Ref.4541 : French property for sale in Normandy with swimming pool
In the heart of Normandy, in the emblematic Pays d'Auge, on the outskirts of a market town of just one hundred souls, this authentic ensemble has stood for over five centuries in a dominant, out-of-the-way position.
The Pays d'Auge is a remarkable natural area, with its hills, heather moors, ancient peat bogs and wooded areas, offering a first-rate tourist environment, within easy reach of the sea, rich in varied landscapes and sporting and nature activities, .... less than 200 km from the capital.
Neither modest nor ostentatious, this timber-framed ensemble has managed to retain its age-old authenticity, while adopting the codes of contemporary life, taking on an exceptional landscape from which it derives some of its magnificence.
Everyday life, with its many demands, is made easier by the proximity of dynamic medium-sized towns just a few leagues away. The towns of Caen and Lisieux provide all the road, rail, sea and airport links you need.
Purity.....silence....heritage....and what if paradise was in Normandy?

This Augeron ensemble comprises a 3-storey main building with a 4-slope tiled roof featuring 2 pavilion roof dormers. The timber-framed structure is infilled with lime-rendered cob, resting on an insulating base of jointed stone.
The whole is pure and harmonious, with an elegant symmetry punctuated by bay windows of varying sizes.
The main facade faces south-east and has an unobstructed view over a grassy hill; the rear facade overlooks the outbuildings, which are arranged in a staggered layout and form a courtyard of honour.

With an interior surface area of approx. 213 sqm, the dwelling is distributed as follows:
Ground floor : entrance on the east side into a 42 sqm dining room/kitchen with a ‘monumental lean-to fireplace’ with a wooden ‘crowning cornice’ resting on imposing sculpted stone ‘corbels’, beautiful terracotta floor tiles, exposed beams and joists, sculpted main beam and a remarkable corbel.

4 outbuildings, originally used for agricultural purposes, are spread around the north side, forming a courtyard of honour of great homogeneity.

EQUESTRIAN FACILITIES: below the road, a recently converted equestrian complex, comprising a barn with a wooden structure and steel sheeting, housing 6 boxes (4 x 3 m) with automatic drinking troughs. A fibre-reinforced sand arena (80 x 40 m) has also been created, with a 5,000-litre water reserve for effective watering in the event of drought. 2-bar wooden fences, 1.50m high. Adjacent grass paddock.

The property is situated on a hillside, on a piece of land that has been cleverly shaped into an espalier pattern, making it easy to manage and suitable for all generations.
Essentially made up of non-wetting grassland, the property is perfectly suited to the needs of the horses, which keep the sloping areas in perfect shape. Several paddocks have been created, with no fixed structures (lices), giving future guests who are not keen on horses free rein. A beautiful pond will appeal to fishermen or simple contemplative visitors who will enjoy the fascinating views of the Pays d'Auge from the island.... Apple, pear and other fruit trees, flowerbeds and flowers complete the landscaped setting that surrounds the property.... Deer, wild boar and hares are sure to make their presence felt and remind us that they are part of the scenery! An adjoining 11 x 10m area is reserved for parking vans, lorries and other farm equipment. Manure area. Paddocks. Together, the 33.51 acres (13ha 56a 27ca) of undeveloped land guarantees inviolable tranquillity and an exceptional landscape.
