castle for sale Segré, France
Castle Segré (49)
A family chateau where a famous novelist lived, tucked away in the beautiful countryside of France’s Anjou province. The chateau stands in the shade of age-old trees that tower in English-style grounds. The edifice was recently restored. Its roofing, insulation, electricity, plumbing, windows and sanitation system were renovated. Its 40-metre-long facade stretches from north to south. The chateau has a main section with dual-aspect rooms. This section is framed between a pavilion at its north end and a second pavilion at its south end. Two towers also adjoin it. One of these towers houses a chapel. To the south and west of the dwelling, there are 6,500m² of tree-dotted grounds that are easy to maintain. The property was the family home of the famous French novelist Hervé Bazin. The current owner recreated the atmosphere of Bazin’s novel ‘Vipère au Poing’ here and opened the chateau to visitors. The property has been entirely adapted to comply with norms for France’s accreditation for a building to be open to the public. It now resembles a museum and can be used as a business.

Castle Craon (53)
A manor listed as a historical monument dating back to the 14th and 16th centuries with 20 hectares of grounds, nestled in France’s Mayenne department. In the middle of the estate, two driveways lined with oaks and linden trees lead to a rectangular court. Different buildings stand around it. Most of the facades are more or less south-facing. On the west side, there is the manor’s old section, which dates back to the 12th century. Its height was raised in the 14th century and a new section was built on its north side at a right angle to it with a square staircase tower linking the two parts. The two rectangular wings each have a ground floor, a first floor and a second floor in the roof space. They are made of rubble schist and sandstone with pointing of lime and ochre sand. Slate tiles cover the roofs. Brick chimney stacks rise up from these roofs. The elevations of the two sections were redesigned in the 16th century. They are punctuated with stone-mullioned cross windows set in sandstone surrounds. The large section has decorative features that date back to the Second French Renaissance and that are sculpted in tuffeau stone: a twin dormer, pilasters, a triangular pediment and a cornice with corbels. On the east side of the court, there is a large L-shaped outhouse. And there are two annexes in line with the manor’s old section, immediately south of it. To the north of the court, there is a former moat that runs along the northern elevation of the manor’s large section. The manor and its outbuildings are surrounded by a tree-dotted garden. Beyond this garden, there is farmland divided with hedges.
