Detached house with large garden and super views

This property is in a small hamlet and benefits from super views.  The garden is over 1 1/4 acres and there are many fruit trees and a small paddock.  The property is habitable but could benefit from some modernisation.  Viewing is  recommended.

It is situated in the southwest of Normandy, near the borders of Manche and Calvados,  approx. 10kms from Sourdeval, the nearest town. Only a few minutes drive away, the town offers every amenity including two banks and supermarkets. Market day is held every Tuesday morning, as is the livestock market. The village of Gathemo is about 7.5km from the property and has a bakery, bar and shop.  The major city of Vire is only 19km from the house and offers all amenities including a railway station with a direct train to Paris.  The beaches on the west coast are an hour’s drive away and Sourdeval is approximately 80 minutes drive from the port of Caen and an hour and forty minutes from Cherbourg. A little further afield are the D-Day landing beaches, and the Mont St Michel. The Lac de la Dathée, ideal for walking, fishing and boating, and an 18 hole golf course are within 15 minutes drive,  as is the Saint Sever forest.
