Betteville, Upper Normandy 76190

In Normandy, in the pays de Caux, 35 minutes from Rouen, a 19th-century home, its outbuilding and enclosed 3, 400-m garden. A gate opens onto a gravel driveway, which leads to both the main house and the outbuilding located at the back of the lot. The two buildings are separated from each other by an expansive lawn. The house, the masonry of which is in 'Saint John' brick and ashlar stone, forms a U shape with a dovecote and a small perpendicular wing, organised around a central patio. The roof, cadenced with roof offsets and shed dormers, is in slate. The enclosed landscaped garden, which extends to the southwest, is surrounded by tall arbours, guaranteeing privacy. Past that, a recent housing development is integrated into verdant landscapes and fields that go on forever.
