Description
A46369JTH50 - Historic Normandy Country Estate with Independent Guest Cottage, Professional Equestrian Facilities and Approximately 8 Acres
Some properties offer character.
Others offer opportunity.
Very few successfully combine history, lifestyle, established income and professional equestrian facilities in such an accessible location.
Approached via a private tree-lined driveway and surrounded by approximately 3.35 hectares (8 acres) of gently rolling pasture, this beautifully restored former fortified farmhouse presents a rare opportunity to acquire a genuine Normandy country estate where historic charm meets modern living.
Originally constructed during the mid-nineteenth century, the property has been sympathetically restored to preserve its architectural heritage whilst incorporating the comfort and practicality expected by today's discerning buyer.
Original stone fireplaces, exposed beams, generous ceiling heights and elegant proportions create a home of genuine warmth and character.
Extending to approximately 250 m² over four floors, the principal residence offers exceptional family accommodation.
The magnificent reception room centres around an impressive original fireplace and opens directly onto the rear terrace through French doors, creating an ideal setting for entertaining throughout the year.
The spacious country kitchen has been designed as the heart of the home and also enjoys direct access to the terrace for outdoor dining during the summer months.
Adjoining the kitchen is an exceptionally generous utility and boot room incorporating a ground-floor W.C., providing invaluable practicality after time spent gardening, riding or enjoying the surrounding countryside.
The accommodation comprises four generous double bedrooms together with three bathrooms, including a principal ensuite.
One of the first-floor bedrooms is currently arranged as an elegant second sitting room. Enhanced by a recently installed pellet burner, this flexible space provides a wonderfully cosy retreat during the winter months and could equally serve as a bedroom, library, television room or home office.
A traditional wine cellar completes the principal residence.
Independent Guest Cottage
Separate from the main house, the independent guest cottage provides complete privacy for owners and guests alike.
Already generating rental income through holiday accommodation, it offers an immediate return while retaining complete flexibility for family, friends or multigenerational living.
The accommodation currently comprises:
Sitting room
Kitchen
Bathroom
Spacious first-floor bedroom
There is also potential to create additional sleeping accommodation, subject to any permissions that may be required.
Outstanding Equestrian Facilities
Designed for genuine equestrian use, the estate benefits from facilities that are rarely found in properties of this scale.
The stable yard comprises:
Eight loose boxes
Two oversized boxes of approximately 25 m²
One box of approximately 19 m²
One box of approximately 11 m²
Four boxes of approximately 10.5 m²
Tack room
Workshop
Approximately 100 m² covered storage tunnel
Extensive traditional outbuildings
Large gravel courtyard
Outside, the impressive 60 × 20 metre floodlit all-weather arena allows year-round schooling and training regardless of daylight hours.
Approximately 3.35 hectares (8 acres) of pasture provide excellent grazing together with generous turnout for multiple horses.
Whether your interests include dressage, show jumping, eventing, breeding or simply enjoying Normandy's exceptional riding country, the facilities are immediately operational and ready for use.
A Lifestyle Property with Genuine Business Potential
This is far more than simply a beautiful family home.
It offers exceptional flexibility for purchasers seeking:
A prestigious country residence
A private equestrian estate
An established holiday letting business
Boutique equestrian holidays
Riding instruction or clinics
Multi-generational living
Home-based business opportunities
A complete lifestyle change
An Exceptional Location
Although enjoying complete peace and privacy, the estate benefits from outstanding accessibility.
The property is ideally situated between the county town of Saint-Lô, offering comprehensive shopping, healthcare, schools and leisure facilities, and Carentan-les-Marais, whose railway station provides direct services to Paris.
The vibrant village of Saint-Jean-de-Daye is just five minutes away for everyday amenities, while the nearby N174 provides rapid access to Saint-Lô, Cherbourg and the wider Normandy road network.
The internationally renowned D-Day Landing Beaches are approximately 35 minutes away, while both Cherbourg and Caen-Ouistreham ferry ports can be reached in around one hour, making travel to/from the United Kingdom and Ireland exceptionally convenient.
