manor for sale Gacé, France

Ref 4261: Manor house for sale in Normandy. This elegant 19th-century manor house is set in the heart of a lively little Normandy town of almost 2,000 people, where terroir and tradition remain the unmistakable scents of a Normandy that is as unique as it is authentic. In the land of cider and cheese, half-timbered houses and craggy landscapes, there are a number of medium-sized towns whose dynamism is sometimes unexpected. Gacé offers all the local services needed for everyday life, and benefits from the proximity of a road network open to all destinations.
