    Manor Argentan (61)

    Réf.4545 : Near Argentan, a fine manor farm offering reception facilities and a table d’hôtes, for sale. In the winding roads of Suisse Normande, centuries have shaped an exceptional landscape dotted with remarkable residences, living witnesses to the ancient history of Normandy. From Argentan to the outskirts of Caen, Suisse Normande boasts an architectural and historical heritage that has been jealously preserved from the ravages of civilisation. As a result, numerous manor houses and châteaux have privatised protected natural areas, granting themselves undisturbed peace and serenity. This farmhouse-manor house is fully in keeping with this tradition of hospitality and conviviality, offering today an ideal setting for receiving guests, organising meals with locals and creating a characterful inn. An elegant outbuilding of the neighbouring castle, this dwelling displays all the characteristics of a fortified 'farm-manor house', whose numerous outbuildings mark the visceral attachment to the land that animated the lords who once lived here. The property benefits from a reassuring neighbourhood while retaining its much-appreciated privacy. Nature offers a breathtaking view free from any disturbances. Daily life is taken care of just a mile away (5 km), with the town of Argentan providing shopping, crafts, administrative and logistical services. Step into the authenticity of the Orne valleys, peaceful holiday destinations just two hours by train from the capital. Suisse Normande is a privileged corner of paradise... a secret that you should discover... and keep to yourself. The property has an imposing structure comprising 4 buildings arranged opposite each other to form a courtyard of honour. An arched porch joins two conical towers with archways. The buildings are large, built of stone with tiled roofs. The windows are of various sizes, in keeping with their respective functions. The defensive aspect is very marked, originally limiting openings to the outside. More recent alterations have made up for the risk of a lack of light. The property comprises a main building that has been converted into a dwelling, logistical outbuildings and areas reserved for animals. While the outbuilding directly adjoining the dwelling has retained its utilitarian character (garages, storeroom and attic), the building opposite has undergone a complete interior conversion (reception room, guest house, boiler room). The main dwelling, enriched by a terrace overlooking the horizon, exceptionally untouched by any nuisance, is a natural extension for outdoor lunches and dinners, in the heart of a listed site. With an interior surface area of around 280 sqm, the dwelling is distributed as follows: Ground floor: Tiled central entrance hall on the south side (9.45 sqm) giving access on the left to a vast paved lounge (64 sqm) with a dining area. Monumental contemporary fireplace. Exposed joists. (Ceiling height (HSP) 2.44 m) large bay windows opening onto the terrace, enhanced by a 'cathedral' space giving it a 'loft' feel. Rear access via a hallway leading to the tiled kitchen. Laundry room and WC set back. Kitchen with dining area (46 sqm), fitted under the sloping ceiling. Tiled floor. External exit. Rear access to a former one-car garage (4.40 x 3.20 m), converted into a workshop. 2.66 m high. Adjoining shed, accessed via an old paved fruit garden, with a second staircase leading down. Exterior exit via the gable. First floor: comfortable wooden 'meunier' stairway giving access to a vast 'cathedral' landing room with parquet flooring (57 sqm), with multiple uses (library/study/summer lounge). A stone staircase leads outside to the first floor of the adjoining outbuilding. Straight 'meunier' staircase leading to 2 mezzanine bedrooms linked by a footbridge. Access 1 to a shower room and separate WC. Bedroom 1 with parquet flooring (18 sqm). Lounge/music room with parquet flooring (30 sqm). Exposed timbers. Passageway 2 leads to a bathroom and separate WC. Bedroom 2 with parquet flooring (22 sqm). Exposed stone walls. Wooden staircase leading to 2 attic bedrooms (3 and 4) with parquet flooring, linked by a footbridge. The rear terrace is a good size, with stone paving, allowing access from either the living room or the kitchen. There is a separate storage room with an upper floor, served by a wooden staircase. Outbuildings ; 1/ OUTBUILDING 1: set back from the main dwelling, long building comprising on the ground floor a large room (61 sqm) with hexagonal floor tiles; exposed joists; exposed stone walls. 