Chalet Güttinger: A Historic Gem in the heart of Saint-Gatien forest
Just 15 minutes from the hustle and bustle of Deauville and 3 mins from Pennedepie Beach, discover Chalet Güttinger, a historic treasure nestling in a verdant haven that offers complete peace and quiet and a bewitching sea view.
Built in about 1820 by Ulrich Güttinger, an emblematic Swiss Romantic writer, this Helvetian-inspired chalet boasts a balcony-walkway and overhanging roof. Once surrounded by rhododendrons, hydrangeas and a luxuriant garden with greenhouses, a vegetable garden and an orchard, the chalet has provided the setting for famous horticultural festivals and literary and artistic events, attracting the likes of Victor Hugo, Alfred de Musset, Charles-Augustin Sainte-Beuve, Alexandre Dumas, Charles Baudelaire, Théophile Gautier, Frédéric Chopin and Gustave Flaubert. You can still feel their presence, like whispered reminders of their timeless works.
In addition to the main chalet, now with walled-in windows and awaiting restoration, is a guest house, both stood on about 8.5 hectares (19.8 acres) of wooded grounds. Each building has a story to tell, from the holiday camps of the 1950s to the artistic effervescence of the 19th century.
Listed as a historic monument for its roof and façades, this estate offers a unique opportunity for history and nature enthusiasts. Guided by our specialist heritage architect, who will know how to modernise this listed property in line with your needs, breathe new life into this site with a rich past, where the murmur of leaves and birdsong provide a soothing melody, and where the sea, like a backdrop, adds to the magic of the place.
Chalet Güttinger is waiting for the person who will know how to bring its soul back to life, preserve its heritage and add a touch of modernity. A project for visionaries, history and nature lovers, a chance to own a piece of the French heritage.
Alfred de Musset wrote about it in his private correspondence in these terms: “I am writing to you from Chalet de Güttinguer, where I have been for two days and where I would like to see you. I am under the spell of the Châlet and its forest. It's magnificent now. All day long I gaze at the sea, which is very nearby, as an onlooker watches water flow. I am dazzled by all these splendours”.
