Description

A45634SPR50 - Elegant Historic Residence with Extensive Reception Areas, Outbuildings and Development Potential

The ground floor offers an impressive layout designed for both family living and entertaining. A welcoming entrance hall leads to two elegant reception lounges, a formal dining room with a traditional fireplace, and a fully fitted and equipped kitchen. The highlight of this level is a magnificent 58 m² reception hall featuring an open fireplace, ideal for hosting family gatherings, celebrations, or events. An adjoining 42 m² glass-roofed bar and lounge area provides a bright and inviting space with views over the grounds. A guest WC and utility/boiler room complete the ground floor.

The first floor features a spacious landing with built-in storage, serving five generously sized bedrooms, a shower room, a family bathroom, and separate WC facilities. A mezzanine level includes an additional shower room, separate WC, and a room with staircase access to a charming attic bedroom. The second floor accommodates a home office, separate WC, and two interconnecting bedrooms, offering flexible accommodation for guests, family members, or remote working.

The property's extensive outbuildings significantly enhance its appeal. These include a 90 m² insulated garage, a 34 m² workshop, and a 16 m² wine cellar. Together, these ancillary spaces provide exceptional opportunities for secure parking, storage, hobbies, artisan activities, or future conversion projects. Multiple parking spaces are also available within the private courtyard.

At the entrance to the estate, an attractive former gatekeeper's cottage and a second 55 m² outbuilding requiring renovation overlook the park, presenting excellent potential for guest accommodation, a holiday rental, artist's studio, or additional living space. To the rear of the property, a charming terrace bordered by smaller outbuildings provides the perfect setting to enjoy the beautifully landscaped gardens and peaceful surroundings.

This distinguished residence combines historic character with modern efficiency and comfort. Technical features include connection to the mains drainage system, underfloor heating in part of the house, an energy-efficient heat pump, and a strong Energy Performance Rating (DPE C).

Throughout the property, exceptional craftsmanship and premium materials have been carefully preserved and enhanced, including Valognes stone, Burgundy stone flooring, and solid oak parquet floors, creating an atmosphere of timeless elegance and authenticity.

Ideally located just 10 km from the stunning beaches of the western Cotentin coast, the property enjoys all the attractions of Saint-Sauveur-le-Vicomte, renowned for its impressive medieval castle, its association with celebrated French writer Jules Barbey d'Aurevilly, and its outstanding natural surroundings. Situated near the River Douve and within the heart of the Cotentin and Bessin Marshes Regional Natural Park, the area is a paradise for nature lovers, walkers, cyclists, birdwatchers, and canoe enthusiasts.

This exceptional Normandy property is ideally suited as a prestigious family home, a luxury holiday residence, or a boutique bed-and-breakfast / guest house business.

A truly rare historic estate offering heritage, character, noble materials, development potential, and modern comfort in one of Normandy's most desirable locations.

About Leggett Immobilier, France

La Maison du Chapitre, 24340 La Rochebeaucourt, France

Leggett Immobilier is a family business that was started 20 years ago and founded on the genuine belief that French estate agency could be done better – today this still holds true. Indeed, this belief was validated last year when we were crowned "Best Estate Agency in France" at a prestigious awards ceremony in London.

All of our agents live and work in France and have excellent local knowledge, covering both their area and local property prices. Clients are given a single point of contact who is dedicated to helping them make the right decision and to be by their side throughout the purchase process. Our in-house contracts team are experienced in dealing with local notaires and have overseen the purchase of over €1bn of French property - they will ensure that the sale progresses smoothly and our fully bilingual team will guide you through all legal documentation.

With over 600 agents spread across the country we like to think that we are now the leading international estate agency in France, last year around one in ten of all UK buyers of French property trusted us to help them. However, the company’s size and success has not altered the fact that we are a family business who pride ourselves on professionalism and friendliness.

Local knowledge is invaluable when buying in a foreign country. Leggett provides this knowledge - nearly all of our agents have lived through a move themselves and have been trained to deal with any issue or question that might arise. This training includes a three day, residential, course, further "advanced" training and access to our head office team who keep abreast of all changes in French property law and legislation.

It is this, unique, “hand-holding” approach that has helped build the foundations of our company. No other agency in France takes such care of a client before, during and after a property is purchased.

The system for buying a property in France can be complex but is regarded as being one of the safest in the world – the French like "red tape" but not much surprises us now.

With over 20 years of experience, we have the knowledge to aid with legal matters, help with finance, and even ensure that you have all the essential services connected when you make the move to your new home.

Leggett Immobilier - local knowledge you can trust.
