Ref.3930 : Beautiful manor for sale in the Manche department.
This manor house, whose origins date back to the time of the Norman invasions in the 9th century, is located in a Norman commune.
The property benefits from the landscape of meadows and hedges typical of the bocage of the region. The village of 2000 inhabitants, located 3 km away, provides all services and shops. The nearest town is only 10 km away and has a hospital and a train station which allows you to reach Paris in 3 hours. The motorway is accessible in 30 minutes. The beaches can be reached in only 30 minutes.
The known origins of the manor house date back to the 16th century. However, there is still some mystery as to its earlier history, as evidenced by the towers and recesses on the north façade, the wide stone staircase and the thickness of some of the walls, which suggest that the building existed long before.
Inside, the manor house was renovated about 20 years ago and offers more contemporary features. With a living area of approximately 350sqm, it includes :
On the ground floor: a pretty entrance hall leads to a small study, the kitchen and the living rooms of more than 60sqm with more generous volumes: a dining room with a fireplace and a lounge with its fireplace in a row, under the old secular beams, then a summer lounge that opens on to a small water room and the moat. At the back, a second kitchen is located at the foot of the magnificent stone staircase, housed in the north tower. It leads us to the upper floors.
On the first floor we find three bedrooms, a bathroom and two shower rooms.
On the second floor, the three bedrooms and three shower rooms are embellished with beautiful carpentry work.
On the third floor, a pretty bedroom open on two sides offers a dominant view of the manor's roofs and the surrounding countryside. An attic converted into two adjoining bedrooms is the ideal place for the children's dormitory.
The towers, nooks and crannies, loopholes and all the old features that have been brought to life stimulate the imagination of all.
The layout of the buildings around the manor house forms the courtyard of the property. Opposite the manor house is the stable and its attic, on either side is an outbuilding used as a shed, and on the other is an enclosed barn that houses the maintenance equipment.
The property totals about 27 acres (11 ha) of which 14 acres (6 ha) of meadows are rented.
The courtyard and its buildings are surrounded by a moat.
Trees and hedgerows adorn the land.
