Stone farmhouse in Normandy with stables and nearly 4 acres

It has been renovated by the previous and current owner to offer 4 bedroom family accommodation over 3 floors and is set up for equestrian enthusiasts with 4 internal stables and space to create more. Viewing is highly recommended.
It is situated in the southwest of Normandy, near the borders of Manche and Calvados, near Sourdeval. The town offers every amenity including two banks and supermarkets.
