16th Century Chateau For Sale in St Hilaire Du Harcouet, Normandy France 16th Century Chateau For Sale Asking Price: 500,000 € *** Update***
We have just reduced the Chateau by over €50,000 for a quick sale!
This beautiful French Chateau is in a lovely location, with a shop/café within walking distance. We are told this sort of property rarely comes onto the market.
The property lends itself to various income opportunities, which we would be happy to discuss with interested parties, it would also make an ideal Country Retreat or Family Home.
Originally built in the 16th Century, the Chateau consists of 2 wings, built in 1581 and added to in 1820
The property offers large accomodation (approx 400 m2 of habitable space, which excludes the attic & cellar space) including a Large Kitchen & pantry, Dining Room, Large Salon (drawing room), Snug, Study, plus other smaller reception rooms, there are 7 Bedrooms (most with en-suite, or ensuite potential), very large attic which is also ripe for conversion should you wish to add extra bedrooms.
There is approx 3.5 Hectares of land, including formal gardens, paddocks (suitable for horses, cattle, sheep etc), there is also another piece of land which would be ideal for a riding arena if equestrian pursuits are of interest to you (or use as an additional paddock), or also ideal for tennis courts. There is currently no swimming pool but there are numerous places where a pool could be installed if required.
There are also a wide range of outbuildings, including a stable block with hay loft, kennels, large greenhouse, gardener’s cottage, garage, hangar, & very large workshop, plus a purpose built vegetable garden with full watering system.
The large caves (cellars) under the property still contain the original cider barrels from when the property was run as a successful Cider producing Chateau some years ago. These would be ideally used as large wine cellars, or for extra storage.
All of the original features remain intact, these include the wooden floors throughout the property (mainly Oak), fireplaces in most rooms (huge inglenook fireplace in kitchen), period wood panelled walls & oak staircase, original stone food warmer and stone sink remain in the kitchen.
The property has mains electric, mains water, and central heating.
Although totally habitable (we live full time in the house) the property is in need of some restoration work but just oozes potential with a capital “P”. The possibilities are endless, and the house gives you so many features to work with, that it really is an enjoyable task. We have started the work, and we will continue to improve the Chateau until sold.
The chateau is situated on a quiet country lane, a short walk to the small village centre with shop/cafe, and only a 10 min drive to 2 large towns, that offer a wide range of amenities, inc supermarkets, DIY shops, Restaurants & Bars, Garden Centres and typical French Markets.
The Chateau offers enormous scope for various business ventures, and "large profits" once restoration work has been completed (happy to discuss with serious potential buyers). “Serious enquiries only please”
