A47085JTH50 - Characterful Normandy Stone House Near Utah Beach

Set in a peaceful hamlet in the Normandy bocage, just minutes from the historic coastline of Utah Beach and the famous village of Sainte-Mère-Église, this attractive detached stone house offers approximately 125 m² of accommodation and an annexe of 25 m2 with its own shower and W.C. A wealth of original character and considerable flexibility for family living, a second home or a property with further potential.

Around three hours from Paris, with direct trains from Carentan at 15 mins, the property occupies a tranquil rural setting and not directly overlooked, while remaining within easy reach of the beaches, villages, shops and services of the Manche countryside.

A House Full of Normandy Character

The property retains many of the features that make traditional Normandy houses so appealing, including exposed stone walls, substantial timber beams, terracotta floor tiles and exposed roof timbers.

At the heart of the house is an impressive 53 m² living and dining open kitchen, providing a generous space for family life and entertaining. The open-plan fitted kitchen forms part of this welcoming room, while the combination of stone, timber and traditional tiled flooring creates a wonderfully authentic atmosphere.

A Tulikivi masonry stove provides an attractive focal point as well as efficient and economical heating, complementing the character of the property.

The ground floor also benefits from an annexe with shower room and W.C., providing useful additional space and convenient access towards the garden.

Four to five Bedrooms and Flexible Living Space

The first floor provides two bedrooms, approximately:

18 m²
15 m²

A spacious 10 m² family bathroom serves this level, together with a mezzanine area currently used as a library or study.

The accommodation continues into the spectacular final level beneath the exposed roof structure, this versatile space combines a bedroom, sitting area, dressing area and mezzanine, together with a washbasin and WC.

This upper level could be adapted according to individual requirements, whether as a private bedroom suite, teenage retreat, guest accommodation, home office, studio or additional living area.

Outdoor Space and Additional Land

Outside, the house enjoys a front courtyard and a private rear garden, creating separate areas for entertaining, gardening and relaxation.

The garden includes a fruit-trees adding to the rural character of the property.

Two useful lean-to outbuildings provide valuable additional storage and workshop space and would suit a variety of uses depending on the requirements of the new owners.

A further 634 m² parcel of land is included in the sale, providing additional outdoor space and potential for a small paddock, orchard, vegetable garden or recreational use, subject to any necessary permissions.

Ideal Normandy Location

The location is particularly attractive for those seeking a property close to the D-Day beaches and historic sites of Normandy.

Utah Beach is just minutes away, while Sainte-Mère-Église, famous for its important role during the Normandy landings, is also close by. The surrounding countryside offers the peaceful landscape of the Normandy bocage, while the Channel coast and its beaches are easily accessible.

The property offers an appealing combination of rural tranquillity, historic interest and proximity to the Normandy coast.

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.
