Description



This is the house of your dreams!

Located just a five-minute drive from the town of Alençon, in the department of Orne, this magnificent 15th-century country house offers enormous potential for living your French dream!

Not only does this house offer five bedrooms, but it also has two integrated studios (with private locked access) that have already been rented to university students, as well as a completely separate and recently renovated one-bedroom gîte.

AND... it offers 3 hectares of pasture and wooded land, 4 horse boxes and a landscaped garden.



Entering the house through the private enclosed garden at the rear of the property, you come directly into a family room with a large pool table and a wood-burning stove. Turning right, you come to the bright and fully equipped kitchen, and then to the glass-enclosed dining room, whose doors open fully onto the garden to let in the summer air. The dining room gives the impression of being outside while offering the comfort of being indoors. Access to the oil-fired boiler room and cupboard.

From the entrance on the left, you enter a magnificent spacious and airy living room with a huge open fireplace, exposed beams, double aspect windows and a tiled floor. One cannot help but be impressed by the proportions and history present in this room. It is thought to have been built during the Hundred Years War (1337-1453) and its architecture shows signs of having been built by English architects. There are many original features, including a stone sewing corner and a stone washbasin on the boundary wall. After this room, you enter a cosy dining room with a sideboard built into the wall. Access to the upper floor with toilet.

Further on from the dining room, you can now enter the separate studios. One on the ground floor and one on the first floor.

There are three staircases to the upper floor. One leads directly to the upstairs studio. The other gives access to the private family accommodation upstairs, comprising five bedrooms, one with en-suite bathroom. Separate toilet and adjacent shower room. Each room has uninterrupted views of the garden, with plenty of light and original features.



The gîte in the gardens offers comfortable accommodation. With an open-plan living/dining room, beautiful stone floor, equipped kitchen, shower room and generously proportioned double bedroom.



The garden of this property offers peace and tranquillity. With its mature trees, landscaped areas and the proposed land, this property offers many possibilities for use.

Are you looking to move to start a new adventure? Do you want to earn money by working from home, offering bed and breakfast accommodation, or renting a gîte? This house really offers you this possibility, plus you have land for your animals, and it's only a five-minute drive to the centre of the lively town of Alençon, where you can find a direct train to Paris.
