Normandy, Manche, Gavray-sur-Sienne, France

Detached house with 2 gîtes and annexe, outbuildings and over 5 hectares

The property is believed to have been built in 1866.  It offers versatile accommodation which can be used as a four bedroom family house with an attached one bedroom bungalow and attached 2 bedroom gîte - this accommodation is all intercommunicating.  The Annexe has a separate entrance.  It would lend itself to use by an extended family, or to those wishing to earn an income from letting.  It benefits from new double glazed windows, partial re-wiring and a new roof on the bungalow. There is just under 13.5 acres of grazing land.  The field is in one large parcel and could be used for grazing for horses and with access to the river Sienne, ideal for fishing. Viewing is recommended.

The property is situated between Gavray-sur-Sienne and Villedieu-Les-Poeles - they are both pleasant historic towns approx 10-15 minutes drive away.  Granville, with its excellent beaches, sailing marina and fishing port is only a 30-minute drive to the west, with Mont St. Michel, Bayeux with its famous tapestry, Avranches, Coutances, St Lo and the D-Day landing sites in easy reach.  The major city of Saint-Lô is 33km distant.    The Channel Ports of Caen Ouistreham (1 hour) and both Le Havre and Cherbourg (90 minutes)are easily accessible  and it will take 4 hours to drive to the Channel tunnel at Calais.  There is a mainline train station at Villedieu-les-Poêles which is on the Paris/Granville line and connects with Paris in about 2 hours and 40 minutes.
