Ref.4427 : Beautiful French castle for sale in Pays de la Loire, Sarthe department. This property is located around 200 km from Paris, in the Sarthe department, 40 km north-west of Le Mans, in the heart of the countryside, in a pretty, green, undulating region, close to the Normandie Maine regional park. The Normandie Maine regional park covers more than 250,000ha and includes 164 communes in the Orne, Manche, Mayenne and Sarthe departments, spanning two regions: Normandy and Pays de la Loire. The Normandie-Maine Park territory is built around a series of sandstone ridges crowned by vast forests, stretching 100 kilometers from west to east and including the highest peaks in western France. Over the centuries, this contrasting geomorphology has contributed to the organization of the region. On the one hand, there are the high altitude, steeply sloping areas, which are less populated and suffer from a combination of farming constraints (isolation, poor exposure, shallow, stony soils, etc.). These areas have had and continue to have fragile, rather extensive farming systems, enabling them to maintain a certain “authenticity” to their landscapes. On the other hand, there are the more humanized and often more open sectors, which are subject to more intensive farming systems and are home to the majority of the area's inhabitants.
