Countryside house for sale in Manche - VIRTUAL TOUR

Substantial detached family house with large barns with potential annexe near the Normandy/Brittany border.

The property has been renovated to a high standard which includes double glazing, chestnut flooring on the landing, and a superb farmhouse kitchen (end of 2024), terrace and seating areas.  There is the additional benefit of a separate granny/teenage annexe on the ground floor which could be used as a self-contained gîte with potential earnings of 900 - 1,000€ per week.  The huge barns would be ideal for a car collection, workshop, storage, etc. 

The property is situated in the beautiful lower Normandy region of Northern France about 18 kilometres from the world famous UNESCO heritage site of Mont Saint Michel.  The nearest town is St.James, about 5km away. This small but charming town features several good restaurants as well as a surprisingly good range of shops and bars. There are also two good supermarkets.  It is conveniently positioned just four kilometres West of Junction 32 of the A84 - the main motorway that runs past the Channel Ports of Caen and Le Havre. The journey from Caen takes about 1½ hours, around thirty minutes more from Le Havre or Cherbourg.  45 minutes from the port of St.Malo.  Dieppe is  around 3½ hours' drive or Calais is around 5-6 hours' drive.
