Historic 5-Bed Manor with Expansive Grounds in Normandy

Le Manoir de Dougeru is an exceptional manor house built between the 16th and 17th centuries, officially protected as a Listed Historic Monument (Monument Historique). The estate stretches across 3.98 acres of private land, surrounded by tranquil, hedged farmland in Southern Manche, providing an authentic Norman countryside experience.

The property features a stunning collection of historic buildings framing a beautiful courtyard, including the main manor house, a chapel, a pigeonnier (dovecote), and a stable and barn. The manor's architecture showcases robust granite stone, an elegant round tower, and projecting pavilions that accentuate its historical significance. The elevated position ensures commanding views over the rolling, wooded countryside, particularly from the spacious upstairs rooms.

Inside, the manor house balances period grandeur with practical living. The grand entrance hall with a stone-paved floor leads to reception areas, including a salon with a monumental granite fireplace. The kitchen, accessible from both the salon and hall, flows into a distinguished dining room featuring a unique round tower staircase, enhancing the ideal setting for entertaining. The upper floors offer spacious sleeping quarters, consisting of four large bedrooms and a smaller children's bedroom, all benefiting from natural light and historical features. The top floor provides a dedicated study area and a library beneath the original roof frame, creating a secluded space for work or quiet contemplation.
