This house is ideal for someone looking for a property that needs modernisation as there is work to do and it could be considered 'a project'. It is in need of redecoration, the current electrical system is basic, the septic tank needs replacing, the heating system requires an overhaul and the windows are single-glazed.
Location:
The property is situated within the Crequoise valley, part of the Seven Valleys region. The Seven Valleys is very picturesque and is dotted with rolling hills, rivers and forests. It was recently described by the Sunday Times as Northern France's 'best kept secret'.
Nearby is the vibrant market town of Fruges. Here you'll find a good selection of shops, restaurants and a supermarket. The excellent weekly produce market takes place on Saturday morning.
The lovely beach at Berck is 40mins away and the fashionable resort of Le Touquet is slightly further up the coast. The larger towns of Hesdin and Montreuil are both within easy reach and the ferry port and Eurotunnel are about an hour away.
