Castle Segré-en-Anjou Bleu (49)

Nestled in the heart of Haut-Anjou, within the Loire Valley, this exceptional château—listed in the Inventaire Supplémentaire des Monuments Historiques—stands proudly at the center of a vast 71-hectare estate. Surrounded by wide, water-filled moats and reached by an elegant stone bridge, this is one of the finest examples of noble architecture in the Maine-et-Loire region. Located just 30 kilometers north of Angers, the château enjoys both tranquility and accessibility. Angers, the historic capital of Anjou, offers all amenities of a dynamic city: university, university hospital, shopping, and a TGV station with direct access to Paris in 1 hour 30 minutes. Renowned as France’s greenest city and consistently ranked among the best places to live, Angers truly embodies the celebrated “douceur angevine”—the gentle art of living of western France. The A11 motorway (25 km away) connects directly to Paris (330 km). A nearby market town, only 8 km from the estate, provides all daily conveniences. ⸻ A Renaissance Jewel in a Natural Setting The château, protected by its moats and accessed through an entrance châtelet flanked by two round towers, is reached via a majestic 300-meter avenue lined with plane trees. Beyond the gate, three successive courtyards unfold—an avant-cour, a cour d’honneur, and a lower courtyard—framed by beautiful period outbuildings. To the south lie the formal gardens and a fish pond. At the far end of the cour d’honneur, aligned with the châtelet, stands the main residential building. Originally constructed during the 15th and 16th centuries in the opulent style of the French Renaissance, it was later expanded during the 17th and 18th centuries with a principal wing and an L-shaped extension, tastefully refurbished around 1850. The result is a harmonious blend of Renaissance charm and refined domestic comfort—a rare balance between historical authenticity and modern elegance. ⸻ The Interiors The ground floor opens onto a grand 30 m² entrance hall located between the main wing and its return. To the left extends a magnificent suite of reception rooms: a dining room (49 m²), a grand salon (58 m²), a Renaissance drawing room (57 m²), a smaller sitting room (25 m²) fitted into the former guard room, a library (14 m²), a pantry (5 m²), and a cloakroom with WC (10 m²). To the right are a study (18 m²), a large family kitchen (53 m²), a secondary kitchen (18 m²), a pantry (9 m²), and several utility and service rooms. The entrance also gives access to a boiler room, wood store, and additional WCs. The first floor, reached by a grand stone staircase and a charming wooden spiral stair in the Renaissance tower, comprises nine bedrooms (ranging from 19 to 27 m²), two dressing rooms (9 and 18 m²), five bathrooms, four shower rooms (one with sauna), and two WCs with washbasins. Attics extend over the entire building. The L-shaped wing includes additional living space over three levels: a vast 150 m² games room, a home cinema with 22 seats and adjoining kitchen, a large office, seven bedrooms, six shower rooms, and seven WCs. The reception rooms are beautifully appointed with oak parquet, terracotta tiles, or stone flagstones, enhanced by wood paneling, decorative trumeaux, marble or stone fireplaces, and painted beamed ceilings. The generous volumes—reaching up to 3.7 meters in height—create an atmosphere of both grandeur and warmth. ⸻ Historic Outbuildings and Dependencies Over the centuries, the château has remained a self-sufficient estate, and it still retains its complete range of service buildings, arranged harmoniously within the moat’s enclosure. A. The Entrance Châtelet (16th century) A masterpiece of defensive architecture, it features two pepperpot towers and two gateways—a carriage entrance and a pedestrian door once fitted with a portcullis and drawbridge. Above the main gate, a statue of a goddess bears the Latin motto “Vincit Omnia Pallas” (“Pallas conquers all”), and the crest above displays a cross pattée in silver on a sable field. B. South of the châtelet, an annex houses a three-room apartment and former stables with tack room. C. To the north and west, a series of L-shaped outbuildings—also flanked by two towers—include: – a large two-room workshop (approx. 150 m²) ideal for receptions or seminars, – various barns and storage rooms, a bread oven, and a dovecote, – a caretaker’s house with five rooms and central gas heating. D. The Chapel of Saint-Sébastien, founded in 1526 and altered in the 19th century, stands near the main house. It retains its original decorative elements and includes a sacristy. E. Near the north-west gate, the former pigsties still evoke the estate’s rural past. F. Outside the moat enclosure, the estate includes: – a second caretaker’s house with living room, two bedrooms, and bathroom, – kennels, – and a small stone pavilion built on an island bordering the river. ⸻ The Estate Grounds The château stands majestically at the center of its single-block domain, approached by a grand 300-meter avenue of plane trees running east to west. The estate covers 71 hectares (176 acres) of beautifully arranged land, comprising: – 47 hectares of meadows and pastures, – 12 hectares of woodland (oak, pine, and poplar), – and a 0.9-hectare pond. To the north, the property is bordered for nearly one kilometer by a picturesque river, while several paths radiate from the château through the surrounding parkland. ⸻ Historical Protection and Tax Benefits As a result, the property qualifies for the highly advantageous French Monuments Historiques tax regime, offering significant fiscal benefits to owners engaged in preservation and restoration—combining heritage stewardship with intelligent investment. ⸻ In Summary This château stands among the grandest and most distinguished in Haut-Anjou. It harmoniously unites the elegance of Renaissance architecture, the grandeur of a noble estate, and the comfort of a refined family residence. Rich in history yet welcoming in spirit, the property offers an exceptional lifestyle just 35 minutes from Angers—a true jewel of French heritage where stone, water, and nature have coexisted in perfect harmony for over five centuries.

