Verneuil D'avre Et D'iton - 400.0 sqm - 11 Bedrooms

Property Description

This property is set in the heart of open countryside, within a walled parkland of 6 acres. The 18th-century manor house is built over three storeys, with a dual-aspect ground floor that lends the reception and living rooms remarkable volume and light, offering an immersive view across the verdant parkland.
The quality of the renovations provides this house with modern comforts that blend beautifully with the charm of the old, from the herringbone parquet flooring to the generous proportions of the ground-floor reception rooms laid out en enfilade. On the upper floors, where the original terracotta floor tiles serve as a reminder of the building's history, residents enjoy spacious bedrooms, modern bathrooms, and numerous dressing rooms.
The small adjoining outbuilding houses the boiler room and a log store, complete with a period bread oven. Set around a sweeping lawn, the grounds further comprise: a rocaille-style former water tower elegant period stables with 4 loose boxes a charming two-storey caretaker's cottage of 80 sqm, superbly renovated for use as a gîte or guest house and a modern, well-appointed stable block with 6 garages, 7 loose boxes, and a tack room. A former outbuilding converted into a gîte has its own independent entrance gate and enclosed garden, offering complete privacy and the possibility of bringing pets. This gîte (rated 3 épis by Gîtes de France) is sold furnished and fully equipped.
The grounds are laid out with equestrian pursuits in mind, featuring 2 paddocks and an Olympic-size arena in close proximity to the house, allowing owners to keep a watchful eye on their horses and share in their daily life. For rides out, simply pass through the gate and the countryside opens up before you, towards the Avre valley.
