We are well in the 17th century ... lulled by Louis XIV . The main courtyard forms the main part of the landscape, half of which is paved with stones and half with grass. grass. The coolness of the nearby moat has encouraged the planting of a curtain of trees (prunus, laurel, birch, yew, conifer) to avoid any possible overlooking of the neighbouring property.

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. Monumental contemporary fireplace. Exposed joists. (Ceiling height (HSP) 2.44 m) large bay windows opening onto the terrace, enhanced by a 'cathedral' space giving it a 'loft' feel.

Rear access to a former one-car garage (4.40 x 3.20 m), converted into a workshop. 2.66 m high. Adjoining shed, accessed via an old paved fruit garden, with a second staircase leading down. Exterior exit via the gable.

The rear terrace is a good size, with stone paving, allowing access from either the living room or the kitchen. There is a separate storage room with an upper floor, served by a wooden staircase. 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. 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. WC. 4/ THE GUEST HOUSE: converted in 1994 from what was probably staff accommodation, it has undergone a complete and meticulous renovation to accommodate friends or passing guests.

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.

Ref. 4434: Authentic 15th C. Lordly Dwelling for sale in Normandy. The property is located in the heart of Basse-Normandie, in the west of the Orne department, in the hedged farmland known as 'Pays d'Houlme'. Although the borders of this region are unclear, it stretches from the 'Suisse Normande' in the North to the edges of the Andaines forest in the South, from East to West, in the centre of an axis between FLERS and ARGENTAN, of which BRIOUZE is the local capital. It is in the countryside, close to but preserved from civilisation, that you should look for this discreet and reassuring house, well established in the heart of its landscaped setting. With its reasonable size and numerous outbuildings, this property is perfectly suited to the most diverse projects to meet the requirements of a main, secondary or professional residence. LE PAYS DU HOULME: A granitic land historically marked by the Viking invasions, the 'Houlme' can be defined as a green bocage criss-crossed with sunken paths, rich in manor houses and half-timbered houses set on the banks of ponds and rivers; apple and pear trees, a tourist country if ever there was one .... a true hymn to the countryside. The jewel in the crown of the Houlme, located a few leagues from the house, is the Grand Hazé, considered to be the largest marsh in the Orne. It covers almost 200 hectares and is a sensitive natural area classified as Natura 2000, a natural heritage of extraordinary richness (fauna and flora). Walking trails and an observatory allow you to appreciate, among other things, one of the most renowned bird breeding sites. Hikers can also reach the spa town of Bagnoles de l'Orne by the 'voie verte', accessible from Briouze. BRIOUZE: Small dynamic town with the appearance of the capital of the 'Houlme' where all the commercial, craft and cultural activities are concentrated (supermarket, doctors, pharmacy, retirement home, 2 nursery schools, 2 secondary schools, 2 primary schools, all shops). This property dates from the end of the 15th and beginning of the 16th century and would have been inhabited by one of the many lords of the Barony of Sées. It is likely that a farm was attached to it, as evidenced by the current existence of small scattered farms. The current owners acquired it in 2003 and began a systematic restoration campaign, obsessively guided by the conservation of the existing heritage. In 2005, they were awarded the 'Fondation du Patrimoine' label in recognition of their efforts and the architectural quality of the building. This label is awarded in close collaboration with the architect of the buildings of France and provides some advantages (financial aid and tax exemption). New, more 'seaworthy' life projects now await the owners .... The dwelling is of great sobriety, built of granite over 3 stories under a slate roof decorated with 2 beautiful chimneys. The openings are very asymmetrical in size and position, probably installed for defensive purposes, as evidenced by the bars that have been preserved. A beautiful stone staircase adorns the north facade and provides access to the room with the best view... and defence in case of attack. This deceptively large dwelling has a living area of approx. 300 sqm, distributed as follows: The ground floor: central north and south entrances opening on to a large living room with a monumental fireplace (39 sqm), terracotta tiles and joists, lime/hemp walls. Opening to a staircase leading to the large living room on the first floor. On the right-hand side, a fitted kitchen (floor tiles and joists), adjoining a scullery, utility room and boiler room.

