The popular market towns of Flers and Sourdeval are both within easy reach, as is the ferry port at Caen.

The total plot size measures 0.76 acres but the owners are in the process of buying a small neighbouring plot which includes a wood store. This would increase the total plot size to 0.89 acres. There’s a large barn on the plot, which is divided into two and makes the perfect workshop. 

Location:
The property is located in the hamlet of Beauchene, in between the popular market towns of Sourdeval and Flers. Both towns have excellent weekly markets and a wide selection of shops, restaurants and supermarkets. There are basic shops, including an excellent bakery at Lonlay l’Abbaye, which is a 6min drive. 

The D25 road runs to the front but the property is set back from the road (with another house in between). The current owners say there is traffic noise occasionally but the road is rarely busy and the speed is limited to 40mph.
