In Normandy, at the heart of a preserved countryside, less than two hours from Paris and only forty-five minutes from the elegant seaside resorts of Deauville and Trouville, near Bernay, renowned for its remarkable heritage, and Orbec, a charming Little City of Character, Rouen Sotheby's International Realty offers you this charming residence. Built around 1640 and expanded a century later, it has traversed the ages without losing any of its character. Sheltered from all nuisances, this authentic country house is set in a bucolic setting of approximately 1.4 hectares of meadow, including nearly 3000m2 of delicately composed English garden featuring topiary art, flowering beds, and green perspectives. The ensemble provides a peaceful and refined setting, faithful to the spirit of the character properties of the neighboring Pays d'Auge. Erected according to traditional Norman architecture, the residence immediately charms with the elegance of its half-timbering, its brick and flint foundations, as well as the harmony of its volumes. A testament to a rural way of life inherited from the 17th century, it has preserved all the authenticity and charm of old houses: exposed beams, noble materials, and a warm atmosphere combine naturally. Developing about 175m2 of living space, the house is organized fluidly and conviviality. The ground floor features a large dining room in a 'Family room' spirit, a true reception area, an intimate lounge adorned with ancient beams, a decorative fireplace, and integrated closets, as well as a fitted and equipped kitchen. Guest toilets and two staircases, legacies of successive eras, complete this level. The first floor serves two cozy bedrooms, a bathroom with toilets, a laundry-linen space, and an attic area. On a half-level, a generous master suite boasts a dressing area, an en-suite bathroom, and toilets. The second level, under the eaves, offers approximately 50m2 of attics to invest in: the original frame, in perfect condition, will naturally welcome a final floor of bedrooms or a large living space under the roofs, bringing the living area to more than 220m2. A cellar accessible from the back of the house and an open garage complete the property, which also benefits from an ancient press to be restored, a precious witness to the rural heritage of Normandy and the cider-making history of the region. Bright and welcoming, this charming property will appeal to nature lovers seeking a character residence, close to the shops of Bernay and its train station allowing access to Paris Saint-Lazare, at the gates of the Pays d'Auge.
