Normandy, Orne, Tinchebray, France

Detached stone house with nearly 2 acres and outbuildings

This property offers spacious accommodation over two floors.  The land is overgrown and will require work to bring it back to useable space.  There is an area of woodland near the drive and several outbuildings.   Viewing is highly recommended.

The property is situated in a quiet rural setting but it is within walking distance of a village with bar, bakery, chemist and everyday amenities. The market town of Tinchebray is a short 5 minute drive away where there are restaurants, bakeries, a lake and a supermarket. It is within 10 minutes drive to the  town of Flers and 15 minutes drive to the medieval town of Domfront.  Several great beaches are easily reached within an hour including Granville. 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.
