An exceptional character property in the Pays de Caux
After passing the brick gate, a long, majestic driveway lined with lime trees leads you to the property, offering a spectacle of great elegance from the very entrance. The mansion, built with Saint-Jean bricks typical of this region of Normandy, authentically embodies the charm of 18th-century noble residences. Built over a magnificent vaulted cellar, the building proudly stands on three levels. The ground floor houses superb reception rooms and a high-end kitchen, designed to welcome guests in a refined setting. Two separate staircases lead to the upper floors, where numerous bedrooms and bathrooms offer family and guests resolutely contemporary comfort.
A park and an intimate garden
The park, magnificently planted with ancient trees, reflects the prestige and character of the mansion. At the rear, sheltered from the wind and prying eyes, a charming cottage garden offers a peaceful haven conducive to relaxation. This intimate setting is perfect for hosting convivial summer receptions, while also providing an ideal playground for children. A swimming pool could easily be accommodated, as could a vegetable garden or landscaping for gardening enthusiasts. To the side, the former cart shed has been cleverly converted into a reception room, ideal for warm and bucolic celebrations.
Elegant and highly useful outbuildings
Extending the mansion, the former groom's house and stables have been converted into independent offices equipped with essential amenities for employees. A chicken coop houses a few hens that produce delicious organic eggs. Finally, a huge garage-workshop was built in the style of the owner, who is passionate about beautiful antique machinery.
The Alabaster Coast and the Pays de Caux
Located in the triangle formed by Dieppe, Rouen, and Le Havre, the Pays de Caux is distinguished by its verdant valleys and wooded hillsides, crisscrossing an authentic landscape. To the north, it is bordered by the spectacular Alabaster Coast, famous for its white chalk cliffs, the highest in Europe.
The beaches of Pourville, Sainte-Marguerite, Saint-Aubin-sur-Mer, and Veules-les-Roses attract lovers of swimming, relaxation, and water sports. The GR21, which runs along the Alabaster Coast, is the second most popular hiking trail in France. The rich and varied local architectural heritage reveals castles, manors, stately homes, and Anglo-Norman villas, witnesses to a prestigious past.
Our property for sale, located south of Dieppe, enjoys a privileged setting near a dynamic town whose port history still shapes its identity today. With its marina welcoming over 400 boats, its cross-Channel terminal served by two ferries to England, its fishing port, and its commercial port, Dieppe remains a lively town year-round.
In summer, the town reveals its finest assets to become a warm and lively seaside resort, offering its visitors a clever blend of history, culture, and the seaside.
Two hours from Porte Maillot and three hours from Brussels, this characterful property offers a truly exceptional living environment.
