Detached house with garden and outbuildings within walking distance of a bar/restaurant

This detached house enjoys over half an acre of level garden with 3 outbuildings.  It is on the edge of a village, and within walking distance of Juvigny-le-Têtre with a range of every day amenities.  It has  double glazed windows and 2 woodburners and cottage style living accommodation.  There is scope to re-organise the first floor living accommodation to make a larger second bedroom and another bedroom.  It would benefit from some TLC.  Viewing is highly recommended.

The property is situated in the southwest of Normandy, near the borders of Manche and Calvados,  a few 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.
