Discover a 'secret place' where the majesty of the Seine meets the serenity of the French countryside. Perched within the protected Parc Naturel Régional des Boucles de la Seine, this exceptional 160 m2 residence offers a rare combination of panoramic river views and absolute privacy. Set on an expansive 2,000 m2 plot along a quiet private road, this property is a sanctuary for those seeking an authentic Norman lifestyle in a breathtaking natural environment.
The Residence: Character and Versatility
The house seamlessly blends traditional Norman charm—evidenced by its rustic ceiling beams and cozy open fireplace—with a layout designed for modern flexibility. Spanning three well-appointed floors, the interior is bathed in light and offers a sense of space that mirrors the outdoors.
* The Ground Floor: Entry is gained through a large, practical veranda equipped with ample storage. The heart of the home is the inviting living room, where the open fireplace serves as a focal point for winter evenings. This level also features a fully equipped kitchen and a quiet bedroom overlooking the rear garden. For added convenience, this floor includes a modern shower room and a separate toilet.
* The First Floor: This level is dedicated to the stunning vistas of the Seine. It houses two spacious bedrooms with direct river views, alongside a versatile music room that can easily serve as a fourth bedroom. A well-appointed bathroom with a bathtub and toilet serves this floor.
* The Second Floor: Tucked away for ultimate privacy, the top floor features an additional bedroom complemented by its own bathroom and separate toilet, making it an ideal guest suite or teenager’s retreat.
A unique feature of this property is its dual private entrances for the ground-floor bedroom and one of the first-floor bedrooms, offering excellent potential for a guest house, home office, or multi-generational living.
Outdoor Living & Mature Grounds
The exterior of the property is as enchanting as the interior. To the rear, a 30 m2 covered wooden terrace provides an elevated vantage point over the garden—perfect for al fresco dining regardless of the weather.

ABOUT THE AREA
Barneville-sur-Seine is a picturesque commune located in the Eure department of Normandy, northern France. Situated on the southern bank of a dramatic meander of the River Seine, the village occupies a prime position within the Boucles de la Seine Normande Regional Natural Park. This setting offers residents and visitors sweeping views of the river and the lush, forested hillsides that characterize this scenic stretch between the cities of Rouen and Le Havre.
The village is steeped in traditional Norman charm, featuring a mix of half-timbered houses and classic stone architecture. Historically, its economy was tied to the river and the surrounding fertile lands, which continue to support local agriculture today. One of the town’s focal points is its historic church, which serves as a testament to the long-standing community roots in this quiet, verdant corner of Upper Normandy.
Outdoor enthusiasts are drawn to Barneville-sur-Seine for its extensive network of walking and cycling trails that wind through the river valley. Its location is strategically ideal for exploring nearby cultural landmarks, such as the majestic ruins of Jumièges Abbey, located just a short ferry ride across the Seine, or the charming riverside village of La Bouille. The blend of natural serenity and cultural heritage makes it a sought-after location for those looking for an authentic French countryside experience.