A gateway flanked by a caretaker's house and a small annex gives onto a drive that leads to the château and its grounds.

It stands on the site of an earlier house. It is built of sandstone and granite rubble stone under a slate roof and has around 480 m² of floor area on four levels. Its neo-Gothic architecture is a composition of differentiated massing and rooflines. Corner turrets are capped with pepperpot roofs, chimney stacks stand in groups, and dormers have Gothic pediments. A cross and a weathervane top a small bell-turret. The château stands on slightly higher ground above the Mayenne, on an east-west axis, and overlooks the grounds, which slope down to the river.

Castle Le Loroux-Bottereau (44)

Tucked into the gentle hills of the Nantes vineyards, this 17th-century manor is a living tapestry of history and enchantment. The estate unfolds across 4.17 hectares of meticulously tended parkland, where the air carries the scent of earth and blossoms, and the only soundtrack is the gentle murmur of a spring-fed pond—once a humble lavoir—fed by an eternal spring. Here, time slows, and the world feels both timeless and tenderly alive. Nestled in the heart of the Loire-Atlantique, a region famed for its Muscadet wines and Vendée War history, this property offers the perfect blend of rural seclusion and urban convenience. Just 20km from Nantes, a vibrant city with TGV rail links to Paris and an international airport, it’s an ideal base for exploring the Pays de la Loire region.A House That Wears Its History Like a Crown This is no ordinary manor. It is a survivor, its very walls telling the tale of resilience and reinvention. The fire that swept through during the Vendée Wars left its mark in the most poetic way—an asymmetrical silhouette that gives the house its soul-stirring character. Walk through its grand entrance, and you’re stepping into a world where every exposed beam, every ancient fireplace, and every terracotta tile has a story to share. The 397m² of living space is arranged across three floors, offering a symphony of rooms designed for both grandeur and intimacy. The grand salon, with its monumental fireplace, is a stage for evenings of wine and laughter, while the formal dining room evokes the elegance of lavish banquets. The separate kitchen, a modern addition, blends seamlessly with the historic fabric, offering the comforts of today without compromising the home’s timeless charm. Upstairs, eight bedrooms promise restful retreats, each with its own personality. Exposed beams crisscross ceilings, and ancient terracotta tiles whisper underfoot, their worn surfaces bearing the patina of centuries. The cellar, cool and vast, waits patiently to cradle wines, preserves, or the simple treasures of everyday life.

