luxury real estate for sale Fontaine-le-Pin, France

A 16th-century manor house and its wooded garden in the Suisse Normande region, 15 minutes from Falaise. Opposite the imposing 12th-century church of Saint-Martin, a wrought-iron gateway adorned with fine lance-point balusters and flanked by a Caen stone pillar topped by a gendarme opens onto a tree-lined driveway. A courtyard and terrace surround the manor house, which has an adjoining outbuilding on one side. On the opposite side, a gate leads to the back of the property and the garden planted with hundred-year old trees.

A large townhouse to be renovated, from the 16th and 17th centuries, with outhouses divided into apartments, nestled in the town of Falaise in Normandy’s Calvados department. The property stands on a calm street. The old edifice was doubtless an important home at the time of the Catholic League of France – a major participant in the French Wars of Religion. As early as in the 14th century, this part of the town was home to the burghers of Guibray – a district of Falaise. Their land initially belonged to the abbots of the local Abbey of Saint John. Fairs were held here and there were many inns in this district too. The house was probably one of those inns. It is set back from a small square that still bears the name of one of the members of the Catholic League of France in Falaise, from the time of the French Wars of Religion. Nicknamed the Hôtel du Grand Coq, the edifice was later the home of a wealthy parliamentarian. It lies near Notre-Dame de Guibray church and is tucked away on a well-preserved historical street, a short stroll from specialist food shops and amenities. On the street side, the noble edifice has an appearance that is typical of the 16th and 17th centuries. The structure is more wide than tall and is made of Caen stone. On the court side, the building is made up of three dwellings that form a square courtyard, half of which was later linked to the initial dwelling. The edifice’s rear elevation bears witness to the redesigns that have taken place over the course of the centuries: there are corbels, roof slopes and the remains of a tower that was reduced in height and which dates back to at least the 16th century. On the left, a stone elevation is coated with rendering in the modern part. Beyond it, there is a small outhouse with a slate roof and two small-paned windows. Lastly, with its back to the street and leading out through the rear elevation of the main dwelling, there is a former forge that has been converted into a dwelling. It has seven windows. From the court, steps lead to the back of the plot. The property’s walls enclose the whole plot. In the central court, low walls demarcate different small gardens. To the right of main section, on the court side, there is a timber gallery that connects to the different apartments on the first floor.

Proximity to major roads and means of communication make it easy to get around. Functional, this property is ideal for family and professional projects, whether as a primary or secondary residence, or even as a holiday home. The priory takes the form of a relatively square enclosure, enclosed by four main buildings arranged around a courtyard of honour and completed by protective stone walls. In the background are the church and the ruins of an imposing tithe barn. The only entrance is to the south via two superb 4th-century ogival doors, one reserved for carts, the other for pedestrians. The main dwelling is adjoined by a double angled building, now used for events. The main dwelling features an almost identical three-storey stone façade, topped by a tiled roof. The overall effect is one of classicism, with perfectly symmetrical openings. The entrance is modest, with a simple ogival door in the center of the dwelling. With a living area of around 180 sqm excluding attic space, the dwelling is distributed as follows : Ground floor : small entrance facing a straight, simple staircase. To the right, dining room with stone fireplace and wood-burning stove (terracotta floor tiles / lime-rendered walls). Kitchen and scullery to follow (terracotta floor tiles). WC (terracotta floor tiles). Left, living room with large stone fireplace and wood-burning stove (carpeting / exposed stone and plaster / painted joists). Room to follow, currently used as storeroom. First floor : landing and corridor leading to three bedrooms with parquet flooring, one of which adjoins a bathroom. Access to the attic, which is largely convertible. The overall structure is in good condition, with some finishing work in progress. Ceiling heights range from 2.42 m to 2.48 m on the ground floor and 2.66 m on the first floor. The outbuildings: 1. APPENDIX : located back from the dwelling, this consists of two adjoining stone buildings, one of which has two levels. The main part is a vast cathedral-shaped reception room of 120 sqm, which can accommodate up to 100 guests. An adjoining room can accommodate up to fifteen guests in a more quiet setting. Disabled WC. Fully equipped professional kitchen. Legally compliant safety standards. Rear access for caterer. The first floor features a vast dormitory with a dozen beds, water/shower facilities and high-quality WC. The dormitory is a luminous space, adorned with beautiful period floor tiles, and benefits from a roof structure of rare and atypical beauty. An overhanging bedroom is reserved for 'newlyweds' ... who cannot be guaranteed perfect privacy! A terrace can be accessed from the dormitory, probably the former priest's room, adjoining the church, but now open to the sky... with only a beautiful monumental fireplace to decorate it. 2. SAINT-PIERRE CHURCH : the first stone dates back to 1072, with completion probably in the 14th century. Listed as a historic monument in 1929, it was long neglected and doomed to oblivion until the end of the 20th century, when the Bâtiments de France carried out a conservative-style renovation. The column capitals, vaults and windows are elegantly crafted. The capitals are adorned with beaded tracery, canelure or gadroons, flowers, foliage and other varied ornamentation. The arched windows are adorned on the outside with a beaded torus that frames them completely. The church has now been rescued and largely restored, and the floor can now boast flagstones, which the owner of the premises has made available by chance or by judicious research. 3. THE DIME BARN: slightly set back from the church, the ruins of this immense building remain, and will now be difficult to save. 4. THE OUTBUILDING: located on the courtyard side, this large building was probably designed to house the farm's animals. It consists of two separate parts, all in good condition and recently re-shingled. Attic. The floor area is around 100 sqm. 5. AUVENT: located right next to the main entrance, it now serves as a perfect carport. Its less noble Eternit roofing stands out, and will be the subject of a forthcoming estimate.

