This renovation project includes two separate stone buildings – a detached house and a semi-detached dwelling – both in derelict condition and in need of complete refurbishment. Set on a generous plot of land, the site is surrounded by tranquil countryside and offers endless potential, whether for a permanent home, holiday retreat, gîte business, or multi-generational living (subject to the usual planning consents).
The Main House
The primary dwelling is a detached, traditional stone-built house typical of the region, with charming original features still intact. While currently uninhabitable, the building offers a solid footprint for transformation, with scope for a kitchen/diner, sitting room, utility, and 2–3 bedrooms depending on your final plans.
The Second Dwelling
Located nearby on the same plot is a semi-detached stone cottage, also requiring full renovation. It lends itself perfectly to a guest house, holiday rental, studio, or independent annexe for visiting family and friends. The flexibility of two separate dwellings adds real value and development potential.
The property is currently off-grid with no working water or electricity. Nearby connections are believed to be available and installation of a septic system will be required. All renovation and building works would be subject to local planning permissions.
The plot offers a peaceful, private setting with mature trees and countryside views. The land is ideal for a kitchen garden, orchard, or terrace – and there’s ample room for parking, garaging, or further development subject to permissions. It’s a superb canvas for anyone looking to embrace rural French living and self-sufficiency.
This part of southern Normandy is renowned for its natural beauty, rich history, and outdoor lifestyle. The area is especially popular with walkers and cyclists thanks to its woodland trails, rivers, and open countryside.
Nearby highlights include:
Mortain (10 mins) – known for its Grand Cascade (one of Normandy’s largest waterfalls) and the peaceful Petite Chapelle with panoramic views of the surrounding hills.
Mont-Saint-Michel (under 1 hour) – France’s iconic tidal island and unesco World Heritage Site.
The d-Day Beaches (approx. 1hr 30 mins) – a must-visit for history lovers, including Omaha and Utah Beaches.
The Vire Gorges & Greenways – ideal for cycling, fishing, and kayaking.
Local amenities, supermarkets, doctors, and schools can all be found in nearby Mortain or Vire, while weekly markets and regional festivals give a strong sense of community and tradition.