South access to a small intermediate storage room, open to a bathroom/shower/wc, and giving access to a miller's staircase leading to the 2 bedrooms on the second floor. 2nd floor: on either side of the staircase, 2 bedrooms, respectively 30 and 42 m² on the ground, under cathedral-shaped wooden slopes. Ceiling height of 3.50 m. It should be noted that all the rooms have numerous period features (arches, fireplace, kitchen garden, niches, locks, fittings, eyelets, safe) ..... The property is sold fully furnished. There are 6 outbuildings, nicely spread out on the northern side. They are all in good structural condition. -Building with cob and wooden gable, under tiles, used as a workshop, wood shed. -Building with stone base, cob and half-timbering, under tiles; former pigsty. -Half-timbered building under tile, used as summer annex. -Light half-timbered building, with no particular use. -18X6.50m cob building, half-timbered gable - under recent tiled roof.

It is entirely landscaped and laid out in the English style, alternating with large lawns dominated by a few oak and lime trees. The immediate surroundings of the dwelling are full of flowers, interspersed with lively hedges and various shrubs that create a lively atmosphere in response to the rigour of the granite facades. A well-kept vegetable garden is next to a pretty frog pond....pavée. There is a second well. Pear trees, apple trees, cherry trees, mirabelle trees, plum trees and vines complete the decor and make these 7,41 acres a restful place where the eye is constantly immersed in a natural world, which is very Norman. An opportunity to acquire only 4.94 acres. Taking advantage of the nearby Natura 2000 zone, the site can boast of being a 'protected area', which means that it is free from any nuisance, right of way or distorting project. A place to live or a place to holiday, this house is sure to seduce with its charm and authenticity.

Ref.4044. Charming 17th C. dwelling and its reception building in Mayenne department. 'In this land of moor and heather, the passage where one meets this beautiful ruin lacks neither charm nor freshness, with its forest and deep valley. These are the words of Abbé Angot to describe the environment of this property Located in the north of the Mayenne, historically in the Bas Maine, this 17th century dwelling is built in the countryside, in a relatively isolated, intimate and charming environment. In the middle of an old medieval fortress surrounded by water, it comprises the remains of an old castle and its wings, one of which is used as a home and the other as a reception room. 'Curious', 'aesthetic', 'historical' and 'authentic' define this place, which bewitches the walkers who get lost in it. A small resource town is 10 km away by car; all shops and services are provided by a dynamic and historic town 19 km away. The dwelling is reached by a single bridge spanning the moat, passing under a delightful porch of vermiculated stonework, of which the semicircular arch and its pedestrian door remain. The ruins of the castle and the parapet walk, the moat, the base of two imposing defensive towers and the two large communal wings, which are the only parts that can be inhabited today, remain from the old fortification, whose size and splendour of yesteryear can be imagined. In the middle of the enclosure is a formal garden with an old gates in the centre. The two outbuildings are arranged symmetrically on either side of the garden, back-to-back with the old castle that once stood at the end of the courtyard. They are built of stone, rendered with lime, covered with slate and the roofs are adorned with charming bull's eyes; the east wing is fitted out as a vast reception room and the west wing is the dwelling which comprises: On the ground floor: a large room partially separated into two volumes by an entrance hatch which is glazed; this room includes two monumental fireplaces, cushions, exposed beams and the start of the stairway to the first floor; to the south, a bedroom with a fireplace, a terracotta floor laid between oak slats and exposed beams, and adjoining a bathroom - wc; to the north, a vast kitchen with a fireplace and a terracotta and stone floor, and to follow a technical room (laundry/boiler room), and a toilet. On the first floor: separated by hemp and lime partitions, 4 bedrooms with shower room and wc; the floors are covered with sea rush. The rooms face east and south, and on the opposite side, the thick, high walls formed the wall topped by its parapet walk. It should be emphasised that the work carried out was done with a technical and artistic concern, the result of which is remarkable. Here again, the adjectives curious, aesthetic, historical and authentic are used. The living area of the house is approximately 350sqm. Opposite the dwelling, the former stables (twin building of the dwelling) have been converted into a reception area and the work was completed in April 2020. The large room measures approximately 250sqm. The floor is made of tinted cement, the walls are plastered with lime and the framework is covered with an elegant formwork in the shape of an overturned ship's hull, giving the room volume and sound absorption. In the extension there is a room for the caterer and a sanitary block (toilet and washbasin); A stone outbuilding with a slate roof used as an equipment shed is set back from the dwelling; A picturesque chapel 3.2 km away by car, covered with shingles. The fortified enclosure dominates the old garden to the south, which is to be recreated, and is bordered by raised paths offering a bucolic walk around it. A few small, unoccupied meadows complete the ensemble for a total surface area of approximately 6.17 acres (2.59 ha). The general atmosphere bears witness to a place steeped in history and legends: 'tradition has it that a hound's head, sculpted on one of the walls of the easements, indicates the exact spot where a barrel of gold is hidden, but this treasure has not been discovered'. The Mayenne: castle, manor houses, beautiful residences. Gilbert CHAUSSIS. The work carried out by the current owner has made it possible to save and restore this site, which seemed condemned to a slow decline. The place is now saved and alive! This singular place is calling for a new owner willing to humbly continue the preservation of this thousand-year-old site.

