Details
This delightful property is situated one and a half kilometers from a friendly village which enjoys good amenities including a butcher, baker, pharmacy, doctor, post office and two general stores. There is also a village school. The nearest hypermarker is 15 minutes by car. It is just one hour's drive from both Cherbourg and Caen.
The property, set in nearly half a hectare, comprises en elegently modernised farmhouse with 5 large bedrooms, 3 spacious reception rooms, 2 bathrooms and a fully equipped modern kitchern. It has extensive outbuildings, a large courtyard garden, paddock, an orchard and a vegetable plot.
It is an ideal family home, but would also make a perfect B&B while the outbuildings could be converted to gites or used as stables. The house is about 250 years old and was extensively, but sympathetically, modernised in 2002. The result is a light filled home, full of period character yet well insulated and with all the amenities of a modern house. It benefits from oil fired central heating throughout, plus a large, efficient wood burning stove (double faced) which serves both the sitting room and dining room.
La Maugerie (the name of the house) is set in the heart of the Parc Naturel Regional des Marais du Cotentin et du Bessin. The property is within a 35 minutes drive of sandy beaches (on both sides of the Cotentin Peninsula) and close to the historic towns of Coutances, Bayeux, Carentan and St Lo. The D-Day landing beaches, battlefields and museums are all within easy reach.
