Large detached stone barn to renovate near Sourdeval

Planning permission was originally passed in 2008 to renovate this large barn (formerly a house with barns attached) into a pair of semi-detached houses with garages and garden.  Internally work was started to build a block skin within the existing stone walls and lay a concrete floor. Some joists were put in for the first floor. An all water septic tank was also installed. The property stands in a quiet rural hamlet on a small access lane.  There is nearly 3/4 acre of garden.  Viewing is recommended to appreciate the potential of this property.

It is situated in the southwest of Normandy, near the borders of Manche and Calvados,  3.5 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.