Castle Chantonnay (85)

Hidden from view, in a green setting of more than 2.5 hectares, this sumptuous exceptional property elegantly combines the refinement of a characterful château with the authenticity of a preserved estate. It is perfectly suited to a tourist activity, with its professional kitchen, guest rooms, and two gîtes. Built around 1850, this château develops a harmonious square plan, articulated around a raised central body and two discreet wings on the garden level. The assertive verticality of the building—emphasized by four levels of windows, tall chimney stacks, and corbelled turrets known as pepperpots—gives it an imposing and perfectly balanced silhouette. Entrance to the premises is via a granite staircase leading to a sumptuous 40 m² hall. The ceiling height of 4.50 meters gives the whole a feeling of spaciousness and nobility. In the left wing, three reception rooms of 40 m², 45 m² and 22 m² follow one another, ideal for welcoming customers in a friendly atmosphere. The right wing houses the technical areas: a 38 m² professional kitchen, an office, cold rooms as well as bathrooms accessible to people with reduced mobility, all served by a corridor with refined woodwork. A superb curved staircase, adorned with an original wrought iron banister, leads to the upper floors. A second service staircase allows discreet circulation. The first floor houses four bedrooms, each with its own private shower room and toilet. Solid oak parquet floors contribute to the cozy and warm atmosphere. The second floor repeats this configuration, with four additional suites, just as elegant and comfortable. The top level offers a partially converted attic comprising two bedrooms, a bathroom and a kitchenette. The rest of the floor offers great potential for additional development. In the basement, an exceptional cellar: across the entire castle grounds, a long central corridor leads to nine superb vaulted rooms, entirely paved in stone, with independent exits. A space with multiple uses, combining character and functionality. The outbuildings consist of an orangery and a stable. The orangery is a beautiful building requiring restoration, made of stone and brick and roofed in slate. Its dimensions: 24 meters long and 11 meters wide. A large attic is possible. T he stable, itself, dates from 1880, made of rendered stone, comprising a central body framed by two wings. This building also requires restoration work. Its dimensions: 26 meters long and 13 meters wide. This building offers the possibility of having attics throughout. The park covers an area of approximately 2.5 hectares, partly enclosed by walls. The park has large trees of various species. There are notably two immense sequoias. Separated from the château and surrounded by ancient stone walls, two restored cottages have been built. The first cottage sleeps 6, and the second 4. A 5x10m swimming pool provides a refreshing dip.

Listed castle Le Lion-d'Angers (49)

