Description
The property is accessed via a country lane ending in a private driveway which leads to the bridge over the river and then into a private driveway with plenty of space to park many vehicles. Each property has its own garden area, separate from the other properties. Externally, the 3-acre lake with its island in the middle is stunningly beautiful and is well-stocked with mainly carp (4-20+kg), tench, bream etc with no catfish. There is good access all around the lake and there are many mature trees – ideal for the open fire in the former mill. The river borders one side of the property and is not linked to the lake – the lake has closed water status. The further side of the lake consists of a protected wetland which provides all sorts of interesting wildlife. The remaining land is prairie.
The former mill offers plenty of rustic charm with period features as well as modern comforts. The property consists of an entrance hall with small, fitted kitchen, laundry room with WC, bedroom with ensuite bathroom and a sitting room / dining room with part cathedral ceiling to make the most of the original stone fireplace. A staircase then leads up to a mezzanine area and landing, offering on to a shower room, WC, study (currently used as a bedroom), and bedroom. The large gîte offers a good-sized kitchen / dining room, a separate laundry or fishing room with WC, a large shower room, bedroom, and sunroom on the ground floor. The first floor offers a large mezzanine, which could be easily converted into a further bedroom, a large bedroom, a bathroom, WC and ensuite bedroom. This property’s stunning covered terrace, overlooking the land as well as the small lake, and provides a fishing opportunity for those with reduced mobility. The ground floor of this house is adapted for wheelchair users.
Accessed from the covered terrace overlooking the large lake, the smaller gîte provides a sitting room / dining room, bedroom and shower room with separate laundry room on the ground floor. The first floor offers a mezzanine, ideal as a second bedroom.
This property is situated a short drive from a rural village with small co-operative shop and hairdresser and is close to other villages with plenty of shops and businesses and even an English tearoom for afternoon tea! Within easy reach of Saint-Malo, Caen Ouistréham and Cherbourg as well as being less than a 5 hour drive from the Channel Tunnel, this property provides the ideal turnkey gîte business with room for the owner’s accommodation too.
