Normandy, Seine-Maritime, Étretat, France

Exceptionally restored 18th century Normandy Chateau with 3 gites, separate apartment and outbuildings, nestling in 11 hectares of beautiful gardens and land near all amenities in Etretat.

Built between 1762 and 1767, this magnificent 13 bedroom Chateau was designed by Joseph Abel, who was architect to King Louis XVI, as a country residence for a count. At the time, it was built entirely in limestone to a single design, with identical north and south elevations.

In recent years the chateau has undergone a complete restoration to the exacting standards required of French historic monuments; the structure and fabric of the chateau are in excellent condition with no expense spared in the quality of the materials used, the craftsmanship employed and the attention to detail.

The new owners will certainly have their own vision and aspirations for the chateau. The property has so much potential to explore in staff accommodation, multiple outbuildings and extensive grounds.

There is an entrance hall, fitted kitchen, living rooms, dining room, library, and WC on the ground floor. Stairs lead to 5 good size bedrooms on the first floor and 4 bedrooms on the second floor, all en suite.

Under the chateau, there are also 300m2 of vaulted limestone cellars with original fireplaces and atmospheric masses.

It is in an excellent location, with extensive restoration work undertaken, has a large number of buildings and generous grounds that make up the estate.

It will appeal to private or commercial buyers who wish to take this magnificent historic property and adapt it to their own needs.
