Phillippa Dalby-Welsh, head of Savills' country department, described Havilland Hall as a "pre-eminent Channel Island estate" and said estates of this scale were "extraordinarily rare in the Channel Islands and it is likely to draw a global audience." Nick Paluch, head of Savills' Guernsey open market residential business, called it "a once in a generation opportunity."
