Property Description

Summary: Traditional wood-framed cottage with barn, cellar and well, beautiful gardens and mature trees on an acre of land in a small village just 75 minutes from Calais and with easy motorway access from all directions. Can move straight in but further renovations required.

Detail: The cottage is located in the village of Ménonval amongst the rolling hills of the Pays de Bray at the heart of upper Normandy with easy access from the A28 and A29.  The traditional cottage is surrounded by rolling lawns beyond which lie a small orchard and pasture.

Downstairs comprises a living room, sitting room, kitchen and bathroom/toilet.  Both main rooms have open hearth fires, exposed beams and look over the gardens front and back. Up the solid wood staircase is a cozy open space running the length of the house with room for three king-size beds. Whilst perfectly livable further renovation is required to the eastern façade.

The property includes a barn – ideal for renovation - with a wine cellar, a well, a small orchard and pasture land. The mature trees include apple, cherry, hazelnut, pear, walnut and willow. A bush vine and quinces grow in front of the barn. The property is bordered by a small church, a manor house and farm.

Location is perfect for a weekend retreat - just 90 minutes from Paris.
