House to renovate in Normandy with separate stone barn and nearly 4 acres. Views over surrounding countryside.

The property comprises a detached house which requires complete renovation as it has not been lived in for over 30 years.  The land is gently sloping and could be used for ponies or a smallholding.  The inside has been stripped out ready for renovation and planning permission has been granted to create a 3 bedroom house and 1 bedroom attached gîte with a habitable surface area of 194m2.  Viewing is recommended.

It is situated in the southwest of Normandy, near the borders of Manche and Calvados, about 5 kilometers 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 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, 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.
