Normandy, Manche, Sourdeval, France

Pretty stone cottage with consevatory and outbuildings

The property is in a quiet rural hamlet with an open outlook over fields.  It benefits from double glazed windows and character features including exposed stone walls and beams and a granite fireplace. The conservatory was built within the last 10 years, the house has been rewired and had new windows, woodburner and the drive has been re-laid with new gates.  The large garage is suitable for a Motor Home and has an inspection pit.  There is a pretty garden and productive fruit and vegetable garden.  Planning consent may be available to convert the stone barn into additional living accommodation.  Viewing is highly recommended.

The property stands in its own grounds approximately 10km from the market town of Sourdeval, with all amenities.  The house is accessible from any of the northern ports within 1-2 hours (St Malo, Cherbourg or Caen). It is a four hour journey from Calais if you prefer to come from that direction.    The property is situated in a very peaceful rural setting, almost equidistant from Sourdeval, Vire and Tinchebray.  Tinchebray is a 10 minute drive away where there are restaurants, bakery's, a lake and supermarket can be found. Several great beaches are easily reached within an hour including Granville.  There are several nearby disused railway tracks that are great for walks or cycling.
