French property seekers can obtain a property requiring restoration but with potential for rental use for just €66,000 (£58,000), it has been reported.

The renovation project in question is in Mayenne in the Pays de la Loire region of the country, notes Fly-2let.co.uk.

Already supplied with water and electricity, the stone property needs restoration but has features such as high windows and a large walk-in bread oven, estate agents marketing the property have said.

The property is also two hours from Paris by TGV train and 60KM from the nearest airport at Rennes.

Investors in French property may be keen on seeking out this sort of property, with any restoration work enabling them to stamp their own style on it.

The Pays de la Loire region of France incorporates part of Brittany, including Nantes and the Loire Valley, which became a Unesco world heritage site in 2000 due to its culture and architecture.
