Deauville, 6 Bedrooms - 306 m² House for sale

At the end of a private cul-de-sac in Deauville, just 300 metres’ walk from the beach, this remarkable property is an ideal setting for creating a wonderful family home.

The house has a rich history. It was built under the Third Republic and originally named “La Cour Poissy”. The estate comprised six buildings, houses and stables, arranged around a central lawn. In the 1920s the Vanderbilt family, the renowned American dynasty, converted it into a residence. They added two storeys and the interior decoration that survives intact today, including the columns, mouldings and staircase. In 1980 the estate was divided into six lots and sold separately, and the grounds were partitioned into their current layout. The façades of all the houses have been kept as they were in the 1920s and are listed (inscrites) as Historic Monuments.

The house offers approximately 350 m² (3,767 sq ft) of living space, generous proportions, six bedrooms and four bathrooms. It comprises:

On the garden level: an entrance hall and a vast, light-filled double reception room opening onto the front garden, with a drawing room and a dining room. There is also a kitchen with scullery, a sitting room and library, a utility room, a shower room, a separate WC and a boiler room.
On the first floor: two large suites, each with a dressing room and bathroom, plus two further bedrooms and a bathroom.
On the second floor, reached by its own staircase from the rear garden: two bedrooms and a bathroom. This floor works well for welcoming family and friends, who can stay with complete independence.

The house stands on a 750 m² plot (8,073 sq ft) with two walled gardens. One faces south and is fully sheltered; the other is on the sea side.

The house requires full renovation. It offers remarkable potential for anyone who wants to create a property of their own, combining period charm with a contemporary specification.

Its location close to the beach and the centre of Deauville makes it a particularly attractive address, as a main or second home.

A fine opportunity for lovers of period houses looking to take on a renovation project in one of Deauville’s sought-after areas.
