A unique setting located at the very end of Pointe de Barfleur, at the foot of the Gatteville Lighthouse, this building was, during the 19th century, entirely dedicated to the lighthouse surveillance staff; housing, bakery and even a school for the keepers' children. Having become a family home and passed down from generation to generation since 1900, this property, despite necessary reconstruction after the Second World War, has retained all its authenticity; old tiles, fireplaces, woodwork, parquet floors.

- Ground floor: consists of a large entrance hall with closet, a dining room with fireplace, a large living room with fireplace and a kitchen.

- Upstairs: the landing leads to 4 bedrooms, an office, a bathroom (and shower) and toilet.

- Above: The 3 attics above are potentially convertible (subject to planning permission).

- Exterior: The large rear terrace is well-exposed and sheltered.

The garden, a three-sided enclosure, is enclosed by stone walls and planted with shrubs, fruit trees, flowers, etc.

The property requires renovation work, but Le Clos du Raz (that's its name) is an inspiring and tranquil place, with the moorland, marshes, sea, reefs, and the famous lighthouse as its backdrop and playground. In short, everything invites you to let go, stroll, and contemplate.

This property has excessive energy consumption. Estimated annual energy costs for standard use: between €4,070 and €5,560 per year. Average energy prices indexed for the years 2021, 2022 and 2023 (including subscriptions).

The department of Manche is in Lower Normandy and is bordered with Calvados, Orne, Mayenne and Ille-et-Vilaine. The English Channel in the west, north and north-west coastlines makes getting here to its many ports very easy from the UK. There is also an airport in Caen and many others are easily accessible in the surrounding regions such as Rennes airport.

History is all over the department through its museums and heritage, discovering the local traditions and culture as well as Chateaux, religious monuments, water mills, maritime sites and gardens is easy to do. The biggest ’must-do’ is a visit to Mont Saint Michel.

Tourism plays a major role in the economy of the department which is fine because there is so much to see and do.
