Farmhouse to modernise in Normandy with room to extend into adjoining barns and about 1 1/2 acres.

The property is in a quiet rural hamlet with an open outlook over fields.  It benefits from partial double glazing and gas central heating.  The house has been insulated but will require further modernisation and redecoration.  Viewing recommended.

The house is accessible from any of the northern ports within 1-2 hours (St Malo, Cherbourg or Caen). It is a four hour journey from Calais if you prefer to come from that direction.  The nearest servicable airport is Deauville [DOL].  The property is situated in a very peaceful rural setting, equidistant from Sourdeval, Vire and Tinchebray.  Tinchebray is a short 5 minute drive away where there are restaurants, bakery’s, a lake and supermarket can be found. Several great beaches are easily reached within an hour including Granville.  There are several nearby disused railway tracks that are great for walks or cycling.
