Detached country house with potential B&B or Gîte and nearly 3/4 acre, 15 minutes from the Coast
This house has been modernised by the current owners to offer bright and spacious accommodation. There is the option of using one or both of the downstairs bedrooms as B&B rooms or an annexe if required. It would also be suitable for those wishing to live entirely on the ground floor. A particular feature of the property is the lounge with its exposed beams. Water and waste pipes are in place in case a new buyer wishes to make this room into a kitchen. There is an old stone bakery which could also be renovated into a gîte, subject to planning. It is situated in a pleasant rural hamlet with a large garden. It has had some new flooring, drylining and insulation, plumbing, bathrooms and electricity.
