| | Anne Rice, Independent Agent, says: | | Just a touch of TLC will bring this lovely house back to a home. South facing substantial and attractive farmhouse, set in beautiful peaceful southern Mayenne countryside is currently divided into two entirely independent dwellings with all utilities installed, making immediate income potential from either part of the house, or to accommodate family or guests. It could also be easily transformed back into a wonderful home of generous proportions. Enter through the porch into the light living area with open fireplace and stone mantle. The fireplace serves both the main reception and the feature 'sit in' Four a Pain' just off the kitchen. This area makes a unique breakfast room (circular conversion from the original bread oven) and overlooks the paved terrace, paddocks and pond. The spacious kitchen is also very bright and airy having being designed with all year round light in mind, and is contained within a very stylish wood and double glazed extension built in 2005, overlooking spectacular views. The windows are fitted with electronic blinds. | Double doors lead directly onto the paved terrace. Above the breakfast kitchen, there is a pretty little mezzanine with apex ceilings, ideal for study or for your teenagers to do their homework! The dining room is accessed by two doorways and has double French doors onto the front courtyard and garden. There are two ground floor bedrooms, shower room and cloakroom with wc. On the first floor there is a master ensuite bedroom with walk-in wardrobe and further double bedroom which also shares the ensuite bathroom. The second part of the house has an independent entrance. From the hallway there is a staircase leading to a landing area with cloakroom and wc, then onto a large open plan living space (with cathedral ceiling) which incorporates huge living area, dining room (or possibly additional bedroom) and fitted country style kitchen overlooking the orchard. Two bedrooms and bathroom are accessed by an attractive staircase. Gas central heating and double glazing. Most windows have shutters.
The farmhouse was built circa 1850 and has two large gravelled courtyards and a circular drive giving good access. Large well stocked and fenced orchard and wooden decking area overlooking the fenced pond. From the courtyard is a gateway leading to a large paddock behind the stable block and can be accessed directly from the stables. The main courtyard has a lawned area surrounded by mature semi-circular hedging with rose beds and a well. Climbing roses on the front of the house give a spectacular colourful display in summer. Vines grow on the facade of the stable/barn. Just to the side of the large hangar there is a further grassed paddock. Potential for sand school. There are three boxes with interior/exterior access doors. Large span ceilings over stables and there is a hayloft over the workshops. There is a small poultry house and a cave at the end of the barn. A bridle/footpath runs along perimeter of property leading to a network of paths and bridleways.
The village is just 1km where you will be able to get your fresh baguette daily. There is a primary school in the village and secondary just 12kms with local bus. There are excellent transport links with the Autoroute to Paris in less than 2 hours. (TGV train 1 hr) You can reach the ports of St Malo and Caen in one and a half hours. Budget airlines fly from Rennes, Dinard and Angers – all one hours drive. Le Mans (60kms)