Ref.4893 : 15th-c. listed manor house in need of restoration, with a habitable annexe and garden, in Normandy In the heart of a small village of some 180 souls, at the gateway to the valleys of ‘Swiss Normandy’ – renowned for their idyllic, rolling landscapes dotted with hedgerows – a stunning Renaissance manor house has stood for over 10 centuries. Situated in the heart of the Orne department, in a region of stud farms, lakes and rivers, sharing the countryside with neighbours as discreet as they are reassuring, this manor house remains a local curiosity, its history being so rich in events. Just a few leagues from the shops and services needed for daily life, the property also benefits from its proximity to well-served towns, such as Falaise, less than 15 km away. Undoubtedly aimed primarily at those who appreciate authenticity, this property – which features a renovated annexe – will offer everyone the opportunity to settle in and complete the restoration of the manor house under the watchful eye of the Historic Monuments authority. 1) THE MANOR HOUSE: Its construction dates back to the 15th C. (around 1589). It is a late Renaissance ‘house’, situated at the centre of a complex of farm buildings forming a front courtyard and a rear courtyard. The manor house comprises a main building with its principal façade facing east, featuring a rear wing at right angles to it, adjoining a square tower which was probably decapitated during the Revolution and which contains a fine spiral staircase. The roof is covered with flat tiles, with the exception of the tower, which is temporarily covered with corrugated steel sheeting. The complex comprises two distinct courtyards, both flanked by more or less adjoining outbuildings, as follows: Front courtyard: former stables, equipment sheds, barn, bread oven and well. Rear courtyard: henhouse, pigsty, cart shed, barn and well. There is also a cider house with an attic used for storage. Today, only the structural framework of this building remains, excluding the roof structure and roofing. At the gable end stands a dwelling for the estate’s farm labourers, now in ruins. The manor house has retained a few period features, including several fireplaces, mullioned windows, a watchtower and a semi-circular archway… The cornices and roof structures are remarkable, as are the floor rafters. 2) THE DWELLING : Built of mortared rubble stone over two storeys and topped with a small-tile roof, this house underwent a complete restoration some fifteen years ago, enabling the owners to settle here rather than restoring their manor house. It is now a comfortable home with around 100 square metres of living space, laid out as follows: Ground floor: Entrance leading to a straight staircase with a quarter turn, featuring wooden balustrades with balusters. Access to a bathroom with shower – terracotta tile flooring. Separate toilet with washbasin. Living room (20 sqm), with fireplace (wood-burning stove) – terracotta tile flooring – exposed beams. Ceiling height under beams: 2.30 sqm. Kitchen/dining room (18 sqm) – terracotta tile flooring – exposed beams. Utility room (5.80 sqm). External access. Storage room / Boiler room (3.78 sqm). First floor: Carpeted landing (4.61 sqm). Bedroom 1 with carpeted floor (17.95 sqm), with a mezzanine for additional sleeping space. ‘Cathedral-style’ ceiling. Bedroom 2 with glued solid wood flooring (13.50 sqm) – Tiled shower room with adjoining toilet (recently fitted). ‘Cathedral-style’ ceiling. Ceiling height 4.80 m. OUTBUILDINGS : By definition, every manor house leads a self-sufficient existence, reflected in the presence of a large number of buildings, each with a clearly defined purpose. This manor is no exception to the rule, but the passage of centuries has taken its toll on certain buildings, which are now either completely destroyed or in a state of ruin. Consequently, the location of the farm labourers’ cottage, situated between the gable end of the manor and the former henhouse, can now only be discerned by the presence of a few low stone walls. The bread oven has also disappeared. However, extending from the wing of the manor house, a long building without a roof structure remains, which served as a cider house and cart shed. This 18th-C. building underwent emergency restoration to prevent its collapse, including that of the stone porches. On the east side of the manor house stands an imposing stone building with a tiled roof, which formerly served as stables and a hay barn. This building has now been restored. LAND : The property is situated in the heart of a village of some 180 inhabitants, on the outskirts of the famous and renowned ‘Normandy Switzerland’, including its iconic town of Putanges, less than a league away. It features a wooded and flower-filled park of just over one hectare, offering distant, rolling views of the countryside. Numerous fruit trees (apple, pear, plum, cherry, quince and mirabelle plum) dot this peaceful and serene setting. The grounds require minimal maintenance in the immediate vicinity of the property; a plot to the north, is looked after by a neighbouring farmer, as part of good neighbourly relations. A small stream marks the northern boundary of the property, which covers an area of 2.9 acres. By order of 4 May 1990, the Renaissance manor house was listed in its entirety on the Supplementary Inventory of Historic Monuments. This property is a historic monument (allowing fiscal tax cuts if you pay taxes in France).

