Ref.4213: Charming chateau for sale close to Saumur. This beautiful property, whose origins date back to the 15th century, is located in the Loire Valley, famous for its wine production, its cellars dug into the tufa rock, its history and its châteaux. The region has seen a fortunate succession of lordly families whose history has contributed to the heritage of Anjou. Having put down roots in this culturally rich and dynamic environment, the town nevertheless enjoys a certain tranquillity, being isolated from the outside world by a natural green setting. The main shops are just a 3-minute drive away, in the neighbouring village. The town of Saumur, with its famous cavalry school, is 10 minutes away, offering all the shops, services and tourist activities you could wish for. Surrounded by a moat, the château stands elegantly back from an imposing main courtyard, which is accessed via a majestic wrought iron gate from a long driveway lined with old trees. Built of tufa stone with slate roofs on an irregular three-storey plan, this complex comprises a main building framed by two pavilions flanked by corbelled turrets, extended to the west by a two-storey pleasure building and to the east by a three-storey pavilion. The latter was added in the second half of the 19th century. In the centre, in front of the main building, a remarkable tufa porch topped by a terrace surrounded by magnificent balusters forms the main entrance to the château. The neo-Gothic style, characterised by the exuberance of Renaissance splendour, was used extensively to decorate the building. The façades, doors, windows, pediments, pinnacles, dormer windows and turrets are adorned with finials, bracketed and drip lintels, clerestory friezes, crenellations, chimeras, coats of arms, etc... The interior style is also largely inspired by the somewhat fanciful architectural codes used in the first half of the 19th century. Ground floor: passing through the porch, one reaches the entrance from where an L-shaped gallery leads from the older main part of the château on one side to the more recent 19th century pavilion on the other. Opposite the entrance is a study, followed on its right by a series of rooms in a row, a dining room, a large recent kitchen with direct access to the courtyard of honour, a scullery, a boiler room and a storeroom, while following the gallery on its left one reaches a spacious, more classical lounge before arriving in the 19th century pavilion. This central section features beautiful polychrome cement tile, parquet and marble floors, panelled picture rails, beautifully crafted stained glass windows and wooden shutters, monumental tufa stone fireplaces, a marble fireplace and admirable painted and illuminated ceilings. The 19th-century pavilion houses a vast VIP lounge with a parquet floor, a wooden fireplace carved with sophisticated ornamentation, impressive stained glass windows and a ceiling with closoirs. Finally, a gallery connects the 19th-century pavilion to the main gallery via an attractive, light-filled glass roof overlooking the kitchen garden to the south.

The town is within easy reach of the freeway, and can be reached by train in less than 10 minutes to Nantes, and in 20 minutes to Nantes Atlantique airport. This elegant, fully restored 'Nantes folly' dates from the second third of the 18th century. The plans were drawn up by Jean-Baptiste Ceineray, the famous architect of the city of Nantes, after whom a quay is named. The high quality construction is in the classical style, topped by a large triangular pediment pierced by an oculus. The chaining and framing are in tufa stone, with the rest in rendered stone.

In the Pays de la Loire region, 15 minutes from Laval, on over 16 ha, a striking 18th century listed castle, fully restored. A long driveway, bordered by trees and crossing the parkland’s grasslands and woods, leads from the village to the property. Entrance gates open on to a very wide courtyard, partially surrounded by a dry moat and laid out in front of the chateau’s regular, elegant facade. The outbuildings, set out around the courtyard, comprise stables, a dovecote, pigsties, a barn, a small corner pavilion, a caretaker’s cottage and, lastly, a chapel. A central parterre, displaying its original design, takes up a large section of the courtyard in front of the chateau. A copse of very old trees stands to one side. A regular, terraced, back garden, reached via granite steps, looks down on to the rear of the chateau. The first castle dated from medieval times. In the 16th century, its status was raised to that of a “châtellenie” (an officially recognised castle and its land). All that remains of these eras are the dovecote, the chapel as well as the castle’s two pavilions. At the beginning of the 18th century, these two pavilions were connected by a vast building. The chateau, the outbuildings and parklands underwent major restoration works in 2010. A good number of these features are now protected with French Historic Monument listing (by order dated 13 March 1989): the chateau and the chapel; the dovecote facades and roofs; the perimeter wall with its moat and its support walls; the facades and roof of the little, 18th century corner pavilion; the garden with its fencing and its towers as well as the shelter over the central well; the wood and, lastly, the large alleyways in the parklands. Nowadays economic activities, notably linked to culture and events, are held by the current owners. But the potential of the buildings, not all actually in use, and the existing parklands which extend over a total of more than 16 hectares, make it possible to envisage other development possibilities, especially as the town of Laval is near and Paris and Rennes are within easy reach.
