Castle in Alençon, France
Price: $6,346,200, 26 Bedrooms, 432 acres

Situated in Normandy, in the south of the Orne département, at the forefront of the Normandie-Maine Regional Nature Park, this elegant property enjoys a privileged rural setting, nestling between civilisation and nature.
The Ecouves forest, a natural area of more than 8,000 hectares of state-owned land, with its varied relief and expanses of centuries-old oak and beech trees, where flora and fauna live in perfect harmony; wild waterways, ponds... this is the exceptional setting that Lonray can make its own forever. A benevolent setting, a source of serenity... and well-being!
The prefecture of the Orne department, Alençon, with its 25,000 inhabitants, remains a major administrative and economic centre, with all the shops and services you need for everyday life less than 2 leagues away. As a recognised communications hub, road, motorway and rail links are just a few minutes away, providing easy access to the capital, among other places.
THE CHATEAU : Inspired by Flemish and Italian art, the château's balanced west facade comprises a massive main building in white stone, flanked by two more refined brick wings.
Walls and pilasters enhance the bareness of the surfaces and support the balconies; the very high slate roofs are enhanced by bull's eye dormers, and the quadrangular chimneys with curved pediments contribute to a lighter appearance.
The cross-headed windows are slender and high, with wooden frames, arranged in regular bays and topped with pediments or carved keys.

Castle in Coeur Centre Ville - Bayeux, France
Price $1,421,400, Surface 466 m², 8 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, 7,000 m² land

Located between Bayeux and Caen, 15 kilometers from the sea, this 19th century castle is nestled in the heart of a charming village in the Bessin region. It offers a living space of 466 m2 and all the current comfort. The park of 7000 m2 shelters several outbuildings.
Built around 1870, the castle stands out with its neogothic architecture. High stone walls and a large portal barely hide its richly worked façade. Many elements seem to testify to an esoteric construction - a symbolic account of the search for the philosopher's stone. The monumental stone staircase, the stained glass windows, the woodwork, the parquet floors and the period fireplaces give charm and authenticity to this singular residence.
The castle benefits from all the modern comfort. The roof, the windows and the heating system are recent. The high ceiling of about 3 meters makes it an easy to heat house. The numerous windows bring clarity and light. Several rooms have a triple aspect. The layout is rational and balanced.
On the first floor, the entrance hall with its stone staircase distributes, on the one hand, a reception room and a living room, and on the other hand, a dining room, a kitchen and an office-library.
The second floor includes six bedrooms, a bathroom with bath and shower, and a separate toilet.
On the second floor, which is partially attic, there are seven rooms of various sizes as well as a shower room and a bathroom.
