Description of the buildings
Manor House, on 2 floors, 407m² habitable space.
Ground floor, 153m² with original tiled floors: Entrance hall with magnificent wooden front- and back-doors, 33m²; fully fitted kitchen, 26m²; dining room, 27m² with open fire place and door leading to the garage; lounge, 27m² with stunning fireplace, wood floor; bedroom with separate bathroom, 33m².  A wooden staircase leads to the
1st Floor, 165m², all wooden floors: Spacious landing, 33m², divided into three parts, separated by original stained glass doors; bedrooms 2 and 3, 36 and 38m², with their en-suite bathrooms; bedrooms 4 and 5, 30 and 19m², one actually used as library; a separate passage leads to a first floor apartment, above the garage, 89m² with 3 more bedrooms and an individual toilet. A second wooden staircase leads to the
2nd Floor - Attic 148m².  Beautiful. Ample room to convert into more habitable space.

Caretakers house, 150m² on 2 floors, with 4 bedrooms. Attached to the main house, in need of refurbishment.

Garage, 89m², could be converted together with the 3 room apartment above, into a nice, spacious gite or several B&B rooms.

Pool 8 x 4 m, with automatic cover, terraces and pool-house

Outbuildings
In front of the house, on a decent distance, 2 small barns which could be used as garage or converted into a gym or playroom. Next to the grass-land another building used for small cattle. Former characteristic 2 storey water-tower-mill, not in use anymore which possibly could be converted. Tennis court, in need of refurbishment.

Grounds
Romantic driveway, surrounded by trees and bushes leads to the stunning, well kept, French gardens. Almost 1 hectare of nice grassland, well separated from the house and its gardens. 3 wells with abundant water.  Several cosy corners, for relaxing in the shade.

General condition
The Manor house needs some updating but is in good condition: electricity redone some years ago, like the roofs. Heating by electric convectors. 2 septic tanks. Mains water.

Comment
A beautiful and authentic property, with lots of character and charm. Could be used as a main or holiday residence. Many opportunities to create a flourishing gite and-or B&B business. As such a property is hard to find and not many on the market, a speedy visit is highly recommended.