2.50 m high. There is an old walled-in door leading into the lounge of the dwelling, thus creating interesting potential for extension. The first floor comprises a vast attic (61 sqm) with a wooden floor. The basement is a good height for conversion. This attic can be accessed via an outside stone stairway. It could be converted into a study/library/summer lounge in the dwelling. A neutral area with no easements or overlooking features has been transferred to the neighbouring property by the previous owners. The same applies to the watchtower adjoining the garages. The interweaving of the outbuildings with the neighbouring manor house made this allocation possible, without detracting from the spirit of the whole, and without generating any disturbing cohabitation. This is followed by 2 garages with elegant arched openings. 2/ OUTBUILDING 2: Adjoining the entrance porch, a beautiful watchtower with archery, a perfect copy of its neighbour... watching out for approaching visitors! The adjoining building remains the property of the château and is used as a garage. 3/ OUTBUILDING 3: a long building located opposite outbuilding no. 1, which has been refurbished inside, as follows: A large reception room with parquet flooring, 133 m² in size, with an overall height of around 9 m, equipped with 2 podiums. This room was designed as an auditorium and is used for numerous musical gatherings. Whitewashed walls. A small kitchen is attached. At the rear is the wood silo for the boiler. Garage for 1 car (concrete slab), with a small stairway leading to an attic. Boiler room to follow: wood chip boiler. There is an old De Dietrich boiler (out of order) and a plastic oil tank. Electric hot water tank. WC. 4/ THE GUEST HOUSE: converted in 1994 from what was probably staff accommodation, it has undergone a complete and meticulous renovation to accommodate friends or passing guests. Ground floor: Living room with single stone fireplace (42 sqm) - Hexagonal terracotta floors - Lime rendered walls - Exposed joists - High ceilings (2.85 m). Bedroom 1 located in the tower (diameter 3.95m) - Tiled floor - lime rendered walls - plaster ceiling. Utility room with shower and WC - Hexagonal terracotta floor. Kitchen (10 sqm) - Hexagonal terracotta floor - lime plastered walls - Exterior exit. Small passageway with wooden spiral staircase. Bedroom 2 on the right (31 sqm) - Stone floor - Exposed joists - Washbasin. Small adjoining shower room - separate WC. 1st FLOOR: large bedroom 3 (32 sqm) with parquet flooring, bath, washbasin and WC. Exposed joists - lime rendered walls. 2.50 m high ceilings. Small central bedroom 4 (10 sqm) - Hexagonal floor tiles - Lime rendered walls. Single bed. Bedroom 5 with parquet flooring (43 sqm) - Wooden fireplace with overmantel. Sleeps 3. En-suite bathroom in the tower (diameter 3.95 m) - WC - Decorative frieze on the ceiling. WINDOW accessible by spiral staircase. Simple storeroom; not suitable for conversion. The property has retained its authenticity and benefits from a mixed view, thanks to its 'lantern' windows. The 4.94 acres plot is divided between a main courtyard and grasslands planted with a variety of fruit trees (apple, pear, mirabelle, plum, cherry and apricot). A vegetable garden is a reminder of the self-sufficient life of these manor farms... A beautiful pond of around 200 m² completes the setting, allowing a few wild ducks to nest peacefully in the shade of the protective ash trees. The surrounds are walled, and it is highly likely that the bottom is also paved. The grassland allow a few donkeys and horses to enjoy the generous anf abundant grass. A 9 x 3m wooden shelter provides shelter if needed, and stores essential hay. A kennel for dogs and chickens.... Good neighbourly relations could lead to additional adjoining grassland being made available. The immediate surroundings are flat, allowing the eye to wander over the wooded hills of the Orne valley, where civilisation has been forgotten, leaving the land to a rich and wild fauna. A characterful manor farm steeped in history, offering generous volumes, authenticity and an exceptional natural setting, ideally suited to a project as an inn, table d’hôtes or reception venue centred around dining, in the spirit of a warm and genuine welcome in a private home.

