Yvetot, 4 Bedrooms - 379 m² Castle for sale

In the Pays de Caux, near Yvetot and 1 hour 45 minutes from Paris, a castle built in the late 16th century stands in a peaceful setting surrounded by countryside.

Carefully maintained by its owners, this château dating from the reign of Henry IV is a fine example of late Renaissance civil architecture in the Pays de Caux. With 379 m² of living space, it is a family home on a human scale.

Built around 1575 on a feudal motte by the Langlois de Canteleu de Motteville family, it has remained in private ownership to this day. Framed by two corner turrets and topped by a high slate roof, its façade of Saint-Jean bricks, interspersed with glazed bricks, glows in the sunlight.

The white, openwork door opens onto the entrance hall and its stone staircase. To the left, the large living room, measuring approximately 65 m², features carved wooden panelling and a listed fireplace with finely chiselled decorations.

Behind a concealed door lies the kitchen, which has two exits to the outside and a large open hearth. A staircase leads to a pantry and a utility room, completing the service area.

On the other side of the entrance hall is a second reception room of approximately 37 m².

Upstairs, the landing leads to two large bedrooms, an office and a bathroom.

The second floor comprises an apartment featuring a small kitchen, a shower room, a bedroom and a living room (or additional bedroom).

In opposit, a second sleeping area comprises two bedrooms and a bathroom.

The grounds, covering approximately 1.6 hectares and extending on either side of the main house, feature historic outbuildings. These include, on the ground floor, two workshops, a car park and a woodshed. Upstairs is a four-room apartment.

The estate enjoys a strategic location, just 10 minutes from Yvetot. This vibrant town offers a wide range of shops, services and schools. Its SNCF station provides a connection to Paris-Saint-Lazare in 1 hour 30 minutes.

By road, Rouen is 35 minutes away, Deauville 1 hour and Paris 1 hour 45 minutes.

This country house, parts of which are listed as Historic Monuments, offers a peaceful living environment. To complete the property, it is also possible to purchase an adjoining woodland plot as an additional purchase.