Within the walls, the South brings light and warmth… A few trees and fruit trees adorn the surroundings, while roses and Virginia creeper add color to the buildings. An old kitchen garden awaits restoration of its surrounding walls and the 'green thumb' who will bring it back to life. The whole property covers around 4 hectares, including just over one hectare within the city limits. The owner is open to negotiations for a further fifteen hectares or so. NB : a wind farm project is planned for around 1.5 km to the south of the property. This situation should not affect the current view, which benefits from the presence of the building adjoining the porch. Current operating costs of around 7840 euros (table of charges available) IR credit of 2000 euros - Monument historique status.

Two 18th-century houses joined together to form a single property with a tree-dotted garden, nestled in the historical town of Falaise in Normandy. The road on which the property lies is currently being revived. It used to be set back from Falaise’s commercial vibrancy, even though it is near the town centre. Today it has more life in it. Not far away, there is Saint-Gervais-Saint-Protais Church, an 11th-century edifice listed as a historical monument. The home dates back to the 18th century. It is the result of two buildings being joined together. Plots like the ones on which these buildings were made often belonged to religious communities. At the end of France’s Ancien Régime, many of these plots were divided up, sold and turned into homes. For owners, they represented investments as they brought in rent paid by the families living in them. The upper-middle classes of Falaise settled on this street. You can see this in the elegant appearance of the edifices that stand along it. Indeed, on this road, there are still sumptuous townhouses with gardens and courts. The property’s street-side facade faces north-west. One of the buildings of this unified property has a second floor and the other one has a third floor. The plain facades, main of Caen stone, are rendered. The home’s gabled slate roofs each have a chimney stack. They are dotted with roof windows too. On the ground floor, the left-hand building has a glazed double door and a garage door and the right-hand building has a front door and a window fitted with metal shutters. These openings fill the interior with natural light. On the upper floors, there are four windows in the left-hand building and six in the other. These windows were recently replaced. You can see their original surrounds of exposed stone. Further to the right, there is a covered carriage entrance where there is a secondary exit door. And at the back of the property, the ground floor has a half-open gallery with a terrace and an arbour. It looks out at a south-east-facing court with vegetation and a pond. Exposed Caen stone has been preserved on this side. From the secret tree-dotted garden, you can admire a view of a 19th-century building.

An 18th and 19th-century chateau with outbuildings on 4-hectare grounds, nestled within the Pays du Houlme region and surrounded by the wooded countryside of the Orne department. The chateau de la Motte or “chateau of the Mound” owes its name to the presence of an ancient medieval mound, today gone, the location of which was situated near the property’s northern entrance. Built over 15th-century vestiges, which are still visible today, the current chateau was mainly constructed in the 17th century, while the symbolist poet Remy de Gourmont, a precursor to the Nouveau roman, was born within the chateau’s very walls a century later. Three minutes from the nearby town, a tree-lined avenue of more than 400 metres leads to the property’s enclosure wall, accessible via a stately wrought-iron gate, flanked by stone pillars topped with capitals, as well as an adjacent pedestrian door. Opposite, a caretaker’s cottage watches over the entrance to the property, which is then followed by the former main courtyard in front of the chateau, while a 19th-century greenhouse was built in a corner formed by the chateau, a gallery and an artist’s studio. In addition, a few outbuildings surround the former courtyard and, to the north, the grounds also include a restored chapel and an agricultural storage building. Lastly, woods, a pond and a former garden surrounded by water-filled moats extend to the west of the property.

A listed 14th-century monastic guesthouse, with almost 2 hectares of grounds in the Falaise region, on the borders of Normandy. Located in La Hoguette, the former Cistercian abbey of Saint-André-en-Gouffern was founded by Guillaume Talvas in 1130.

Today, some fine remnants of the complex remain, bearing witness to its former splendour, such as its monastic guesthouse.
