Historic 17th-Century Château Overlooking Juno Beach 1.16 ha Walled Park Heart of the D-Day Land

Property Description

Located in the heart of the legendary D-Day Landing Beaches, this remarkable historic estate enjoys an exceptional position within walking distance of Juno Beach, one of the most significant sites of the Allied landings of June 6, 1944. The property is also just minutes from the renowned Canadian Memorial and Juno Beach Centre, making it a place of profound historical resonance, particularly meaningful for North American and Canadian families.

Set in a charming seaside town on the celebrated Côte de Nacre, only 20 minutes from Caen and approximately 2.5 hours from Paris, the château offers a rare opportunity to live within one of the most iconic landscapes of World War Ii history, while enjoying the tranquility and beauty of the Normandy coast.

Perched on a natural promontory overlooking its surroundings, this elegant 17th-century château, listed as a Historic Monument, stands as the final vestige of a former fortified site. Fully restored in the aftermath of World War Ii, the property offers approximately 528 sqm (5,683 sq ft) of living space, combining historic character with generous proportions and abundant natural light.

Accessed via a graceful horseshoe staircase, the main level features an entrance hall, a kitchen with utility room, a magnificent dining room of approximately 60 sqm with fireplace, and two reception salons ideal for entertaining.

The upper floors provide 10 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms, served by a handsome stone staircase. The château is distinguished by the harmony of its stone façades, the quality of its craftsmanship, and refined architectural details, including beautifully sculpted dormer windows.

Inside, several decorative elements have been carefully recreated in keeping with the original spirit of the residence, including period mouldings, parquet flooring, and finely detailed woodwork. At garden level, vaulted cellars testify to the site's ancient origins.

A substantial outbuilding of approximately 390 sqm, with independent access, further enhances the property and offers significant potential for guest accommodation, events, or hospitality use.

The fully enclosed park, landscaped with mature trees and extending over 1.16 hectares (2.86 acres), includes a well, a double garage, and an elegant gated entrance.

A truly unique historic estate at the heart of the D-Day story where heritage, remembrance, and coastal living come together in an extraordinary setting.
