Herqueville, Upper Normandy 27430

One hour from Paris, in the northeast of Eure, a 1935 Art Deco villa and its 3-hectare park. The property is accessible by a short driveway, with the only neighboring feature a small village church recently renovated. Beyond a substantial wooden porch surrounded by stone walls lies a 3-hectare wooded park around a wide lawn. Built in 1935 as a residence for the niece of industrialist Louis Renault, the villa is Art Deco in style. The property also includes two small single-room houses, one wooden near the villa and the other stone, which served as a billiard room. The main dwelling is two storeys above a full basement, arranged in an M-plan. The structure is concrete. The central block follows an eastwest axis, flanked by two perpendicular wings set back slightly from the north-facing facade by the Seine. The high roofs are covered with Normandy tiles and the chimney stacks recall surrounding houses. The estate comprises over 500 m² of living space.
