5-bed, 17th Century country house, St Romain-de-Colbosc, Seine-Maritime.
This 5 bedroom 17th century country house comes with an attached barn as well as a large workshop/garage. The property is surrounded by beautiful grounds of over 3 acres and is within easy reach of both shops and services. The ferry port at Le Havre is just 30mins away, as is the beautiful port town of Honfleur. There’s 145m2 of habitable space. The spacious living areas on the ground floor have high ceilings and lots of light. The main living room is dominated by a beautiful fireplace and also has French windows that open directly onto the terrace and garden beyond. The kitchen is well-equipped and there’s a downstairs bedroom and bathroom and laundry room. Upstairs there are 3 generous bedrooms. There’s currently no bathroom upstairs but there’s plenty of space for one to be installed. There’s a large attached barn that would be perfect for conversion into further accommodation. Outside: The property is approached via a thatched archway which leads to a driveway lined with mature lime trees. The property comes with over 3 acres of land, some of which is pasture, currently grazed by horses. The owner, a classic car enthusiast, has built a large two storey workshop/garage. This is very well equipped and would also work well as an art studio. As well as the adjoining barn and workshop there’s also a third outbuilding that would require complete renovation. Location: The property is in a peaceful and private location, just outside the pretty village of St Romain de Colbosc. The village has a good selection of shops, restaurants, cafe’s as well as a carrefour supermarket. The weekly produce market, held on a Saturday morning, is a real institution and is one of the oldest and best in the Pays de Caux. Here you’ll find top quality local cheeses, meats, seafood, fruit and vegetables and of course cider! The surrounding area is very picturesque. Further inland is the Seine Normande National Park, whilst the beautiful Alabaster coast is half an hour away. The delightful harbour town of Honfleur is 25mins away, with Deauville a little further on. The ferry port at Le Havre is less than 30mins in the car.
