House buy in L'Hermenault Pays de la Loire

This detached & renovated 2-bed home has a manageable garden and plenty of parking. It is situated on the edge of the pretty village of L'Hermenault. With a good range of shops as well as a public swimming pool you have everything you need on the doorstep, as well as the main attractions of the Vendee close by. The house has plenty of character features. The lovely blue shutters give the house a very french feel and once inside, the exposed stone walls, wood-burning stove and wooden beams make the house feel cool in summer, but really warm and cozy in winter. The front door leads into the 35m2 sitting room where there is a lovely fireplace with the wood-burner. The fitted kitchen is up a few stairs on a slightly higher level along with the ultility/boiler room, the shower room with separate WC and the two good-sized bedrooms. Outside is a perfectly good-sized garden. The area is predominantly lawned, but there is a terrace area and some established fruit trees and a lovely wisteria. There is also plenty of parking and a shed. Up the road a bit is a veg patch for anyone hoping to hone their green-fingers. L'Hermenault is a small, pretty village with a surprising number of services given its size.

The village also has a stunning castle and mediaeval lavoirs. Many other traditional and original buildings can be found in the village. The surrounding countryside is typically french and very beautiful. With sunflower fields, lakes, pine forests, if you're looking for outdoor activities, this is a good base! There is plenty of horse-riding, wonderful walking and cycling trails, swimming and boating in nearby lakes and rivers. Fishing is also a common pastime in this area. The beautiful 15 Fontenay-le-Comte is just 15mins away and La Rochelle on the coast is just an hour's drive. This is a great spot to explore.
