Property summary
This is a large stone French farmhouse with two detached barns and on approx 4000 sq. M plot, situated one mile (1.5km) from the village of Carelles with the historic towns of Fougeres and Mayenne nearby. The Pays de la Loire borders Brittany and is convenient for all the western ferry ports at Caen, St Malo & Le Havre.
The fully centrally heated property has been tastefully modernised to include a large fully fitted farmhouse kitchen ( including space for dishwasher, range cooker and fridge) , open plan lounge area with exposed beams and log burner. In addition to the ground floor there is a double bedroom and sizeable games room together with an inner hall providing access to a bathroom with separate wc and shower cubicle. On the first floor there is a mezzanine area which is currently used as an bedroom, a further large bedroom and a master bedroom with ensuite bathroom. The property faces south and enjoys the sunshine for most of the day on the front elevation.
This unique property has potential to expand the accommodation into the barns which are attached and which could be developed into gites. The property has been successfully operated as a rental holiday home over the years with Hoseasons and Brittany ferries.
There is a large lawned garden to the front and rear with lovely open views and hard standing for several vehicles. There is a large open barn at the rear where the splash pool and oil tank is situated.
We have owned the property for almost 20 years and have really enjoyed the quiet position , yet with easy access to the local villages and towns and are happy to sell the property with all the furniture ( and ride -on mower) if required
