Ref.4456 : 16th and 18th century manor house in Bayeux
The manor house is nestled in a picturesque alleyway. In fact, the wall and elegant gateway separating it from the street barely manage to hide its proud silhouette. It is an ‘L’-shaped building comprising a four-storey, ashlar 18th-century main dwelling set against a four-storey Renaissance-era tower on a vaulted cellar. The building has a slate roof.
In total, the property has 9 main rooms including 1 living room, 1 study, 6 bedrooms with en suite bathrooms and 1 other bedroom. There is around 300 sqm of living space. The property has been carefully restored, preserving many period features: parquet flooring, wood panelling, solid wood doors, fireplaces and overmantels, beams and joists, etc.

The 18th century dwelling spans around 220 sqm and comprises :
On the ground floor, an entrance hall leading to a study on one side and a living room with a monumental fireplace on the other, extended by a contemporary glass roof. This brings a great deal of light to this 48 sqm reception area. A fitted kitchen, a scullery and a wine cellar complete this level (HSP 2.79 m).
From the entrance hall, a remarkable ashlar staircase, adorned with a mascaron at its starting point, leads to the upper floors.
There is a 10 sqm bedroom on the middle floor.
The first floor includes a suite comprising a 24 sqm bedroom with fireplace, a shower room and a dressing room with window (2.74 m high).
A further 10 sqm bedroom is located halfway upstairs.
The second floor includes a second suite, a 24 sqm bedroom with fireplace, a shower room and a dressing room (2.9 m high).
The third floor comprises a 14 sqm attic bedroom and a shower room.

The Renaissance tower gives access to the second dwelling, measuring around 80 sqm, which houses three bedrooms (one on each floor). Each has its own private shower room and kitchenette. The spiral staircase that connects these rooms leads to a former lookout room with a fireplace, now used as an attic.
On the ground floor, the tower also gives access to a 14th century vaulted cellar, which houses the boiler and other functional equipment.
There is also an electrically operated garage measuring 24 sqm (the entrance measures 2.9 m x 2.4 m), 50 metres further up the same street.

The walled courtyard and garden provide a quiet, private outdoor space. There is a lovely, unobstructed view of the cathedral. Part of the garden is terraced, the other laid to lawn and planted with flowers, with part facing south. The cadastral area is 293 sqm.
