Normandy, Manche, Sourdeval, France

Detached 3 bedroom house with nearly an acre

This detached property was originally the farmhouse of the adjoining farm.  It is now being sold separately with nearly an acre of its own land.  Viewing is highly recommended.

It is situated in the southwest of Normandy, near the borders of Manche and Calvados, near the market town of Sourdeval. The town offers every amenity including two banks and supermarkets. Market day is held every Tuesday morning, as is the livestock market.  The beaches on the west coast are an hour’s drive away and Sourdeval is approximately 80 minutes drive from the port of Caen and an hour and forty minutes from Cherbourg. A little further afield are the D-Day landing beaches, the Mont St Michel.  The Lac de la Dathée, ideal for walking, fishing and boating, and an 18 hole golf course are within 15 minutes drive,  as is the Saint Sever forest.
