Property Description

Château with 2 attached gîtes and 1 1/4 acres with superb views

This 13th century stone farmhouse château, originally built for the Bishop of Bayeux in the 13th Century,  is central for World War 2 historic areas. It is a substantial residence, only 3 kms from the town of St. Martin des Besaces, in Normandy, France. The property is at the end of a pretty, private driveway in tranquil countryside with beautiful views down the valley and has 2 gîtes which have been successfully let by the present owner.  There is huge potential to renovate the Château part of the building which has a new roof. 

The property is located in a rural area but all facilities can be found close by in Saint Martin de Besaces (3 km).   There are excellent motorway links nearby.  It  is an ideal base for walking, cycling or touring the surrounding area. Just 10km away is the 17th century castle in the Town of Torigny-sur-Vire, and Bayeux with its famous tapestry, cathedral and restaurants is only 20km away. The Landing Beach at Arromanches is about 35km and Caen with its ferry port and airport is about a 30 minute drive.
