Quettehou, Manche, 50630, France

Bioclimatic house, in the heart of greenery and just 800m from the village of Quettehou, you can't imagine such an oasis. Much more than a property, here is a concept; living in total immersion in nature.

A parkland plot of 13200m2, plants of more than 100 different species; trees, shrubs, fruit trees, flowers, regularly animated by the "visitors" (as the owner calls them); deer, hares, hedgehogs, wild boars, badgers, foxes, bullfinches, owls, finches, bees and other species of all kinds (the inventory is far too long!).

And as an observatory, high up, a round house, built of wood (Spruce and Douglas fir) and covered with Larch tiles; a large basement of 150m2, 6 main rooms on 164m2 of living space, including a 48m2 living room, pierced by large bay windows and glass frames opening onto the park.

- Ground floor: the circulation of the rooms is organised around the main axis, a colossal pillar resembling a giant parasol.

- Upstairs: the landing is naturally lit by a huge glass dome, giving the impression of being in the open air.

The curves, the light, the view and the omnipresent wood bring a very warm and soothing atmosphere.

- Originality: initially planned to adapt the exposure according to the weather, this house is potentially rotating (but with access constraints to the basement); follow the sun to capture its heat, or turn your back on the winds to escape the coolness. For lovers of flora and fauna, fans of bio-sourced houses, and contemplative types: this house is made for you.

The department of Manche is in Lower Normandy and is bordered with Calvados, Orne, Mayenne and Ille-et-Vilaine. The English Channel in the west, north and north-west coastlines makes getting here to its many ports very easy from the UK. There is also an airport in Caen and many others are easily accessible in the surrounding regions such as Rennes airport.

History is all over the department through its museums and heritage, discovering the local traditions and culture as well as Chateaux, religious monuments, water mills, maritime sites and gardens is easy to do. The biggest 'must-do' is a visit to Mont Saint Michel.

Tourism plays a major role in the economy of the department which is fine because there is so much to see and do.
