*** Sold by our agency *** In Valognes, in the heart of the Cotentin region and 20 minutes from the sea, at the end of a private avenue, Normandie Privilège offers a carefully restored manor house and its outbuildings, set in 4.5 hectares.
The square-shaped manor features a Renaissance wing and an 18th-century or redesigned main building. A turret and porch were added to one of the facades in the early 20th century. The dwelling offers 366 m2 of living space with 8 spacious main rooms, spread over three levels and several half-levels. There are also utility rooms, convertible attics and a leisure area.
The first floor comprises several entrances, a 40 m2 open-plan dining room, a 26 m2 kitchen and scullery, a 30 m2 living room or games room, a storeroom and a cellar. On the second floor is the 55 m2 living room, particularly bright thanks to five windows and a high ceiling height of 3.7 meters. This elegant room features checkerboard parquet flooring, interior shutters, a stone fireplace, trompe-l'oeil decorations and a French ceiling. On the same level are a 30 m2 study/library and three bedrooms, each with private bathroom or shower room. A fourth bedroom with private shower room occupies the second floor.
A spa and sauna on the first floor, and an 8 x 5-meter indoor swimming pool on the second floor, complete the leisure facilities.
The outbuildings - with a floor area of over 600 m2 - are laid out at right-angles to form a vast courtyard with the manor house. They include former paved stables, a large garage, an old farm building dating from the 19th century, a huge shed, a former bakery and a former janitor's cottage.
The property is meticulously maintained. All the roofs were redone in 2016. The manor house has wooden windows. Central heating is provided by a town gas boiler.
Located close to the center of Valognes, this manor house is currently a comfortable family home. It offers the potential to develop a hospitality business, thanks to the convertible attics, outbuildings and part of the land that remains constructible. As an option, it can be sold fully furnished and decorated.
