Ref 4916: Elegant, stately Norman residence situated 14 km from Argentan This elegant Norman manor house is situated at the northern tip of the Orne department, on the border with Calvados, from which it is separated by just a few leagues. Set apart from a village of some 530 inhabitants, it enjoys a pleasant rural setting, featuring a wooded park bordered by a small river running along the edge of the property.

Modest in size, yet imbued with an authenticity that echoes centuries past, this property exudes charm through its simplicity… drawing the passing guest into an irresistible vision of life. The main building features a quadrangular stone structure, rising four storeys high, topped by a hipped roof of flat tiles. A monumental chimney and a chimney breast lend the whole building a sense of balance and harmony, thereby breaking up the austerity of the architecture. A spiral staircase beautifully complements the north façade. Arrow slits serve as a reminder of the building’s defensive nature, whilst the mullioned windows bear witness to the first alterations carried out as early as the 17th century. The whole is a coherent, charming and authentic ensemble… a beautiful chapter in history… a fine example of Normandy’s rich heritage. With a living area of 161 sqm, the house is laid out as follows: Ground floor: main entrance on the south-west façade, opening onto a tiled living/dining room with a fan-vaulted ceiling, featuring a monumental stone fireplace incorporating an old bread oven. The keystone is carved with three fish. High ceilings at 3 metres. Access to a small guardhouse on the mezzanine level via a curious, very narrow stone staircase.

The property enjoys a rural setting, where the landscape is naturally landscaped, with three-hundred-year-old oaks, chestnut trees and ash trees growing side by side… not to mention the inevitable apple trees… or the rather unexpected kiwi trees. ‘La Gronde’ stream runs partly around the property, offering enthusiasts a peaceful spot for fishing. The property retains its privacy thanks to the old vegetable garden wall, which shields it from any view from the neighbourhood. A winding path runs along the edge of this lush plot, covering nearly 50 ares, guiding the guest towards the exit.

Réf. 4754 : Beautiful country house for sale near Argentan This elegant Norman residence is located at the northern edge of the Orne department, on the threshold of neighbouring Calvados, from which it is separated by only a few leagues. Set on the outskirts of a small market town of some 530 inhabitants, it enjoys a pleasant rural environment, punctuated by a tree-filled park partially bordered by water-filled moats. Everyday necessities are available within the village itself, which offers a local convenience store, while the towns of Falaise and Argentan, equidistant from the property, provide a wider range of shops and services. Road, motorway and rail links are all close at hand, allowing access to the capital in under three hours. A wealth of leisure activities—including hiking, climbing, canoeing, horse riding, fishing, golf and cycling along greenways—can be enjoyed throughout the remarkable sites of nearby “Norman Switzerland”. Human in scale yet offering multiple possibilities for extension limited only by the imagination, this property, rich in authenticity and understated elegance, lends itself equally well to private or professional projects, whether as a permanent residence or a country retreat. The property remains true to its origins, as evidenced by the sobriety and symmetry of its façades, which reflect an architectural quality worthy of the Grand Siècle. Built over three levels around a central entrance framed by two pilasters, and topped with a four-pitched tiled roof featuring an elegant pediment crowned with a finial, the main body reveals local stone construction coated with a striking and unusual “remarkable charcoal-rendered finish”. The openings are arranged in regular bays, of generous proportions, and fitted with shutters. The façades are perfectly symmetrical. It should be noted that the south-facing façade was most likely the original formal entrance, given the sculpted decorative elements adorning the doorway. Nevertheless, the ornamental garden is located on the north side, thus reversing the traditional layout. The main residence is flanked by two adjoining buildings of lesser height: one possibly intended as staff accommodation, the other originally dedicated to cider production. Offering an internal surface area of approximately 334 sqm, the main house is laid out as follows: Basement: A certain Bacchus would not have overlooked it: the basement is limited to a small wine cellar. Ground floor: A natural entrance on the north-east side, arranged in “double depth”, also allowing access from the south-west. North-East side: Entrance hall leading, on the right, to a small wood-panelled sitting room/library with a fine stone fireplace featuring an overmantel; generous ceiling height with exposed joists. On the left, access to a dining room with terracotta floor tiles, panelling, and a fireplace with an overmantel. South-West side: Entrance hall with a stone staircase. To the right, a kitchen with terracotta floor tiles, a monumental stone fireplace, and generous ceiling height with exposed joists. To the left, a large drawing room with tiled flooring in a cabochon style, a marble fireplace with overmantel, and painted wood panelling. Access to the upper floor is via an elegant stone staircase with wooden balustrades, leading to a landing and arrival area paved with terracotta tiles. The ceiling height on this level reaches an impressive 3.30 metres. First floor: A landing leads to four bedrooms of approximately 20 sqm each, with terracotta tiles or parquet flooring and exposed beams. Each features a stone fireplace with an overmantel. One of the bedrooms adjoins a storage room set beneath the eaves. There is a separate bathroom and WC on this level. One of the bedrooms provides a connection to the adjoining wing of the house via a staircase, leading to a half-landing and a small apartment comprising a bedroom, an ancillary room and a shower room with WC. Second floor: Accessible via a miller’s ladder, this level offers a vast convertible attic made up of three rooms of almost identical proportions, separated by load-bearing walls. Exposed roof trusses, insulated intermediate joists, existing electrical installation, and floors of cob or timber boarding complete this level, which offers significant potential for further development. Outbuildings : Adjoining the main residence, a small stone outbuilding under a tiled roof comprises, on the ground floor, a technical room of approximately 60 sq m housing the oil-fired boiler, the heat pump, electrical panels and the hot water cylinder. The upper floor has been converted into a self-contained apartment. 1/ A large barn of 112 sqm, featuring a “cathedral-style” roof structure, adjoins a former cider press measuring approximately 56 sqm. 2/ A row of three small stone outbuildings under tiled roofs, respectively used as: a fruit store (6 sqm), a byre (15 sqm), stables (22 sqm). 3/ A fine stone barn under a tiled roof, aligned with the main residence, currently used as a hangar (44 sqm) and garages (72 sqm). A miller’s staircase leads to a full-length attic above. The potential offered by the outbuildings is considerable, providing a wealth of possibilities likely to appeal to the most creative or ambitious projects. The welcoming main entrance, located to the North-East, is both understated and elegant, immediately revealing the harmony of an English-style landscaped park. From here, the eye is drawn in the distance to the fine proportions of this noble residence and its neighbouring outbuildings. No tree is left to the imagination, as all are present: sequoia, American red oak, maple, poplar, weeping beech, bald cypress, larch, lime, tulip tree, magnolia, liquidambar and pine, not to mention several fruit trees including walnut, plum and pear. The park features flower beds, bamboo, natural hedges and extends as far as the terraces of the house, attractively enhanced by hydrangeas. Beautiful water-filled moats, stone-lined and fed by natural springs, complete the setting, partially encircling the park. A charming former washhouse punctuates the natural course of the banks, also serving as an overflow outlet. Carp and eels share this aquatic haven. The South-facing façade is more restrained, structured around the outbuildings and remnants of old walls recalling the former presence of agricultural buildings that likely did not survive the ravages of war. It is worth noting the presence of what is now referred to as a “service” entrance, benefiting from a favourable right of way for the property. This entrance provides access to all the outbuildings. Set within a landholding of approximately 2.47 acres, the property offers the appeal of a verdant, open and charming landscape, while keeping maintenance requirements within a reasonable and manageable scope.

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.

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.