Ref 4910: Manor house suitable for events, for sale, 5 km from Falaise On the lands of William the Conqueror, two leagues from the ‘Swiss Normandy’ region, at the gateway to the Duchy of Normandy, an imposing manor farm has stood for nearly three centuries – the last remaining vestige of an exceptional estate, a victim of the ravages of history… But as you round a bend on a country road, history comes into view, concealed by a curtain of trees, inviting curiosity to explore a decidedly discreet entrance, behind which awaits a surprising building of stately proportions. Beautifully situated at the heart of a protected landscape harmoniously shaped by woodland and meadows, the property stands out as an obvious source of inspiration, offering a sense of well-being and freedom. Daily shopping needs are catered for locally, perfectly complemented by the town of Falaise, which, within cycling distance, offers all the services and shops necessary for everyday life. The road links are excellent and provide swift access to rail, motorway, air and sea transport networks. Designed for hosting events, yet with the potential for a wide range of activities, this property will fulfil even the most ambitious projects, supported by the natural richness of its enchanting setting, which is ready for immediate use. Such is Normandy… beautiful, mysterious, a place for a brief visit or a holiday… which often turns into a lifelong project. The property comprises a main house built of rendered stone over three storeys and topped with a hipped slate roof. Adjoining its north-eastern side is a series of outbuildings, one of which is set at right angles, evoking the atmosphere of a main courtyard. Unlike the manor house, these buildings are smaller in scale, and some are roofed with flat tiles. The ensemble is harmonious and balanced, displaying perfect symmetry, a legacy of the Age of Enlightenment. The south-east façade is enhanced by an H-shaped veranda projection, opening onto a spacious terrace leading to the grounds. Set slightly higher up is a luxurious swimming pool, elegantly integrated into the surroundings by a balustrade safety railing. A nearby stone building serves as a pool house (housing heat pumps). Set apart from the main complex, a beautiful stone barn with a tiled ‘cathedral’ roof houses a two-part storage area reserved for farm equipment. A row of small outbuildings follows on from this, revealing various agricultural sheds (chicken coop, woodshed, storeroom, etc.). At the southern end of the manor stands a small stone building with a tiled roof, resembling a sheepfold. A large car park (70 spaces), discreetly situated behind the main courtyard, provides easy access to the manor house and its outbuildings. Set apart from the estate, and perfectly situated for its surveillance role, a ‘stylish’ outbuilding – formerly the bakery of the original château – makes an ideal caretaker’s house, with its own separate and discreet entrances. The property as a whole has been perfectly restored for use as an events venue, yet its immense potential leaves the door open for even the most ambitious projects. I - THE MANOR HOUSE The main feature, exuding prestige and setting the tone. On the ground floor: spacious main entrance hall, with direct access to a pleasant south-facing lounge. Toilet facilities. Hallway and reception area for customers. Kitchen / Utility room. Large reception lounge (mezzanine), with adjoining toilet facilities and