17th Century stone farmhouse with original features sitting in over an acre of garden with further outbuildings

This property stands in the middle of its land in a quiet rural hamlet.  The accommodation boasts original features such as exposed stone walls and beams and a granite fireplace. It benefits from recently installed heat exchange units for the heating.  There is room to extend into the attached garage and to create more living accommodation in the loft space, if required.  There are two useful barns and pretty gardens with fruit trees and pond.  Viewing is highly recommended.

The property is situated on the Manche/Calvados border and is only 1 hour away from the ferry port at Caen Ouistreham and 3 hours from Paris. Calais is about 4 hours away.  The D-Day landing beaches, Granville, Mont Saint Michel and the Brittany coast are all less than an hours drive away, with the D-Day Landing Beaches 56 km distant.   The UNESCO heritage site of the Mont Saint Michel is about 40 minutes drive. The nearest main town is either Villedieu-les-Poêles or Percy-en-Normandie about 10 minutes drive away and Vire is approximately 15 minutes distant. The property is also well placed to pick up the A84 motorway at Pont-Farcy or Villedieu-les-Poêles.