    Ref.4737 : Near the sea, 17th-C. townhouse with courtyard in Guérande (Loire Atlantique) In Loire Atlantique, the Guérande region is renowned for its natural beauty, diverse landscapes, salt marshes, numerous beaches and coves, and exceptional cuisine. It has everything you could want in an ideal place to live for those who appreciate the finer things in life and authenticity. The medieval city of Guérande is like a 'Carcassonne of the west'. But behind the stone belt of its solid ramparts, the slate roofs of the old houses confirm that this City of Art and History is indeed Celtic. It was awarded this label in 2004. Its beautiful opulence comes from the salt marshes, a magical and sparkling place.

A stair tower topped with a hipped roof completes the ensemble, while the exposed gables are magnified by finials. Inside, the house was restored in 2023: the current décor blends perfectly with the old character of the place, its high ceilings, parquet floors, monumental fireplaces and exposed beams. The place is warm, comfortable and elegant. The floor area is over 300 sqm. On the ground floor, an entrance hall leads to a large dining room with solid wood flooring, a huge fireplace and exposed beams. There is a cosy kitchen with a recently fitted kitchen.

    Castle Chalus (87)

    Ref. 4718: castle with guest house for sale 40km from Limoges (Haute-Vienne department). The property is situated close to Châlus, a small Limousin town renowned as the place where Richard the Lionheart met his end. It lies in the département of Haute-Vienne, 40 km south-west of Limoges, its Limoges-Bénédictins railway station (Paris–Toulouse line), and an international airport, Limoges-Bellegarde, which offers regular flights to Lyon, Marseille, London, Bristol, Leeds, Manchester and the Midlands. The area, which forms part of the Périgord–Limousin Regional Natural Park, is known as the Pays des Feuillardiers, after the craftsmen who traditionally produced chestnut-wood hoops (feuillards) used for barrel-making. It is a lively region whose economic activity is centred on forestry, agriculture and tourism. Its gently undulating landscapes, cloaked in deep forests and interlaced with numerous streams, are especially appreciated by walkers, sports enthusiasts, river anglers and lovers of history. Both local residents and those who have settled here from elsewhere — including a vibrant British community — enjoy an excellent quality of life. The château presents itself as the harmonious composition of three buildings from different periods. On the ground floor, approached through the small North door, one finds to the right the hall, an antechamber, the kitchen, and a passageway leading to the utility–boiler room and WC, the television room, and the music room. This is where the arched doorway giving access to the terrace and park is located. From the music room, a few steps lead to the reception rooms — the drawing rooms and dining room — two remarkable spaces distinguished by their magnificent decorative features. In addition, both the drawing room and the music room are equipped with wood-burning stoves. Returning to the half-landing overlooking the entrance hall, one reaches the upper floors via the majestic oak staircase. On the first floor, arranged over two half-levels, there is a study–library and five bedrooms, three of which have their own bathroom and WC, while the remaining two share a bathroom. On the second floor, reached via a winding staircase, there are two bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms and WCs, together with an attic. Ouitbuildings : Separated from the château by a lime-tree avenue and a long natural hedge, an extensive Limousin-style barn contains a self-contained two-storey dwelling, suitable for use as a guest cottage or caretaker’s house. It comprises a sitting room, a kitchen–dining room, four bedrooms, and two shower rooms with WCs. In addition to the cottage, this impressive 60-metre barn offers, on the lower level: a wood store, a garage, a stable with four loose boxes, and various workshops. The upper level consists of large open spaces, inviting the future owners to give free rein to their imagination. A small separate pavilion, situated at the western corner of the barn, was originally a laundry. It has been fully restored and converted into a charming artist’s studio. Lastly, adjoining the sixteenth-century wing, a vast pergola set on a large south-facing tiled terrace provides an additional living area complementing the château. Access to the property is through an imposing gateway set into the wall that encloses part of its perimeter. The château, positioned on a small promontory, overlooks a vast English-style park that slopes gently down towards a stream meandering through the estate’s woodland. A delightful “English river” (a man-made water feature) fed by a natural spring, together with a generously sized swimming pool, further enhances the grounds. Set slightly apart, a tree-lined meadow would be well suited to accommodating horses. The estate extends to almost eight and a half hectares in total.

