ManorYvetot (76)

In Normandy, in the department of Seine-Maritime, Rouen Sotheby's International Realty offers for sale this charming 15th-century manor house with approx. 485 square meters of living space, listed as a Historic Monument. The property reveals three construction periods (15th, 18th and 19th centuries). Built on the former fief of the Lord of Yvetot, this property bears witness to a rich past. In the 15th century, William Le Conquérant gave the fief to the Seigneur d'Yvetot in gratitude for his participation in the Battle of Hastings. At that time, only Saint Jean bricks and Pays de Caux flint were used to build the manor's checkerboard facade. Over the years, the manor has been extended, and today offers a mix of different styles and materials. The high-ceilinged first floor features an entrance hall opening onto a dining room, a parquet-panelled living room with fireplace and wood-burning insert, a large kitchen with a monumental 15th-century fireplace, and a weapons room featuring the coat of arms of the Seigneur of Taillanville on the period fireplace. The 'domestic' half-floor comprises a toilet, a study and a bedroom with decorative fireplace. If you take the staircase in the entrance hall, you'll find a half-level toilet and study. The second floor offers six large bedrooms, one with a bathroom with toilet and the other with a shower, a bathroom with toilet, a shower room with toilet, a separated toilet and a long corridor leading to all of them. A vast attic on the second floor with conversion potential and a cellar underneath complete the property. The property is set in a land of approximately 7930 square meters, and features remarkable trees such as lime trees, redwoods, magnolias and tulip trees. The manor house, the 19th-century janitor's cottage (to be renovated) and the 19th-century outbuilding form a beautiful ensemble with numerous possibilities. A charming location, 5 minutes from the Yvetot train station, providing rapid access to the Saint-Lazare railway station and the beaches of the Côte d'Albâtre.
