Une Élégante Résidence Du Second Empire Et Un Parc À Côté D'une Forêt Dans Le Vexin

An elegant Second Empire residence and grounds next to a forest in the Vexin region. A gravelled driveway leads to the main residence, set back slightly on the edge of parkland spanning almost 2.7 hectares. Built in 1850 in the Second Empire style by Frédéric Schumacher, founder of the eponymous company, it has around 700 m² of living space over several floors. This vast mansion features symmetrical, structured architecture, with a central body flanked by two slightly protruding wings, which give rhythm to the aesthetics of the façade. The Mansard-style natural slate roof features bull’s eye dormers, ornate pediments and a finial. At one end, a bell tower with a domed roof evokes the neo-Renaissance or neo-Louis XIII style typical of holiday homes of the period. The whole structure rests on a base of exposed rubble stone, while the walls are rendered in light tones. The main house has 20 rooms, including 12 bedrooms, as well as numerous service areas and converted outbuildings. It is currently organised into four separate units: three flats and a house. All have separate access, but could easily be brought together to bring the building back to its original unity. Opposite the property, a detached caretaker’s cottage has three rooms on two levels. Other outbuildings – a former wash-house with a bread oven, cellar, workshop, sheds, kennels and 12 horse stalls – dot the rest of the property. A large parking area has been created at a distance from the house.