This unspoilt setting invites you to slow down, breathe deeply and be surprised by a heritage of unexpected richness. Here, every turn in the road tells a story, and this mill is a testament to that. Located, more precisely, in Crépy-en-Valois, in the south of the Picardy region, it is nonetheless close to Paris. By car or train, the capital is less than an hour away. And heading north, 25 km away, lies Compiègne with its château, as well as the Château de Pierrefonds. It is a region of incredible richness in terms of its environment, culture and heritage. The town of Crépy-en-Valois has a population of 15,000 and offers all the facilities and services needed for people of all ages to thrive. Upon entering the ground floor, you are greeted by a spacious 125 sqm reception room, comprising a kitchen that opens onto the dining room and a lounge area. A four-sided glass-fronted insert fireplace forms the centrepiece of the room. Two staircases, situated on either side, lead to the upper floors, whilst a third leads to the cellar. To the right of the entrance, a hallway with a wardrobe leads to a utility room, which opens onto a bathroom with a toilet. A separate toilet completes this level. The first floor comprises a living room/playroom, whose ceiling—partially open to the upper floor—creates a lovely sense of space. It also includes a bedroom with a shower room and toilet, as well as a two-room suite with its own shower room and toilet. An additional, more private room could be converted into a kitchen to create a separate living area. On the second floor, there is a spacious landing area and a two-room suite, complete with a shower room and a toilet. On the third floor, a loft-style living room with exposed beams leads to four bedrooms, two of which have en-suite bathrooms and toilets, as well as a separate bathroom with a toilet. In the basement, the mill reveals a remarkably well-preserved ancient mechanism, the true centrepiece of the site. Fed by the stream that runs through the property, the millstream flows directly beneath the building, having once powered the water wheel. Here, one can still see the imposing original gears, with their wooden and metal teeth, as well as the drive shaft that converted the force of the water into mechanical energy. Steeped in history, the whole site offers a striking insight into the traditional workings of mills of yesteryear. This authentic space, combining both technical and heritage aspects, is a rare gem for lovers of places with character. Covering an area of 7,000 m², the walled grounds offer an idyllic setting with a peaceful atmosphere. They consist of extensive lawns dotted with beautiful trees of various species, creating a play of light and shadow throughout the seasons. Two branches of the river meander harmoniously through the property, lending the site a sense of freshness, charm and poetry. The natural riverbanks, perfect for relaxation, invite you to make the most of this exceptional setting, where the presence of water gives the garden a lively and authentic character. A unique place, ideal for lovers of nature and tranquillity, where the murmur of the river accompanies daily life. An old stone dovecote, currently in a state of disrepair, could be restored to provide additional living space.

    Réf. 4821: 19th-century château near Saint-Nazaire and Saint-Brevin. The property is situated in Loire-Atlantique, away from the hustle and bustle, between the Loire and the Atlantic. It is very close to a village of over 3,000 inhabitants which offers all essential amenities. Marshes, hedgerows and vast horizons form a vibrant landscape, comprising remarkable protected natural areas. This landscape is punctuated by the Loire and the Martinière maritime canal, which is within walking distance of the property. Whilst enjoying a preserved environment, the property is nevertheless close to the highly dynamic economic hubs of Nantes and Saint-Nazaire, as well as the pretty Loire port of Paimboeuf. Here, you can enjoy walks or bike rides, explore along the waterways, and get involved in local community life… All of which invite you to slow down, recharge your batteries and enjoy a pleasant living environment not far from the ocean. The property is situated in a rural setting. A gate opens onto a small path leading to the château, set within wooded grounds. This residence is distinguished by its late 19th-century architecture, typical of those elegant, characterful houses inspired by the eclectic style, where classical rigour blends with decorative whimsy. The coat of arms of the former owners is visible on the triangular pediment of the façade. The perfectly proportioned façade is organised around a distinct central axis, emphasised by a slightly projecting bay. This is crowned by a richly ornamented pointed gable, a true architectural signature, incorporating brickwork patterns, geometric motifs and small arched openings, which enliven the composition. The whole structure rests on light-coloured rendered masonry, punctuated by a frame of exposed red bricks. This contrast, both understated and graphic, subtly highlights the openings, the corner ties and the horizontal bands, giving the façade a structured appearance, reinforced by the tall windows, arranged over two levels, which lend verticality and elegance. The interior covers an area of 374 sqm. The original features have been preserved, including parquet flooring, wood panelling, mouldings and ceiling rosettes. The rooms are bright. There is plenty of storage space. The cellar, which covers approximately 50% of the house’s floor area, will appeal to wine enthusiasts. On the ground floor: An entrance hall leads to a kitchen, utility room, dining room, living room, toilet and laundry room. On the mezzanine level: storage room. On the first floor, the landing leads to 4 bedrooms, a bathroom, a dressing room, a shower room, hallways and a toilet. On the second floor: the landing leads to 3 bedrooms, 2 shower rooms, a large playroom, a toilet and storage space. Top floor: a large, light-filled attic office with exposed beams. Outbuildings : A large building of around 120 sqm, with a fibre-cement roof. A small garage with a tiled roof. The estate’s grounds cover just over a hectare, offering an unspoilt natural setting. A lawn stretches out around the château, ideal for relaxation and outdoor receptions. A pond punctuates the landscape, adding a touch of freshness, in which the silhouettes of ancient trees—mighty oaks and stately cedars—are reflected. The eye wanders towards the surrounding meadows, offering a sense of space.

