Substantial country house with bedrooms on the ground floor, basement and 2.5 acres with outbuildings
This property stands in a quiet rural hamlet and offers spacious accommodation with potential to create extra bedrooms in the loft.

There is an attractive garden, paddock and orchard with an outbuilding. Viewing is highly recommended.
This house is situated in the southwest of Normandy, near the borders of Manche and Calvados. Only a few minutes drive away, the town of Sourdeval offers every amenity including two banks and supermarkets. Market day is held every Tuesday morning, as is the livestock market. Also a short drive to the town of Mortain, where you will find shops, schools, doctors surgeries, supermarkets, etc. and local walking, and fishing. Extensive recreational facilities can be found nearby including local waterfalls and walking clubs, canoeing and outdoor sports. Beaches on the west coast are an hours drive away and 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 20 minutes drive, as is the Saint Sever forest.
