Ref.4968 : Between Saint-Lô and Bayeux, beautiful 18th-C. manor house with for sale a swimming pool, tennis court and equestrian facilities This 18th-century manor house lies between Bayeux and Saint-Lô, in a rolling, rural landscape, almost on the edge of a state forest. Just 2 h 45 from Paris and only 10 minutes from shops and services, it enjoys a location that is both easily accessible and remarkably unspoilt. Hidden at the end of its long drive, it remains invisible from the small country lane that serves it, giving it a pleasant sense of seclusion. Built in 1722, the manor house displays a sober, well-ordered architecture typical of 18th-century country residences. Rectangular in plan, its rubble schist facades rise beneath a tall slate gable roof punctuated by chimney stacks. The regularity of its openings, its balanced proportions and the absence of ornament give it an elegant simplicity. On the courtyard side, it faces the former farm buildings; at the rear, its facade opens onto the garden, the terrace and the swimming pool. With approximately 340 sqm of living space, the house is arranged over three levels. Its recent restoration has preserved the main features of its age — beamed ceilings, fireplaces, wood panelling, parquet floors and a handsome wooden staircase — while introducing a resolutely contemporary approach. Large windows, light colours and the care taken over the fittings create bright interiors, where the rustic character of some period features contrasts with a sophisticated and at times daring decor. On the ground floor, the main entrance and its majestic staircase lead to the reception rooms. To the right are a large dining room, a study and a separate WC; to the left, a vast drawing room with fireplace, a second dining room and a contemporary fitted kitchen. The kitchen opens onto a back kitchen, then onto a service entrance with a second staircase and a shower room. The rooms have retained their fine proportions and impressive exposed beams, particularly in the reception areas. On the first floor, the landing of the main staircase leads, on one side, to a master suite comprising a large bedroom and a spacious bathroom with bath, shower and WC; on the other, to a second suite with bedroom and bathroom with WC. A dressing room completes this arrangement. A third bedroom, independent of this layout, is reached via the service staircase. The second floor comprises two further suites, each with its own bathroom and WC. Here the restoration strikes its balance through a dialogue between eras: the old beams, fireplaces and parquet floors give the rooms their character, while the contemporary fittings bring comfort, light and a distinctive personality to the house. Around the courtyard stand several outbuildings, some of which have been fully converted while others have retained their agricultural use. The former dovecote, of approximately 60 sqm, has been converted into an independent dwelling arranged over three levels. The ground floor houses a living room with fitted kitchen; the first floor, a bedroom and a shower room with WC; the second floor, a further bedroom. Fully restored in the same contemporary spirit as the manor house, it retains all its character thanks to its circular rooms, beams and exposed stonework. A first farm building houses two large loose boxes, with the possibility of creating up to four, as well as several barns. A second farm building includes a barn of particularly generous proportions, offering many conversion possibilities. Finally, near the swimming pool, a cottage of approximately 20 sqm, comprising one room and a shower room, is currently used as a gym. The property extends over 14.35 acres in a single block. A long drive, lined with meadows, gently descends towards the main courtyard, providing a particularly pleasant approach to the manor house and its outbuildings. The grounds are planted with many species of trees and include an orchard of apple and pear trees. A pond, set apart in a romantic setting, adds to the charm of the place. Behind the manor house lie the garden and extensive lawns, where a swimming pool surrounded by a wooden deck and a tennis court have been laid out. The equestrian facilities occupy part of the land and include an arena, several paddocks and two field shelters. The meadows, combined with the immediate proximity of the state forest, offer an environment particularly well suited to horses and hacking.

In the Cotentin bocage, 15 min from Saint-Lô, a 15th- and 18th-century manor house, with service quarters and dovecote on an 8 ha estate. A wooded drive descends from the road into a small valley. The manor comes into view beyond the dovecote and service quarters. Once a Protestant household, it was the property of the Dagobert family. A broad gravelled forecourt, centred on a stone well, fronts the courtyard elevation. The architecture reflects two distinct building campaigns, spanning the 15th and 18th centuries. The main building rises over a ground floor and upper level, with attic space beneath a slate roof pierced by multiple windows. On the garden side, a circular stair tower topped with a slated pepper-pot roof punctuates the elevation, and the stone walls are set with broad cross-mullioned windows. The two wings connect at each level and can be fitted out as self-contained dwellings.

Ref 4941: Charming manor house and estate for sale in Calvados In the Bessin, a small country road leads to this property set in the heart of the bocage, about ten minutes from Bayeux and Port-en-Bessin. With no immediate neighbours, the estate enjoys particularly peaceful surroundings, ideal for family life as well as for hosting receptions. Bayeux offers shops, services and a railway station. Its cathedral, its famous tapestry and the nearby D-Day landing beaches make this part of Calvados a popular destination. The coastline, the picturesque harbour of Port-en-Bessin and the unspoilt landscapes of the Bessin offer visitors a wealth of places to discover. At the end of an avenue lined with chestnut trees, the estate unfolds around a landscaped courtyard enclosed by its buildings. The 17th-century manor house, the country house and the former outbuildings form a stone ensemble beneath slate roofs. The verticality of the manor house, emphasised by a tall carved dormer, answers the lower lines of the wings that flank it. Dressed-stone surrounds, chimneys and steep roofs give the courtyard a truly distinctive presence. The property combines a 255 sqm residence, reception areas and several guest accommodations, for a total surface area of about 1400 sqm, including the spaces dedicated to hospitality. The layout preserves the owners’ privacy while bringing together, in the professional area, all the main facilities required for an events business. A - THE MANOR HOUSE AND RECEPTION AREAS The ground floor opens onto an entrance hall with a stone staircase. To the right, the large reception hall extends over about 345 sqm. Its open volume, its height up to the roof and its large openings allow a wide range of layouts, with seating for about 250 guests. An adjoining professional kitchen of about 65 sqm, fitted with cold rooms, completes this space. To the left of the entrance, a sitting room with a fireplace leads to a second reception room of about 80 sqm. Set in the former press house, it retains the press mechanism, its exposed beams and a parquet floor. This more intimate room can seat about 50 guests. On the upper floors, the main stone staircase leads to five bedrooms, each with its own shower room. Stone walls, beams and historic volumes give these guest rooms their character. A second staircase leads to the dormitory set beneath the roof timbers, which sleeps about 25 people. B - THE COUNTRY HOUSE Separate from the professional areas, the country house offers about 255 sqm of living space and preserves its occupants’ privacy.