This beautiful manor house, a proud testament to its rich past, was remodelled in the 18th-C. and has retained all its rural charm, with a certain timeless elegance. Beyond the daily amenities largely provided by the nearby towns of Sées and Argentan, this property enjoys an ideal location offering quick access to road, motorway and rail networks. In this land of rich pastures, apple orchards, clear springs and forests, nature exudes a way of life imbued with tranquillity and well-being, recognised by all who let themselves be carried away here for a trip, a holiday… or a lifetime.

Water and electricity are available in the bakery. - ‘La Longère’: situated at right angles to the bakery, facing east. A former stone dwelling with a tiled roof, comprising on the ground floor: 2 rooms (bedrooms) / a living area with a fireplace – terracotta floor tiles and beautiful exposed oak joists. An adjoining former kitchen. A final separate room is currently used as a workshop. The upper floor comprises a full attic, potentially convertible, with two windows. The property has a total floor area of 105 sqm. - ‘The large outbuilding’: a stone structure with a tiled roof, approximately 299 sqm, situated alongside the manor house. It comprises, from left to right: a former cattle shed – concrete floor; a ‘cathedral-style’ barn (for storing wood and materials) – earthen floor; a storeroom (with 2 concrete block pens); a former wine press, with access to a fodder loft – earthen floor. At the rear of this building, set at right angles, is a row of around ten hutches, probably used for rabbits… The building is in good condition and features an elegant tiled roof. - ‘The shed’: a 206 sqm structure with a standing-seam metal roof, used for storing equipment. All outbuildings are well maintained and show no signs of disrepair. Finally, it is worth noting the presence of a tower resembling a dovecote, conceived and designed by the owners in 2014. Beautifully crafted, though modern, it features a hipped roof by a small viewing platform and enhanced by a dormer window. Everyone will find the most suitable use for it… The site has been divided into three distinct sections, which can be described as follows: The northern entrance, leading to the road and an iron gate supported by tall, ornate pillars. Visitors are then guided along a gravel path lined with young trees, leading to a second gate adjacent to the tower. The grounds are adorned with lawns, giving an impression of excellent overall maintenance and a strong sense of security. The inner courtyard: accessed via a third gate to the east. The entrance spans the remains of an old moat leading to a pond, which has been partially filled in, leaving no trace… The courtyard is gravelled, spacious and practical. A fountain stands proudly in its centre… Sheltered by a low wall, one can make out the remains of a former vegetable garden, waiting for a green-fingered owner to restore it… The property’s inner courtyard is now fully secured by its surrounding walls and the presence of the moat. The pastures: accessible via a gate adjoining the stables, a large grassy pasture provides a lovely space for horses, goats or sheep… In the shade of a cluster of trees, a secluded pond remains a favourite spot for ducks and the many roe deer that visit from the surrounding woodland…. The view is unobstructed, full of perspective and free from any visual disturbances…. It should be noted that good neighbourly relations allow for a mutual arrangement regarding the annual mowing of the meadows, in the absence of horses. The entire property comprises a single plot of land measuring 5 acres, free from any easements.
