Wail, Pas-de-Calais, France

Set in the peaceful Canche Valley, this 3-bed farmhouse combines traditional character with practical living space.  The garden is a real feature of the property.  An enclosed space of a third of an acre, there is a lovely sheltered outside seating area, veg patch, useful outbuilding and parking area.  The property is just 10 minutes from Hesdin, a beautiful medieval riverside town with a good range of amenities.

This attractive brick farmhouse offers around 127m² of living space and is in very good general condition. The layout is straightforward, with the main living accommodation on the ground floor and two further bedrooms upstairs, while the independent rooms in the outbuildings add useful flexibility.

Outside

The property sits in approximately 1,550m² of enclosed, mature and carefully maintained gardens, with plenty of trees and greenery. A covered terrace provides a sheltered spot for eating and relaxing while enjoying the garden.

The outbuilding is well maintained.  It has 4 rooms and has lots of potential for various uses - hobbies, storage, future projects, perhaps separate guest accommodation (subject to planning permission).

Location

The property is located near Wail, a pretty, riverside village in the Canche Valley.  If you are a keen angler, there are fishing lakes on the edge of the village.  This is a beautiful, rural area between three traditional market towns, Hesdin, Saint-Pol-sur-Ternoise and Frévent. 

Shops, schools and everyday services are within easy reach and it is just 8mins from Hesdin. This popular town has a good choice of restaurants, shops and an excellent weekly market. The stretch of coast between Calais and the River Somme (Côte d'Opale) can lay claim to having some of the best beaches in France, with miles of unspoilt sand and endless horizons where the sea seems to melt into the sky. Try the popular Stella Plage or Berck Plage for a stroll - or a dip if you are feeling brave.

The ferry port at Calais is an hour and 10 minutes by car whilst the famous beach resort of Le Touquet is close by, as is the medieval hilltop town of Montreuil with its renowned restaurants.
