Countryside house, barn and gîte with 1.5 acres in Normandy
The property stands in a south-facing position in a quiet rural hamlet with a pleasant garden, large barn, orchard and old bakery which was used as a one room house some years ago – it would require renovating for use as a gîte. The house itself is clean and tidy but would benefit from modernisation. Viewing is highly recommended.
The house is situated near a village with a shop and 2 minutes drive from the small town of Saint Pois with every day amenities and school. It is 15 minutes drive to the market town of Sourdeval and 15 minutes drive to Vire and Brécey. The Lac de la Dathée, ideal for walking, fishing and boating, and an 18 hole golf course are within 10 minutes drive as is the Saint Sever forest. It is situated in the southwest of Normandy, near the borders of Manche and Calvados. The beaches on the west coast are an hour’s drive away and it is approximately 80 minutes drive from the port of Caen and an hour and forty minutes from Cherbourg.
