Detached house with gîte, beautiful gardens, paddocks and outbuildings
This property offers further potential to extend in to the adjoining garages if required, subject to obtaining the necessary planning permission. The gîte is rented out for 60€ per night. The layout of the garden and paddocks give a very pleasant outlook from the property. The property benefits from double glazed windows and the majority was re-wired in 2006. The accommodation is very versatile and would lend itself to either generating an additional income or for a relative or teenager. Viewing is recommended.

The beaches on the west coast are an hour’s drive away and the property is approximately 80 minutes drive from the port of Caen and an hour and forty minutes from Cherbourg. The D-Day landing beaches and the Mont St Michel are about an hour’s drive away.
