Lovely Renovated Farmhouse with Landscaped Garden, Auxi-Le-Chateau, Pas-De-Calais

Property Description

This beautifully renovated 5-bed farmhouse is situated in a village in the beautiful Authie Valley.  45mins from the beach and just 5 mins from Auxi-le-Chateau, a pretty, historical town widely considered one of the ‘regions gems’.  Just 90mins from Calais, it’s an ideal family home, or rural retreat.

The farmhouse is charming and the renovation work, which included a new roof, drainage & heating has made this a very comfortable home while successfully retaining the character of the building.  Outside, there is a lovely lawned garden with a spacious veranda, shaded terrace and wooden chalet.  The ‘workshop’ is a fantastic building.  Double-height with lovely large windows, it’s an extremely versatile space.

The living areas are spacious and if you’re looking for an indoor/outdoor lifestyle, this house has so many access points to the garden, there’s a real flow to the building.  There are also 3 ground floor bedrooms and 2 ground floor bathrooms if you are looking for a property with single storey accommodation.  Here’s the layout:

Ground Floor

Large kitchen with plenty of space for a farmhouse kitchen
Sitting room of approx 40m2 with wood-burning stove and French doors to the garden

Outside, the landscaped garden covers 0.39 acres.  A lovely area of lawn is surrounded by mature trees and planting. 

Auxi-le-Chateau is a beautiful small town with quaint half-timbered building and pretty, narrow streets.  It is often described as having the look of a film set.  Besides all the history and heritage, Auxi also has plenty of good shops and restaurants as well as all the essential amenities such as banks and medical services.  Market day is on Saturday and there are also various fetes and festivals throughout the year.  It’s a great way to get to know the locals.

The lovely beaches of the Opal coast are also within easy reach.  Long stretches of beautiful sandy beaches and plenty of amazing seafood restaurants to choose from, if you’re a shell-fish fan, this is the place to be!  After lunch, or possibly before lunch just to be on the safe side, there are also lots of activities to enjoy - swimming, fishing, yachting, walking, horse-riding, cycling and golf - just take your pick!
