Réf.4545 : Near Argentan, a fine manor farm offering reception facilities and a table d’hôtes, for sale. In the winding roads of Suisse Normande, centuries have shaped an exceptional landscape dotted with remarkable residences, living witnesses to the ancient history of Normandy. From Argentan to the outskirts of Caen, Suisse Normande boasts an architectural and historical heritage that has been jealously preserved from the ravages of civilisation. As a result, numerous manor houses and châteaux have privatised protected natural areas, granting themselves undisturbed peace and serenity. This farmhouse-manor house is fully in keeping with this tradition of hospitality and conviviality, offering today an ideal setting for receiving guests, organising meals with locals and creating a characterful inn. An elegant outbuilding of the neighbouring castle, this dwelling displays all the characteristics of a fortified 'farm-manor house', whose numerous outbuildings mark the visceral attachment to the land that animated the lords who once lived here. The property benefits from a reassuring neighbourhood while retaining its much-appreciated privacy. Nature offers a breathtaking view free from any disturbances. Daily life is taken care of just a mile away (5 km), with the town of Argentan providing shopping, crafts, administrative and logistical services. Step into the authenticity of the Orne valleys, peaceful holiday destinations just two hours by train from the capital. Suisse Normande is a privileged corner of paradise... a secret that you should discover... and keep to yourself. The property has an imposing structure comprising 4 buildings arranged opposite each other to form a courtyard of honour. An arched porch joins two conical towers with archways. The buildings are large, built of stone with tiled roofs. The windows are of various sizes, in keeping with their respective functions. The defensive aspect is very marked, originally limiting openings to the outside. More recent alterations have made up for the risk of a lack of light. The property comprises a main building that has been converted into a dwelling, logistical outbuildings and areas reserved for animals. While the outbuilding directly adjoining the dwelling has retained its utilitarian character (garages, storeroom and attic), the building opposite has undergone a complete interior conversion (reception room, guest house, boiler room). The main dwelling, enriched by a terrace overlooking the horizon, exceptionally untouched by any nuisance, is a natural extension for outdoor lunches and dinners, in the heart of a listed site. With an interior surface area of around 280 sqm, the dwelling is distributed as follows: Ground floor: Tiled central entrance hall on the south side (9.45 sqm) giving access on the left to a vast paved lounge (64 sqm) with a dining area.

Outbuildings ; 1/ OUTBUILDING 1: set back from the main dwelling, long building comprising on the ground floor a large room (61 sqm) with hexagonal floor tiles; exposed joists; exposed stone walls. 2.50 m high. There is an old walled-in door leading into the lounge of the dwelling, thus creating interesting potential for extension. The first floor comprises a vast attic (61 sqm) with a wooden floor. 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.

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.

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.
