Property Description

Stone 2 Bed Farmhouse and Attached Barn for Total Modernization and Development, Set on a Rural Plot of 1175m² Close to the Town of Mortain.

Stone 2 bed farmhouse and attached barn for total modernisation and development, set on a rural plot of 1175m2 close to the town of Mortain

Entering the house through the front door into the hall of approx 8m2 with doors off to the Kitchen/living room of approx. 35m2 with chimney and open fireplace, a shower room of approx. 6m2 and a separate w.c.
The hall is where you will find the electric meter and the hot water tank aswell as the stairs to the 1st floor landing and a back door providing ease of access to and from the rear garden.

Doors from the 1st floor landing lead to two bedrooms of approx. 35m2 and 10m2 plus; a smaller room of approx. 8m2 which is accessible only from the larger bedroom, that could be used as an office, a dressing room or a child's bedroom depending on your requirements.

From the 1st floor landing, stairs then lead up to the good height attic over of approx. 54m2 with a dormer window for possible conversion.

To the left hand side of the house is the attached stone barn of approx 13m x 7m which comes with a fireplace on the ground floor and; a 1st floor which was/could be accessible by way of a ladder for viewing purposes. Unfortunately, as this is the original wooden floor, it is not possible any longer to walk along its length.
However, depending on your development plans and subject to permission, this barn could become a very large usable habitable space and/or part habitation, part storage etc and; to note that as this barn is of good height, it gives the opportunity of adding a 2nd floor if required.

There is also a lean to outbuilding of approx. 20m2 to the right hand side of the house which has a dirt floor and corrugated doors either end.
This space could be used as a garage, wood storage or for whatever you require as is or; by removing the front panel you could make it an open hangar for parking a couple of cars or your car and your camping car.

Outside, most of the garden is to side and rear with some to the front of the house and barn where you can park off road.
The owner has already sought permission to open up a 6 metre entrance from the road straight into the far end part of the garden. Her plan was to create a driveway in order that you could park in front of or; of course aswell as undercover in the outbuilding mentioned above, instead of only in front of the house and barn.

This is a sound but basic property that comes with lots of scope to create a very lovely and large home or; indeed modernise the house and then develop the barn into two gites or maybe one large house to live in and then rent out the house; the opportunities are many, subject to permission for the barn and your requirements.

This property comes with mains water and electric, main line telephone and fibre broadband connection. There is also a Well which has been disconnected since mains drainage was added. Its drainage is by septic tank which although is working well may be required to be updated and/or replaced in the year following purchase.

This house is approx. 4.4km from the nearest walking and cycle paths; the green routes or Voie Verte have been created following the old railway lines and make for a pollution free option to explore the beautiful countryside in this area. The local routes are varied and interesting, for example East takes you to the medieval town of Domfront or; choose the opposite direction and you can go all the way to Mont Saint Michel.

A short drive of approx. 4km brings you to the town of Le Teilleul which has a bakers, two banks, chemist, medical centre, school, two hairdressers, florist, vets, DIY shop, 2 bar/restaurants and a bar offering activities and afternoon tea.

Approx. 14km North is the town of Mortain with its popular and beautiful waterfalls, open air swimming pool and park area, cinema and high street shops aswell as a small Saturday morning market.
Or drive West approx. 20mins to the lovely market town of Saint Hilaire du Harcouet where there are local and larger shops plus a popular weekly market, a cinema and a lake/park to enjoy. Or drive East 20mins and you will find the Medieval town of Domfront in Orne and to the south 20 mins to Gorron which is situated in the North of the department
