Vineyard Saumur (49)
In a tranquil and picturesque valley between the renowned towns of Chinon and Saumur, and equidistant from Tours and Angers, lies this extraordinary Loire Valley wine estate. Set on a gentle south-facing slope and enclosed by handsome stone walls, the château and its surrounding grounds enjoy a privileged position in one of France’s most ancient, and fashionable wine regions. Dating back to the early Middle Ages and thoughtfully restored in the 19th and 20th centuries, the château offers approximately 1,500 sqm of living space arranged over three levels, around a central courtyard. The property is in excellent structural condition, with traditional slate roofs, tuffeau stone façades, and oak roof beams. One wing of the château has been renovated to high standards, while another section remains to be completed, creating an ideal opportunity for a buyer to imprint their own vision and style. The ground floor features a fully equipped kitchen, two dining rooms, a breakfast room, a music room, and two gracious salons. The first floor comprises four spacious bedrooms, each with its own en-suite bathroom, while the top level offers a games room, a private office, an additional bedroom with en-suite, and a cinema room. Flanking the courtyard are several ancillary buildings, including two future apartments and two very large reception halls, served by a professional-grade kitchen. Until recently, these spaces hosted elegant weddings and private events, adding another dimension of business potiential to the property. A true highlight of the property is its spectacular wine cellar, beside the vineyard, purpose-built at great expense for high-end tastings and private events. This remarkable octagonal tasting room, adorned with hand-painted frescoes, and 75 hectolitre oak barrels, is connected via lift to an extensive network of underground cellars—undoubtedly among the largest and most impressive in the region. Inside, handsome oak barrels evoke centuries of winemaking tradition. The estate’s 14.8-hectare vineyard was planted in 1994, with its first harvest in 1997. Today, 30% of the vines are Chenin Blanc, classified under the prestigious *Saumur Blanc – AOC Puy Notre Dame*, while the remaining 70% are Cabernet Franc, under *Saumur Rouge – AOC Puy Notre Dame*. The vineyard is currently leased to a winemaker under a short-term agreement, which will conclude after the upcoming harvest. Grapes are currently vinified at the cooperative winery in Saint-Cyr-en-Bourg. No stock is included in the sale, but the infrastructure in place allows for an immediate continuation or reimagining of production. Adding further charm and heritage to the estate are several historic outbuildings: a 15th-century stone dovecote, an ornamental music pavilion, and the 17th-century Sainte-Marthe chapel—meticulously restored by a noted artist. Together, these elements contribute to the unique spirit of this property, where history, viticulture, and timeless elegance converge.

House Piégut-Pluviers (24)
The absolute tranquillity surrounding this majestic country house—discreet yet of incomparable presence—is truly exceptional. Nestled in the heart of 34 hectares of meadows and woodland, with no immediate neighbours, only the nearby river gently interrupts the silence. Such an environment is exceedingly rare. At the end of a private driveway of approximately 600 metres, running alongside the Tardoire River for several hundred metres, the estate reveals itself as a world of its own. A large gate marks the entrance to this secluded property, where nature sets the rhythm of the seasons. A private wooden bridge completes the bucolic setting and reinforces the unique character of the place. The main house, offering around 270 m² of living space, stands out with its stately silhouette and south-facing orientation. Its perfectly symmetrical façade, draped in Virginia creeper, spans two levels around tall shuttered windows. The small-pane windows flanking the entrance door lend the property remarkable architectural elegance, characteristic of the region. Beside the house stands an immense barn of approximately 450 m² in excellent condition, impressive both in size (47 metres long by 10 metres wide) and in its authentic rural architecture. Opening onto both the courtyard and the fields, it offers rare potential: workshop, reception space, collection storage, or any large-scale project—while respecting the character of the estate. The house is habitable as it stands, but requires complete refurbishment to bring it up to modern standards and allow for personalisation worthy of a residence of this calibre. On the ground floor: a large living room with fireplace, a generous dining room, a light-filled kitchen, and a shower room. Upstairs: four bedrooms and a bathroom. The ancient oak beam ceilings, original flooring, and monumental fireplaces all contribute to the authenticity and character of the residence.

Around the courtyard, a collection of small stone outbuildings, a large vegetable garden, mature trees, and other heritage elements compose an exclusive, discreet, and remarkably generous estate—an exceptional rarity in this part of the region.

It stands as both a living piece of French intellectual history and a stunning architectural landmark, making it a once-in-a-generation opportunity for discerning buyers.

Private mansion Chinon (37)
This elegant property offers a unique opportunity to live in an exceptional historic monument, transformed into a very comfortable home. The property was originally a convent built in the Middle Ages to house the monks of the magnificent church nearby. It sits on the western flanks of a pretty historic town in the Loire Valley.All the amenities of the town centre are within walking distance, but the feeling once you are inside the property is one of being in the countryside as the views overlook the peaceful countryside, accessible in a few minutes' walk from the house. All the important original architectural features have been carefully preserved, including the monumental stone fireplaces, stone staircase, mullioned windows, magnificent roof and ceiling beams, part of the cloister, the wine cellars and the remarkable carved stone well. The exceptionally high ceilings create spacious, high-ceilinged rooms that remain cool in the height of summer, but the sophisticated underfloor heating keeps the house very warm during the winter months. On the ground floor is a series of large, stately reception rooms: kitchen, living room, hallway and dining room. Large windows overlook either the French gardens to the west or the cloister to the east. On the first floor, there are 5 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms. At the top of the remarkable 16th-century staircase is one of the ‘jewels’ of the property, a huge, beautifully restored attic, which has been used as a painter's studio. Owning a listed historic monument in France is both a privilege and a unique opportunity to become the guardian of the country's rich cultural heritage. These exceptional properties offer unparalleled architectural character. Living in a historic monument means living in history. This picturesque town, located just a 15-minute drive from the Royal Abbey of Fontevraud, in the heart of the Loire Valley and major cultural centres such as Saumur, Chinon and Poitiers, offers a rare combination of rural tranquillity and easy access to modern amenities, including shops, schools, services, healthcare and transport. Paris is accessible by TGV from Tours in 55 minutes and international airports are found within 1 hour's drive. This area is exceptionally rich in cultural events, fine dining, food and antique markets vivid with colour and impeccable products year-round.
