With 6+ Acres: An Amazingly Beautiful 1803 Country House - Owned by Antique Dealers Who Restored the House 12 Years Ago to its Former Glory: Having a Long Drive and No Neighbours: An Authentic, Rarely To-Be-Found Property

Location: Near Nogent-le-Rotrou, Département of the Orne, Normandy Price: €599,500 Status: For Sale Reference ID: 276 The above price includes Estate Agency Fees. A figure of 6.5% approximately should be added to the purchase price to cover Tax, Notary and Registration Fees. Nogent-le-Rotrou – 7 miles La Ferte-Bernard – 7 miles Le Mans – 28 miles Caen – 80 miles Paris – 85 miles Cherbourg – 160 miles Dinard Airport (Ryanair - London Stansted and East Midlands) – 160 miles The property is situated midway between Nogent-le-Rotrou and La Ferte-Bernard in a quiet country position. This is a glorious location, being situated in the middle of the Parc Naturel Regional of the Perche, a protected region of natural beauty. The property stands on its own in open country. The house is situated at the end of its grand drive. There are fine views from the house over rolling countryside. Owned by a French/English couple for 12 years, it is their much loved home, beautifully furnished with antiques (they are antique dealers). They will sell various antique furniture to a buyer of the property or they will locate other furniture for purchase if commissioned to do so. Restored under their direction, including the addition of oil fired central heating, the house now has that feeling of great maturity - updated, but not spoiled - the old features, including fine tiled floors, have all been retained. The further potential is clear: the stable block and the large barn are crying out to be partly converted to residential if required by the owner. Otherwise they are extremely useful for use as stables and the storage of vehicles or for other activities.
