The more than 250sqm of this manor house are completed by 2 other houses (120 and 60 sqm), completely independent and autonomous, currently used as gites. Each one has been renovated with old materials to keep the spirit of the place intact while adding all the necessary elements of comfort. We also find, in continuity of the manor, a second tower with in the lower part a cistern recovering rainwater and at its top accessible by an external stone staircase a small intimate workshop. A little further on, adjoining this part, a room from the 16th century has a magnificent inglenook fireplace, stone corbels on which large beams are supported. On this same wing, a cellar of about fifteen square meters has its place. The opposite wing, in addition to the annexed house, has a covered courtyard with slate roofs, a workshop, a boiler room with storage space and a second cistern integrated into the building. The u-shaped courtyard, which is very protective, is closed off to the south by a covered courtyard, which is also the main entrance to the manor. Below, to the north, the second annex house closes the courtyard. It is like a vast additional room in nature! The total living space is about 500sqm. The 7.16 acres (2.9 hectares) are divided as follows: the part close to the manor constitutes the park with various species such as oaks, cypresses, lime trees, poplars and maples...

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.
