The new properties for sale
We very much like this quality new project in
the Belle Epoque seaside town of Houlgate and
less than 30 minutes from Caen-Ouistreham ferry
port. Located in an established quiet
residential area it is minutes from the
town’s fine 18 holes golf course and from
the main shopping street with shops and
restaurants and market square. Well laid out
and attractively landscaped the development is
enclosed and gated and offers a
residents’ tennis court and on site
caretaker.The architecture is reminiscent of
the traditional Norman style with pitched roofs
and timbered gable ends. The houses are located
in the heart of the development and they
benefit from a private lawned garden with a
pleasant south or south west outlook. Each
property has an adjacent garage and cellar.
Offering spacious modern accommodation the
homes are suited for permanent or holiday
residency with the living rooms fitted with
a chimney flu. A
quality well located and well priced
development minutes from a superb beach.
The area
Only 9 miles west from the glamorous resort of
Deauville, Houlgate has retained its friendly
character and is a well established family
favourite on the Normandy coast. It boasts a
huge sandy beach which is a superb playground
for the children and which offers a wide range
of facilities including beach volley ball,
sailing, horseriding, etc. Houlgate also has a
lovely seafront promenade lined with Victorian
villas, several excellent restaurants, fine
shops and boutiques and a lively popular
market. The area is also steeped in history
with the Landing Beaches, the Peace Memorial in
Caen and the famous Bayeux Tapistry a short
drive away.

opinion.
