The gravel driveway leads to a covered terrace spanning the width of this early 18th century cottage. The entrance door leads into the kitchen/dining room which boasts an original fireplace to be restored (it has been covered by plaster board). This room shows shows the original thick stone walls (up to 1 metre thick in places)and original wooden beams; features which can be seen throughout the property. The kitchen/dining room gives onto the living room, with glass doors to the terrace. This leads to the ground floor double bedroom and the bathroom and WC.

Across the landing is the attic, a space of 64m², ripe for conversion into habitable accomodation, featuring the original carpentry which is in good condition.

Locals claim that the house is the oldest in this hamlet of just 7 houses; all of which are set in a natural park. The historic town of Lassay-les-Châteaux provides all amentites, including schools, shops, doctors, pharmacies etc.

The current owners have lived comfortably in this cottage full-time for a number of years, however the low running costs would make this an ideal holiday home too. The cottage is ready to move into, but some light redecoration may be desired in some rooms. The property benefits from mains electricity and water and broadband internet. It has a septic tank which requires updating in order to comply to current regulations.


The garden boasts a small, pretty stone outbuilding which is currently used as a shed/workshop. This outbuilding boasts plumbing and electricity and would make an ideal garden room or workshop.
