Set in the heart of the breathtaking Alpes Mancelles, this authentic French farmhouse offers a rare opportunity to restore a traditional property in one of the most beautiful and desirable rural areas of north-west France.
Located close to the picturesque village of Saint-Léonard-des-Bois, this former farmhouse ('fermette') sits on approximately 3,777m2 of land and includes a traditional stone house together with several outbuildings offering enormous potential for redevelopment.
The existing accommodation of approximately 70m2 currently comprises:
Kitchen
Reception room
One bedroom
Shower room
Separate WC
The property requires complete renovation throughout, making it ideal for buyers looking to create a bespoke home while adding considerable value.
In addition to renovating the existing accommodation, there is exciting potential to:
Convert the first floor into additional bedrooms and bathrooms.
Transform the traditional outbuildings into guest accommodation, a games room, workshop, studio, home office or outdoor summer kitchen.
Create a charming enclosed courtyard garden between the buildings.
Reconfigure the property into a superb family holiday home or permanent residence.
*All subject to obtaining the necessary planning permission
Properties offering this combination of character, land, outbuildings and location are becoming increasingly difficult to find.
A stunning location
The Alpes Mancelles are often described as one of France's best-kept secrets.
Despite being only a few hours from the Channel ports, the area surprises visitors with its dramatic rolling hills, wooded valleys and winding rivers that create scenery unlike anywhere else in western France.
Outdoor enthusiasts are spoiled for choice with:
Walking and hiking trails
Cycling and mountain biking
Canoeing and kayaking
Wild swimming
Fishing
Rock climbing
Horse riding
The lively village of Saint-Léonard-des-Bois is one of the area's most popular destinations, offering restaurants, cafés and year-round outdoor activities.
Just a short drive away lies Saint-Céneri-le-Gérei, officially recognised as one of Les Plus Beaux Villages de France, attracting visitors from across Europe.
A project with real potential
This property is perfect for buyers looking for more than simply a house.
It offers the opportunity to create a beautiful French country home tailored to your own style while benefiting from one of the region's most sought-after locations.
Whether your dream is:
A family holiday home,
a permanent residence,
a lifestyle change in rural France,
or a long-term renovation investment,
this property provides the ideal starting point.
Complete renovation is required, but opportunities like this are becoming increasingly rare, particularly at such an attractive price.
If you are prepared to invest the time and effort, the rewards could be substantial.
