Marigny-Le-Lozon, Lower Normandy 50570

In the bocage of Cotentin, 15 minutes from Saint-Lô, a manor dating from the 15th and 18th centuries, with its outbuildings and dovecote on an 8-hectare estate. From a road, a tree-lined driveway descends to a valley. The manor appears after a dovecote and outbuildings. It was once a Protestant house and belonged to the Dagobert family. A wide gravel esplanade punctuated by a stone well precedes the facade on the courtyard side. The architecture bears witness to the two construction periods, between the 15th and early 18th centuries. Raised one level with attics, the dwelling is pierced by multiple bays under a slate roof. On the garden side, the facade is rhythmically punctuated by a circular stair tower topped with a pepper-pot slate roof. The stone walls are punctuated by large mullioned windows. The two wings connect at every level. They can also be converted into separate dwellings.
