Description

Nestled in the tranquil countryside of Montpinchon, in the picturesque region of Basse-Normandie, this charming stone house offers a scenic and peaceful haven ideally suited for a family or those looking to immerse themselves in the serene French country lifestyle. Built in 1840, this "maison de maitre" combines historical significance and modern amenities, making it a uniquely appealing property.

This five-bedroom home boasts a generous interior space of approximately 177 square meters, set within a sprawling land area of just under 5,000 square meters. The property seamlessly integrates comfort with rustic charm, featuring rooms interspersed between six levels, including a traditional “cave” or basement. Each level is meticulously crafted to maximize living space and comfort, ensuring that each member of the household has their own cozy retreat.

The living spaces include two ample-sized rooms on the ground floor, each about 25 square meters, designed thoughtfully as a living room and a kitchen diner. Both areas are equipped with wood-burning stoves, set within classic chimney places, perfect for creating a warm ambience during cooler nights.

The upper floors house five spacious bedrooms, three of which come complete with full en-suite facilities and two featuring handy walk-in store rooms/dressing areas. There's also an additional family bathroom ensuring convenience for all household members. Comfort is ensured year-round with updated central heating sourced from an air-to-water heat pump, supplemented by a solar-powered hot water system and a backup heat pump for uninterrupted service.

Homeowners will appreciate the economic efficiency of the property, with heating costs averaging under €1,000 annually. Practicality extends throughout the house with double glazed windows and internal wooden shutters on the ground floor to enhance thermal insulation. The house is also equipped with fiberoptic broadband, perfect for those who work from home or require reliable internet access.

The main house is south-facing, providing a sunny garden backdrop. There is a generously sized separate garage approximately 20 meters from the main building over three levels, facilitating ample workspace, car storage, and additional storage options. The property also features extensive outdoor space with charming gardens at the front and back, alongside a paddock/orchard rich with apple, plum, and fig trees flanking the house. This outdoor space is tailor-made to encourage local wildlife, with carefully designed paths augmenting the natural habitat for birds and bees. Moreover, the river Soulles borders the garden and paddock, enhancing the bucolic feel with its gentle flows and occasional fish.

For those keen on integrating into the local Montpinchon community, you will find the environment warm and accepting. The nearby village of Cerisy la Salle, just a three-minute drive away, offers essential amenities including bakeries, a butcher, post office, bank, and pharmacy. Montmartin sur Mer, only a short drive away, presents fabulous beaches ideal for family outings and water activities. Additional cultural experiences can be enjoyed in Coutances, a mere 15 minutes away, where one can explore an impressive cathedral and a variety of shops and restaurants.
