Normandy, Orne, Tinchebray, France

Attractive detached stone house within walking distance of amenities to renovate

This detached property is in a small hamlet on the outskirts of Town.  It requires renovation although it was re-wired in 2012 and a new floor was put into the ground floor study/bedroom 1.  It is a light house with high ceilings and character features.  Viewing is highly recommended

The property is on the outskirts of a  small medieval town with shops, bars, banks, schools, doctors' surgeries, between Vire and Flers (both a 15 minute drive) which both offer all major facilities, including daily trains to Paris. The ferry port at Caen Ouistreham is 1 hour's drive, 1 1/2 hours from Dinard, Cherbourg is 1 1/2 hour's drive and Calais is 305 km away.  It is located within easy reach of Mont St Michel, the D-day Beaches and Bayeux.
