About the Property

A remarkable 17th-century castle, built in 1636, situated on a private island of 8 hectares in the Bresle Valley, between Normandy and the Bay of Somme. This historical estate, only two hours from Paris, is enveloped by a river and features a hydraulic mill listed as a Historic Monument, alongside beautifully renovated stables. The property encompasses approximately 500 square meters of living space, offering a unique blend of nature, history, and heritage. The estate's castle, constructed for Anne-Marie-Louise of Orléans, known as "La Grande Mademoiselle," boasts light-filled reception rooms, several bedrooms and suites, and significant potential for further development. The hydraulic mill, a true historic centerpiece, retains its original hydraulic wheel and offers a large reception hall of about 130 square meters, with upper floors providing remarkable development opportunities. The rehabilitated stables include a kitchen and several suites with shower rooms, suitable for hosting guests or private events. Surrounded by centenary trees, orchards, and meadows, this estate presents an exceptional environment that has previously hosted bed and breakfast accommodations, cultural events, and the Festival of Glass, showcasing its versatility as a family residence, guest house, or cultural venue.
