A rare opportunity to buy a classic Napoleon III chateau, built in 1870 located in the Normandy countryside. The chateau faces south so the sunlight streams in through the huge windows.

This elegant chateau is set in rolling countryside but is just a mile from a pretty village and ten miles from the sea.

The impressive property has a huge open plan entertaining space plus a newly fitted kitchen, study and shower room on the ground floor, which all open out onto a 80 foot long terrace and a huge lawn.

Upstairs there are six bedrooms. Four are ensuite and two rooms share a shower room.The two turrets could be converted but are currently used as storage.There is also a three metre high cellar, which could make a great cinema room.

All the rooms are three metres high with full height windows. Despite its large, airy feel, the chateau is cosy in winter. There is oil fired central heating plus a log burner. Many of the rooms also have working fireplaces including the kitchen with a bbq fireplace.

The gardens are mainly set out as lawn with an incredible number of beautiful mature trees in a stunning array of colours.

Should you need more space there are a row of three cottages are available by separate negotiation. There are two cottages with two bedrooms and a one bedroomed cottage. They have their own entrance and are completely separated from the main chateau. They would also make a great games room, garden and accommodation for a gardener.
