since.

Estimate the cost of work you're considering
No live planning permission is on file for this address, so there's nothing to price directly — pick the kind of work you're weighing up instead, using the same cost ranges this site applies to real Jersey planning applications.
The work type shown is inferred automatically from the wording of the planning application's own description — it isn't stated by the applicant. The base cost range comes from published UK national renovation/build-cost guides for that type of project, and a ~25% uplift has been added to reflect higher shipping/import and skilled-labour costs in the Channel Islands — this is an estimate, not a published index. These figures are indicative only, not a quote: actual cost depends on specification, finish, ground conditions and the contractor. For anything serious, get a quote from a local quantity surveyor or builder.
See the 27 architects, structural engineers and builders working in Jersey. This can't be narrowed to firms who've filed nearby this property or this parish — Jersey's planning register carries no applicant, agent or architect field to match against (see the professionals directory).
