Property Description

This 5-bed stone house with lots of original character features and spacious living areas is now on the market for the first time in 35 years. The south-facing garden is very pretty and has mature fruit trees and a patio area with countryside views. Close to medieval town of Tinchebray, and with great Paris rail links from Vire, Caen ferry port is also 1 hour away. 

The property was renovated in the 1990’s and, putting the current furniture arrangement to one side,  the new owner will probably want to invest in further modernisation, particularly in the kitchen.  However, there is gas-fired central heating, two wood-burning stoves and double-glazed windows on the ground floor. 

Ground Floor:

Entrance Hall - Partly glazed door to rear and cupboard under stairs.
Cloakroom - WC & hand basin
Shower Room - Large shower, basin, heated towel rail
Sitting Room - Spacious (6.27 x 4.15m) with fireplace and woodburner, exposed beams, double doors to terrace.
Dining Room - Generous size (5.00 x 4.82m) with granite fireplace, exposed stone wall, stairs to first floor.
Ground floor bathroom - Bath with shower screen, WC, basin, exposed beam, heated towel rail.
Kitchen - Modern units, stainless steel sink, built-in oven, space for dishwasher, door to garden.

First Floor (via dining room stairs):

Landing area 
Bedroom 1 - Spacious (5.03 x 3.97m), ornamental fireplace, windows on north and south.
Bedroom 2 - (4.95 x 2.44m), Velux windows, exposed beams and stone wall.

First Floor (via entrance hall stairs):

Bedroom 3 - (3.90 x 2.77m), window to north
Bedroom 4/Study - (2.64 x 2.30m), window to west, sloping ceiling.
Bedroom 5 - (3.63 x 3.60m), windows to east and west, sloping ceiling.

Outside:

The gravel driveway leads to the parking and turning area. Both front and rear gardens have lawned areas, apple trees and mature shrubs. The south-facing rear garden has a lovely stone patio with BBQ area and great views over the surrounding countryside and there is also a well.

Location:

The house is situated in a village close to the medieval town of Tinchebray.  Both Vire and Flers are a 20 minute drive.  Well-connected for both the UK and Europe, Vire in particular has excellent rail links to Paris and the house is an hour from Caen ferry port and within easy reach of Mont St Michel, the D-Day Beaches, and Bayeux, making it ideally located for both a peaceful countryside lifestyle and broader travel.