commercial kitchen. On the first floor: a stone spiral staircase leading to a corridor serving six bedrooms, each with an en-suite shower room and WC. On the second floor: access via the spiral staircase to three fully fitted and furnished bedrooms. II - THE RECEPTION HALL Reception hall known as the ‘Four Seasons Room’, built on the site of the former cart shed. A 300 sqm hall capable of accommodating at least 150 seated guests and 200 for a cocktail reception. Two annexes, including a dance hall (64 sqm) and a large conservatory (80 sqm) overlooking the grounds, allow for increased capacity. Adjoining cloakroom and toilet facilities. PNR status. The reception rooms feature underfloor heating. Adjoining professional catering kitchen (4 fridges, cold store, ovens). OUTBUILDINGS 1 - Self-catering flats Situated as an extension of the reception rooms, On the ground floor: offices and an adjoining barn used for storing equipment. Upstairs: a straight staircase leading to a corridor serving two dormitories and a large bathroom with a shower and toilets. 2 - A storage barn 3 - Various outbuildings used for agricultural purposes (chicken coop, woodshed, storage shed, etc.) 4 - A caretaker’s house It is situated below the main property, set back from the two entrances leading to the car parks. A very charming 18th-century stone cottage with a rendered façade and a hipped roof covered in small tiles. Formerly the estate’s bakery, it has been completely renovated and now sleeps seven. Ground floor: tiled living room with exposed beams and a converted old bread oven (wood-burning stove). Fitted kitchen area. WC. Upstairs: 2 bedrooms / bathroom with shower – WC. Electric heating and wood-burning stove. Double glazing. Private sewage system. Terrace and flower garden. Wooded surroundings, close to a pond fed by a stream running along the edge of the park (‘Le Val’). The property is full of charm and perfectly functional. THE GROUNDS The property enjoys a commanding position over a single, unbroken 22-hectare (54-acre) park, free from easements and with no neighbours directly opposite. Meadows and woodland each occupy half the space, offering the eye sweeping views into the distance, all the way to the wooded edges. It is here that the more adventurous will marvel at an exceptional ice house, the size of which speaks volumes about the importance of the original estate. Roe deer and hares may occasionally give themselves away… Beautiful pastures, set apart from the lawns reserved for visitors, could easily accommodate a few horses; in their absence, these meadows serve as an additional car park. The old latrines have been preserved opposite the south gable. The swimming pool is the centre of attention, so much is it appreciated. Facing south-east at a reasonable distance from the reception areas, it was built in 2012 as much out of necessity as for pleasure. From a safety perspective, it provides a water supply that complies with current legal requirements for premises open to the public. It also offers a high-quality experience for guests. It features two pools, one of which is for children; the main pool measures 20 x 10 metres, with a depth ranging from 80 cm to over 2 metres. The entire facility is heated by two heat pumps (15 years old). It is surrounded by sturdy balustrades, and access is highly secure. A pool house is attached to it. The plot is situated within the boundaries of the protected natural areas of Lower Normandy.
