    Property with pool and garden Nantes (44)

    Excellent location near and south of Nantes, in a quiet area yet very close to all the amenities of two popular cities and a train station. This comfortable and romantic property offers the charm of stone in a verdant setting, creating an atmosphere of peace and serenity. With its style, the beauty of the surroundings, its layout, its existing business and activities ready for immediate occupancy (if desired), its included furniture, its remarkable reputation, and its rare and advantageous zoning designation, this property is ideally suited for high-end event and/or tourism projects with strong development potential. This characterful property is also ideal for large families, lovers of beautiful homes and green spaces, horse riders and owners, agritourism projects, and individuals and families seeking tranquility in a unique and historic setting near Nantes, Clisson, Cholet, and the Atlantic coast. The Château (dating from the 11th, 15th, and 19th centuries), with its medieval character and family-friendly size (494 m²; 8/9 bedrooms, including 5/6 suites), offers an excellent level of comfort, remarkable fireplaces and various period features, and large double-glazed windows providing beautiful views of the park and its ancient trees, as well as the pond and dovecote. In more detail, the property includes: - The Château, which includes, in the basement: Small vaulted cellars; On the ground floor: Large and small entrance halls, living room with coffered ceiling and fireplace, dining room with vegetable gardens and fireplace, two kitchens, utility room (pantry, laundry room), and restrooms. On the mezzanine level: Two en suite bedrooms with private shower rooms and toilets.

Note for project developers: The estate enjoys a very good reputation and offers immediate profitability (current turnover is intentionally limited as the existing business is run on a small scale by and for the enjoyment of the owners, without high financial objectives) combined with significant development potential, especially given the current urban planning regulations which allow for the continuation of installations, constructions, and developments such as tourist accommodations, campsites, reception and wedding venues, orangeries, etc. There is also significant potential for development as a private/professional equestrian property and/or agritourism projects. Additional information: Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) rating for the Château, initially "D" but now downgraded to "E" due to the Greenhouse Gas Emissions (GHG) rating. Property tax: 1,372.
