Normandy Family Estate ~ ANALPA
Quartier les Anglais / Cote Harpie
14130 Quetteville, FRANCE
Property Exterior
This architecturally significant Normandy family estate was completed in 1985 by Fernando Burmeister, a principal assistant and collaborator of the world renown master architect Oscar Niemeyer. Niemeyer, considered one of the most important figures in international modern architecture, is most famous for his design of Brazil’s new capital city of Brasilia: spacious and exposed, a masterwork of planning and building.
The 2,000 square feet estate house, almost chapel like in its secluded setting, is warmly nestled into a sea of green; 10,000 sq. meters of rolling park-like lawns and meadows are punctuated with maple, cherry, apple and oak trees, and flowering rhododendrons, with plenty of space for children to play, for your family and friends to picnic in one of two gazebos, or to just sit outside and soak up the northern French sun.
Property Interior
When you enter this peaceful, modern family retreat, sweep past the delightfully, sun-lit interior tropical garden directly down to the sunken, oversized living area. Gather here with family and friends, and enjoy afternoon cocktails around the floor to ceiling grey-slate fireplace, as the golden Norman light blushes through the wall of French doors and windows, and dances upon the 20-foot cathedral ceilings. As the sunlight wanes, step up into the formal dining area for an evening of hearty food and good conversation around the marble dinner table, which comfortably seats six to eight, and has direct access to the expansive, fully equipped, gourmet kitchen. After dinner, why not step outside onto the terrace – directly from the dining or living areas – and with a glass of brandy enjoy the stars as they pop out into the northern French sky? When your day is done, take a hot, refreshing shower, or relax in the sunken bathtub, in one of the two fully appointed bathrooms. Then retire to one of three entry level bedrooms, two with queen and one with twin sized beds. Or … perhaps you’d rather climb the spiral staircase to the entertainment mezzanine, wh ich spans the entire interior and overlooks the dining and living areas, There, make plans for the next day’s sightseeing, read for awhile, or watch world-wide programming on the flat screen TV.
Normandy FRANCE
Historically significant and stunningly beautiful, Normandy boasts too many sites to mention: abbeys, basilicas, cathedrals, chateaux; battles grounds, museums, paintings, tapestries; beaches, golf courses, horse tracks, sailing races, markets ….
Normandy is home to some of the most significant battle sites of World War II: Omaha and Utah Beaches, where the allies landed in June 1944.
Additionally, Normandy hosts the Belle-Epoque sea-side resorts of Deauville and Trouville. Nearby Honfleur, situated on the mouth of the Seine, is considered by many to be France’s most beautiful town.
Horses are the pride of Normandy – this bucolic area is known for its equestrian trade: breeding, dressage, saddlery, riding and competitions.
Here are some of the interesting comments from stars, movie makers, producers, etc.. regarding "la Cote Normande" and the annual American Film Festival in Deauville. Extracts from "20 Minutes" press folio/10 p on Deauville American Film Festival / Sept 5, 08.
…”Why American celebrities like Deauville so much?”
Meryl Streep
…”I never experienced such a warm welcome. Everyone here gives the impression he lives a true passion for cinema. I had not enough time to see the movies although this festival brings in what best American cinema produces. Flavours for all tastes are gathered in this very nice resort in Normandy. What a pleasure actually to see that classic films are still projected in movie theatres thus allowing the younger public to discover them on the real screen!”….
Tom Hanks
…”Those people who say that French do not like Americans never came to Deauville. Showing a movie in front of such a large and packed theatre is a total happiness. There is everything I like in this festival, including great food (“la bonne bouffe!”). Furthermore Normandy is a superb region. Organizers have perfectly understood that stars also need to relax and breathe at ease along a magnificient seashore”….
Abel Ferrara
…”Deauville is the only one festival in the world exclusively dedicated to American movies, and this is “formidable”! One has the impression that he is projected and viewed as both a film maker/producer/actor and an American under his best angle. One can go and drink with friends and freely meet French spectators, much more open than those in the US. I’ll come back and shall pass on the message….”….
George Clooney
…”Deauville is cool! Nothing to see with Cannes where you are afraid some one might lynch you as soon as you set a foot outside your hotel. People are more civilized and much less stressed in here. I adore taking time to sign autographs simply because fans are real polite. The selection and quality of programming is also an important assets in this festival. It is surely rewarding to see your movie projected in (very) good company”….
