Located in a charming village in the Pays de Caux, between Rouen and Dieppe, this estate stands on the historic grounds of an 11th-century Benedictine abbey. This singular manor was originally crafted from an 18th-century conventual building. At the beginning of the 20th century, a whimsical spirits merchant commissioned the renowned architect Henri Jacquelin to design a monumental extension. The result is a striking blend of Neo-Norman and Neo-Gothic styles, incorporating numerous authentic historical elements. Spanning 546 m², the manor’s original wing features an entrance hall and an 80 m² reception room with a dedicated service corridor. On the opposite side of the lobby lies the 105 m² ballroom, anchored at its end by a circular lounge with a vaulted ceiling. Running alongside the ballroom are a professional kitchen, a scullery, and a pantry. The first floor features a corridor leading to four bedrooms—two of which have private shower rooms—and a separate bathroom. On an intermediate level, the billiard room opens onto a spiral staircase that leads to the tower bedroom and its ensuite shower room. The manor includes two basements: one dedicated to technical facilities (boiler room and workshop), and a second accessible from the kitchen, equipped with a cold storage room. Outside, the park of over 2 hectares (approx. 5 acres) is accessible via two entrances. The first leads to a parking area concealed from the main house, while the second, more picturesque entrance passes through the ramparts. Integrated into these walls is a gatekeeper's cottage which, after a full renovation, could serve as a secondary guest house. Continuing from this outbuilding is a registered covered storage area. The partially enclosed parkland was designed in the English landscape style. It offers pleasant walks where one can discover the remaining vestiges of the original abbey. At the edge of the estate sits the medieval motte-and-bailey, the final witness to the site’s feudal history. Ideally situated between Rouen and Dieppe, this exceptional property offers easy access to Paris, Deauville, Lille, and Belgium.

Exclusive Listing – Detailed 50-page brochure available upon request A Historic Manor at the Gateway to Gisors, in the Heart of the Norman Vexin : A rare opportunity to acquire an authentic seigneurial manor, built in 1525 at the transition between the Late Middle Ages and the Renaissance, and listed in the French General Inventory of Cultural Heritage.

Remarkable Architectural Character : The manor immediately captivates with its magnificent decorative brickwork, a defining feature of the distinguished rural residences of the Norman Vexin. Its elegant rectangular main residence, distinguished by restrained proportions and timeless refinement, is crowned by a steeply pitched clay-tile roof typical of the region.

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.

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.
