Beautiful 5-Bed Manor House, Sourdeval, Manche

Property Description

This fabulous 5-bed ‘maison de maitre’ is priced very competitively. The property comes with several large outbuildings, 1.5 acres of land and has lovely views. The property is a 5min drive from the market town of Sourdeval. 

The property has been a family home for the last 36 years and has been completely renovated by the current owners.  The high ceilings make the accommodation spacious, light and airy. There are plenty of original character features such as the huge granite fireplace with raised open hearth, stone walls and exposed wooden beams.  The property stands in an elevated position with open views of the surrounding countryside to the front. It offers comfortable living accommodation and the possibility to create an additional bedroom and bathroom in the loft space, if required.  

There are several stone outbuildings, 2 of which used to be houses.  There is also a huge barn which would be ideal for someone wishing to work from home, or for a multiple car garage, workshop or motor home storage. 

The property is situated in the southwest of Normandy, near the borders of Manche and Calvados,  approx. 3 km from Sourdeval, the nearest town. The town offers every amenity including two banks and supermarkets. Market day is held every Tuesday morning, as is the livestock market. Further amenities can be found at Vire-Normandie (11 km) with all amenities including a train station giving access to Paris. The property is within a 15 minute drive of a well known local restaurant. The beaches on the west coast are an hour’s drive away and Sourdeval is approximately 80 minutes drive from the port of Caen and an hour and forty minutes from Cherbourg. A little further afield are the D-Day landing beaches, the Mont St Michel.  The Lac de la Dathée, ideal for walking, fishing and boating, and an 18 hole golf course are within 15 minutes drive,  as is the Saint Sever forest.  The nearest Airport is at Dinard (70 miles), Ferry Ports at Caen (50 miles) or a one and a quarter hour drive to Saint Malo, and the nearest train station is at Vire (8 miles) from where you can take a fast train to Paris.
