EXCLUSIVE LISTING – JUST A FEW MINUTES FROM THE BEACHES OF THE ALABASTER COAST AND ÉTRETAT, LATE 16TH-CENTURY CHÂTEAU WITH OUTBUILDINGS IN A 25 HECTARES PARK WITH A POND AND AN ISLAND : In its vast English-style park, designed and planted in the 19th century, a rare 16th-century estate remodeled near the sea. The château, Louis XIII style, has a surface area of approximately 885 m². It features a south-facing façade that reveals the original manor as it likely appeared in the early 17th century. The central structure is topped with a high French-style slate roof, with the upper sections of the façade standing out. It is flanked by two corner turrets crowned with uniquely low domes. The brickwork gives way to an elaborate stone décor, including vermiculated rustication, panels, medallions, cornices, and sculpted pediments. An exquisite example of Norman Renaissance architecture. It was remodeled in the second half of the 19th century by its wealthy owner, a marquise, who had two significant wings built at the rear of the old manor. The property includes 135 m² of reception areas with a grand entrance and a remarkable staircase, 17 bedrooms, and 9 bathrooms. There are also 4 attic rooms and an attic. A set of cellars and storage areas totaling 345 m² in the basement. The park features centuries-old trees, a dovecote, a kennel, several outbuildings, a caretaker's pavilion, a walled vegetable garden with a "gardener's house," a monumental gate, and a pond with an island. Extensive restoration work is required, but the château has retained many original features, such as parquet floors, marble flooring, wood paneling, and fireplaces. A unique opportunity to acquire such an estate in an unspoiled 25 hectares landscaped park, free from nuisances and so close to the coast. The entire estate is just 200 kilometers from Paris and close to a train station for easy access. A rare opportunity for those ready to undertake a high-quality restoration according to their own vision. The right time, the right location for the discerning enthusiast !
