Property Description

Detached stone/colombage and slate property(160 sqm), lies in the countryside in a peaceful setting, in the area of St Hilaire de Harcouet, with a land area of 8.43 acres(34 140 sqm). Ideal smallholding or equestrian property with 8 acres, potential gite and outbuildings. This property is ideal for anyone wishing to own a smallholding and has possible income generating possibilities in the form of a small detached house (believed to have been a Shoemaker's cottage) which requires the renewal of outline planning permission to finish the renovation. The larger outbuilding has planning permission to create a separate entrance from the road. The main house is built of block which has been rendered under a slate and tile roof. It has been sympathetically modernised and benefits from gas fired central heating with thermostatically controlled radiators in every room, recent electrics, insulation and double glazing. There are phone and TV points throughout the house and reliable broadband connection. The current owner has converted the attached garage into a ground floor bedroom with shower room and toilet and utility area. Mains drainage, water, electricity, telephone and broadband. Well water for outside use. Gas fired central heating. The property is approached via double gates and a gravel driveway which leads to a parking area. The garden includes a vegetable garden, terrace, orchard with apple, pear and cherry trees which are enclosed and beyond that are the paddocks. There is a working well which has been tested but will need a new pump. The gardens are fully enclosed and a trout and salmon river creates a natural boundary to the south of the property. There are 2 small oak framed colombage barns with concrete floors ideal for chickens, sheep, goats, etc. In total there is approximately 8 acres of well-drained and maintained land surrounding the property. Separated from the main house and from each other is the barn and the gite. There is a road with some traffic close by. No factory or farm close by. The house is 3 kms from the basic shops and 13 kms from all the shops.
