Ancient 18th-century Norman stone farmstead with outbuildings to renovate on over 5,000 m² of land
Located in the heart of a historic World War II site, this former stone-built Norman farmstead offers exceptional potential and requires complete renovation.
The traditional stone buildings, topped with tile roofs, are characteristic of historic farms in the region. The property includes several impressive original fireplaces, a former main dwelling house, a cider press building, secondary accommodation, and multiple outbuildings.
Part of the roofing and flooring structure of the main building has already been renovated, and the property is connected to both water and electricity networks.
The property is currently neither heated nor insulated. The potential surface mentioned (around 250 m²) is not habitable in its current condition. Any development project remains subject to planning permission.
Ideally located just 15 minutes drive from Argentan, less than 5 minutes from Trun and Chambois with shops & amenities. An hour drive from sea side and ferry ports.
Set in the heart of the historic Battle of Normandy countryside, this authentic 18th-century Norman stone farmstead offers a rare opportunity to create a character property in one of the most sought-after heritage areas of Normandy, France.
The estate comprises several traditional stone buildings with significant renovation potential, including a farmhouse, an original cider press, a secondary cottage, and multiple agricultural outbuildings, all set on a single plot of approximately 5,710 m².
MAIN STONE FARMHOUSE – 18th Century Character Property
The former main residence dates back to the 18th century (as indicated on the original chimney stack inscription) and is arranged over two floors. The property retains many authentic period features, including impressive original stone fireplaces and spacious rooms that can be redesigned to suit a variety of projects, such as a family home, holiday residence, or hospitality business.
Part of the renovation work has already been completed, including sections of the traditional flat-tile roof, timber framework, and first-floor structure. However, the property still requires full interior renovation and is not currently habitable.
AUTHENTIC CIDER PRESS
A particularly attractive feature of the estate is the former cider press building, showcasing a stone fireplace and the original press screw mechanism on the ground floor. Upstairs, a large room with another original fireplace offers further conversion possibilities. Some roof and structural works were completed prior to 2010.
GUEST HOUSE POTENTIAL
A secondary two-storey stone cottage with fireplaces also requires full renovation. Subject to the necessary planning permissions, this building could potentially be converted into a guest house, gîte, or independent holiday rental, adding approximately 46 m² of additional floor space.
TRADITIONAL STONE OUTBUILDINGS
Several former agricultural outbuildings in local stone remain on the property, some with partially collapsed roofs, offering additional restoration and development opportunities.
LAND & UTILITIES
The property extends over a single cadastral plot of approximately 5,710 m² with multiple access points. Water and electricity are already connected.
The advertised surface area of approximately 250 m² corresponds to the potential usable floor area after renovation of the main building and is not habitable in its current condition. A private drainage/septic system will need to be installed, and all development projects remain subject to planning permission.
PRIME LOCATION IN NORMANDY
Located in a historic village closely associated with the Second World War and the Battle of Normandy, the property enjoys a peaceful rural setting while remaining conveniently accessible.
15 minutes drive from the market city of Argentan and its train station. Less than 5 minutes from Trun and Chambois with shops and weekly market
Under 20 minutes from Vimoutiers and Gacé.
An hour drive from the Normandy seaside and the ferry ports.
Ideal for heritage property lovers, tourism projects, or countryside retreat development in Normandy, France.
