Damaged during the D-Day landings and with a patina of age, this blockhouse is no longer like any other: it was converted into a home some twenty years ago. Its owner put this very special dwelling up for sale two months ago. Price: €214,000. “The rarity of this blockhouse is that it’s habitable. It’s probably the only one on the French market at the moment,” Jeremy Rousel, estate agent with Pozzo, the firm handling the sale, tells Ouest-France.
A single living room
Given the design of the building and its 100 square metre walls, the house consists of a single 75 square metre living room with just two openings: two bay windows fitted with roller shutters. According to France 3 Basse-Normandie, you can visit the house in 24 seconds flat.
But all the comforts are there: fitted and equipped kitchen, shower room and heat pump heating (energy class: D). But no separate bedroom. Despite, or because of, the thickness of the walls, some waterproofing work remains to be done.
