Hambye, Manche, France

This beautifully renovated 5-bedroom farmhouse can be divided into two independent sections. It would work well either as a large family home or as a home and income property where one of the sections was let to paying guests (subject to relevant permissions). The property comes with over 5 acres of land and has wonderful countryside views. The village of Hambye is a few minutes away whilst the coast and the ferry ports are within easy reach.

There is a generous 224 m² of living space across three floors and the layout of each section is as follows:

The first section of the house features a large, bright kitchen with double doors opening onto the west-facing terrace. The adjoining living room benefits from windows on the east and south sides, direct access to the garden, and an efficient fireplace. The first floor includes a bedroom, a shower room with WC, and an open-plan studio area. In the attic level, there is a spacious bedroom and an additional room with potential for conversion into a shower room with WC.

The second section includes a ground floor living and dining area with kitchen space, along with a utility room and WC. On the first floor is a large bedroom with en-suite shower room and WC, plus a storage and utility room. The attic level contains a further bedroom, also with en-suite shower room and WC.

Outside:

Attached to the house is a garage, and to the rear a large west-facing terrace runs the full length of the property overlooking the fields. The grounds extend to approximately 23,807 m², offering privacy, open countryside views, and sunsets to the west.

Location:

The property is situated in the heart of the picturesque Cherbourg Peninsula, in a peaceful rural location on the outskirts of Hambye. The village is well known for its historic abbey and offers all essential amenities including a school, supermarket, bakery, butcher, pharmacy, bars, and post office. Nearby Gavray (approximately 5 km) offers larger supermarkets, bakeries, butchers, restaurants and a weekly market, held on a Saturday. The ferry ports at Caen and Cherbourg are both within easy reach. 

The landscape features rolling green fields, rugged cliffs, and tranquil coastal paths, ideal for walking. Its beaches range from long sandy stretches to quiet coves. The region is famous for its fresh seafood, best enjoyed with local cider and Normandy butter.
