Two Independent Houses, Neufchatel-En-Bray, Seine-Maritime

Property Description

This property consists of two separate houses and would be perfect for those looking for a home and income. Both properties are original rural buildings that have been fully renovated to create contemporary living spaces.





There’s a 2-bedroom / 2 bathroom cottage, together with a 2-bedroom/ two bathroom barn conversion of original timber framed Normandy-style buildings. The properties are surrounded by some beautiful grounds and the popular market town of Neufchatel en Bray is within easy reach. The ferry port at Dieppe is 45mins drive and Euro-tunnel only 90 mins away.





Barn:





The barn was completely renovated in 2005. New foundations were put in and a new roof was put on. The whole building was fully insulated and new windows, shutters and Velux’s all fitted. The exterior was completely re-clad with wood and brick in-fill.  New oak floors were laid upstairs with parquet flooring and sandstone tiles downstairs. The main living space is a large light-filled open-plan living/dining/kitchen space on the first floor with two bedrooms and en-suites and a separate WC on the ground floor.
