Message From The Seller

“Due to changes in family circumstances we’re selling our lovely French property.  It’s a very large property with land and outbuildings. We’ve enjoyed many wonderful family holidays there over the years; I especially remember our family parties in the big games area.  There’s so much space in fact when we have had people stay with us we used the study on the first floor as a 4th bedroom with twin beds  which always worked well.  The property has so much potential due to its location and size and I’m sure someone will see this as a great opportunity and continue to develop it and create many happy memories as we have done.

To keep running costs low, we often lived in the old house rather than using energy to heat the vast areas not being regularly occupied.”

Large family house for renovation with great potential and over an acre

This substantial detached property is in an accessible position and has been used previously as a dwelling with attached buildings used for a Dépôt Vente/Antiques business and a massive Games Room.  There is about an acre and a quarter of land. It could be used for a large family, someone wishing to work from home or converted into gîtes. Viewing is recommended to appreciate the potential of the property.

The property is situated near the Normandy and Loire Valley border in the Mayenne department.  It is 56 km from Laval with its mainline train station which gives easy access to Paris and 419 km from Calais.  The renowned thermal Spa town of Bagnoles-de-l’Orne is 11 km away and the larger town of La Ferté-Macé is 17 km.  The UNESCO heritage site of Mont-Saint-Michel is about an hour and a half’s drive.  It is 123 km from the ferry Port at Caen Ouistreham and 187 km from Cherbourg.
