Vendrennes, Vendee, France

Situated in a peaceful hamlet 1.5km away from the local boulangerie, shop & restaurant and just one hour from the coast, this 4-bed stone farmhouse combines original features, spacious living areas & C-rated energy efficiency.  Outside there is a large garden with countryside views, a private well and photovoltaic panels.

The house has already benefited from important renovation work, while retaining its stone walls, fireplaces and other original features. Some updating remains, giving the next owners the opportunity to put their own stamp on the property.

Les Herbiers is around 15 minutes away, providing a much wider range of shops, restaurants and services. The area is also well placed for exploring the wider Vendée, with Puy du Fou around 25 minutes away and La Roche-sur-Yon approximately 30 minutes by car. Nantes Airport is around 45 minutes away.

The house is therefore rural without being isolated.  Surrounded by beautiful French countryside yet with everyday amenities close enough for practical day-to-day living.
