Charming Normandy Farmhouse with Chapel, Land and Gîte Potential
Peaceful countryside setting near Saint-Hilaire-du-Harcouët
Tucked away at the very end of a quiet country lane, this charming Normandy rural property offers privacy, tranquillity and open countryside views, with no through traffic and nature surrounding the home. Despite its peaceful setting, the property remains conveniently located with local shops and amenities just a six-minute drive away, making it equally suited to full-time living, a second home in France or a lifestyle change project.
The main farmhouse is currently arranged across two independent levels, providing a flexible living configuration that can easily adapt to a variety of needs. Each level currently benefits from its own bedroom, bathroom, kitchen and living space, allowing the property to function comfortably as multi-generational accommodation, a main residence with private guest quarters, or a home capable of welcoming visiting family and friends.
Under normal circumstances the property would present as a traditional three-bedroom family home. The current layout has been adapted purely to suit the vendors’ personal needs and could easily be returned to a more conventional arrangement if desired.

This adaptable layout offers immediate flexibility for buyers seeking either a spacious family home or a property capable of hosting guests independently.
Outbuildings and Additional Features
A number of characterful outbuildings enhance the property’s appeal and future potential.
A gîte project is already underway, with the upper floor awaiting completion, offering an excellent opportunity to develop holiday rental accommodation and generate income in this popular part of Normandy. The ground floor is already developed, registered, and currently rented out to guests on hosting platforms, demonstrating the property’s immediate income-generating potential.
The property also benefits from several additional structures which could lend themselves to further development (subject to the necessary permissions), making the estate particularly attractive for buyers looking to establish a small tourism or lifestyle business.
Outbuildings include:
Private chapel (approx. 20 m2) – a rare and charming feature that adds significant character and opens the door to creative possibilities such as themed stays, intimate events or wellbeing retreats.
Traditional barn – currently used for storage but equally suitable as a workshop, studio or space for a professional or creative activity. Its position away from the main house allows practical use without disturbing the living areas.
Large hangar with concrete floor – offering substantial covered space for vehicles, machinery, equipment or agricultural use.
Additional agricultural buildings – ideal for storage, workshop space or future projects.
Traditional bread oven – an attractive heritage feature typical of historic Normandy farmhouses. This charming stone-built oven reflects the property’s agricultural past and could potentially be restored for occasional use, outdoor cooking or as a unique focal point for entertaining.
The absence of immediate neighbours provides added flexibility, particularly where occasional activity, equipment use or business operations may be involved.
Land and Equestrian Potential
The property sits within approximately 9,682 m2 of land (just under one hectare) and includes gardens, mature trees, open pasture and countryside views.
For buyers seeking an equestrian property in Normandy, the land currently includes:
A stable
Three fully fenced paddocks, currently home to two ponies
This setup demonstrates that the paddocks comfortably support more than one animal and is well suited to horses, smallholding projects or hobby farming, while also offering a wonderful outdoor environment for family life and animals.
The peaceful setting and surrounding countryside may also lend itself to niche tourism projects such as wellbeing retreats or specialist holiday programmes, including initiatives designed for neurodiverse or special-needs guests, subject to relevant approvals.
Location
The property enjoys a quiet rural position while remaining conveniently connected to nearby towns and tourist destinations.
Distances include:
Saint-Hilaire-du-Harcouët – approx. 10 minutes
Avranches – approx. 35 minutes
Mont-Saint-Michel – approx. 45 minutes
This region of Normandy attracts millions of visitors every year, drawn by its historic villages, rolling countryside and proximity to the famous Mont-Saint-Michel bay.
A Property with Exceptional Versatility
Combining character, privacy, land and development potential, this Normandy countryside property offers a rare opportunity to create a lifestyle project tailored to a variety of ambitions. Whether envisioned as a peaceful family home, an equestrian retreat, a holiday rental business or a tourism venture, the property provides the space, flexibility and setting to bring those plans to life.
