Beautifully presented stone built house sitting in a 1/4 of an acre of pretty gardens just a short drive from a bustling market town with all amenities

This house has been lovingly updated and extended by the present owners in the last 17 years.  It was re-wired completely about 8 years ago.  It offers versatile accommodation with the possibility of creating a ground floor bedroom in the attached garage, subject to permission.  There is a Studio on the first floor which could usually be used as a bedroom.  Water has been brought up to the room in the event that someone wishes to create an en-suite bathroom.  The house is in a hamlet with 2 other properties and is surrounded by farm land. The pretty gardens are of a manageable size and there is a large patio and covered seating area.  Viewing is highly recommended.

The property, although wonderfully secluded, is located less than 5 minutes by car from the town of Gorron.  This town has many shops and services including supermarket, banks, post office, independent shops, cafes, butchers, news agency, dentist, doctors and pharmacy. The large town of Mayenne is 20 minutes away and the larger Laval 50 minutes.  The closest ferry port is at Saint Malo (1 hour 40 mins); Caen (2 hours 15 mins); Cherbourg (2 hours 50 mins).  The TGV train service can be taken from Laval to Paris Montparnasse.
