Domfront, Orne,
€108,000  |   Ref: 9529

Situated in a quiet rural hamlet, yet close to the lovely market town of Domfront, this pretty cottage was renovated in 2016 and has a lovely garden and a paddock.  If you are looking for a property that offers the potential for a comfortable base as well as the potential for a renovation project, this property would be ideal.

The cottage has one bedroom and a very comfortable living space.  There are two stone outbuildings, one of which adjoins the cottage.  Both outbuildings are in need of complete renovation (subject to planning).

The plot covers an area of 5771m2 / 1.43 acres and runs from the cottage right down to the bottom of the hill.

The renovated cottage has 49m2 habitable space.  Here’s the layout:

Outside

The plot covers just under 1.5 acres and includes a terraced area by the cottage and the paddock that runs down the hill.  In the paddock there is a corrugated iron shelter.  There is also an old bakery, constructed of stone and block, under a tiled roof (again, in need of repair).  

The outbuilding collection is completed by a large timber barn with fibre cement roof (8.75m x 4.49m)  with a sliding metal door and a mezzanine storage area.

If you have a caravan or van, there is also an area of hard-standing concrete that would be a suitable place to keep it.
