Description:

A beautiful ground floor one-bedroom, one bathroom apartment in a listed 18th century 'Hotel Particulier' for sale in medieval part of Bayeux.

The apt is 54 square metres, with a magnificent walled garden behind (communal, but rarely used) just behind the seven-foot thick kitchen wall - which was the ramparts wall.
The apt has it's own walk-in large basement storage.

Seconds away from Paris style shops and restaurants, and plenty of schools, but as the area is extremely quiet, the apt is perfect for writer's.

The D-Day Normandy beaches and museums (including the main American cemetery) are between a few hundred yards to a few miles away.
Bayeux cathedral and the tapestry, is five to eight minutes walk away.

Carpiquet international airport is twenty minutes away, near the university town of Caen.
Flybe services flights to London. (At the time of writing - May 2016)

16 centimetre high mezzanine in the 22 foot living room. Mezzanine is big enough for a double bed.
The living-room has a sealed chimney opening that can be activated to install a stove or fireplace.
The whole apartment has been completely renovated, and the beamed ceiling painted white, and the bathroom redesigned. (The owner is a designer / writer).

No garage, but easy street parking, and garages for rent are easily found nearby.

The building is listed as the most beautiful address in Bayeux by the Tourist Office, and has a rich history: the building used to be a Joan of Arc school.