Réf.4739 : Renaissance chateau listed as a Historic Monument and 83 acres for sale in Anjou In Anjou, built in the countryside on the outskirts of a small village, stands this magnificent Renaissance property. A large avenue of lime trees leads to the old carriage entrance that precedes the main courtyard. The property is located in the north of Maine-et-Loire, in a preserved rural area, away from major traffic flows and easily accessible. The village is set in a landscape of hedgerows and farmland. The neighbouring towns provide everyday amenities. Angers, 35 km away, is within easy reach, offering a direct link to Paris (A11 motorway and TGV station for Paris in 1 hour 25 minutes). The whole property offers a discreet, stable and rural setting, characteristic of the Anjou region. Angers (population 160.000) is just 15 minutes away by car. Angers is the capital of the Anjou region, with all the shops and services you need (university hospital, universities, TGV train station providing a 1h30 hour link to Paris). The town centre is magnificent, with its narrow streets, the imposing silhouette of its 13th-century castle, and the parks and gardens in the heart of the town. The town has also been awarded the title of France's top green town and is a great place to live. In other words: the gentleness of Anjou. It is one of the smallest Renaissance-style chateau in France. Built of schist and tuffeau stone and covered with slate, it faces south/north. It has a total surface area of 800 sqm spread over three levels of approximately 230 sqm each, extended by three half-floors in the east wing. The upper floors are accessed via an impressive straight stone staircase, supported by buttress walls and covered with brick vaults with white stone coffers, as well as a wooden spiral staircase. The façades feature large windows with crossbars and mullions. The chateau's roofs are very varied, illustrating the architectural richness of the building: pavilion, pepperpot and imperial. One enters the residence through a low semi-circular door with pilasters: - On the ground floor: guard room (67 sqm, ceiling height: 3.63 m), library (33 sqm), dining room (38 sqm), kitchen (36 sqm), utility room (7.6 sqm), toilet and washbasin; On the mezzanine floor: bedroom (42 sqm) and bathroom (8 sqm). - Upstairs: living room with painted wood panelling (72 sqm, ceiling height 3.51 m), 3 bedrooms (35, 28, 18 sqm), one with en-suite bathroom, another with dressing room, office (24 sqm), bathroom and shower room (11 sqm), WC and dressing room (9 sqm); On the mezzanine floor: bedroom (42 sqm), bathroom/shower room and toilet (8.5 sqm), dressing room in the tower. - On the second floor: billiard room (29 sqm), upstairs lounge (27 sqm), 7 bedrooms (from 11 to 28 sqm), 1 shower room; On the mezzanine floor: bedroom (44 sqm), bathroom/shower room and WC (8 sqm), dressing room in the tower. Attic above, vaulted cellar including the boiler room under the west wing and semi-underground cellar under the east wing. The chateau is sold furnished; the complete list is to be determined with the owner. The quality of the building's exterior architecture is exceptional. The interior lives up to this impression with architectural features characteristic of large country houses. To name but a few, there is the beautiful straight staircase with open risers, the monumental fireplaces, the mullioned and transom windows, and the consistent and skilful use of high-quality materials (terracotta, wood panelling, cut stone for the ornamentation, etc.). The two painted rooms upstairs are admirable. The paintings were created in 1648 for the wedding of a former owner of the château: The first includes classical motifs such as foliage, crowned busts of Roman emperors, but also still lifes of flowers and fruit, landscapes of Anjou, etc. The second is known as the "chambre des Amours" (chamber of love) because of the motifs with which it is decorated. This building, on a human scale, has all the features of a large Renaissance château. Without excessive decoration or extravagance, it authentically embodies a large Anjou residence, with no lack of architectural richness. It is an extension in Haut-Anjou of the prestigious splendour of the Châteaux of the Loire. OUTBUILDINGS : They include a U-shaped courtyard comprising: - A 4-room building with 2 woodsheds and 2 chicken coops; - At right angles: a barn, a large garage (125 sqm), a 2-room caretaker's lodge (70 sqm), electric heating, in need of refurbishment; attics above; - At right angles: a dilapidated 70 sqm dwelling, then the old stables (saddle room and 6 stalls); attic above.

Castle Fresnay-sur-Sarthe (72)

Réf. 4801: a beautiful château near Alençon, 40 km from Le Mans. Located on the edge of the famous Alpes Mancelles, the property is set in unspoilt countryside, yet remains just a few kilometres from a prefecture town. In the immediate vicinity of Fresnay-sur-Sarthe, a ‘small town of character’ that will charm you with its fortified town built on a rocky promontory offering an exceptional view over the meandering Sarthe river, this property also offers easy access to the motorway and the SNCF rail network. Once past the charming entrance gate, you cross the grounds to reach the attractive 19th-century castle, built of rendered stone and topped with a slate roof. Symmetrical on one side, with a central section flanked by two corner turrets and an elegant canopy at its centre, it is not symmetrical on the other, as the façade features a rectangular tower, likely a remnant of the original château, on which a 16th-century architectural detail can be seen. An elegant gallery has also been added to the façade, providing easy access to the ground floor and a welcoming entrance. With a living area of 446sqm, it comprises: On the ground floor: a gallery with attractive cabochon flooring (21 sqm) leading to a central, open-plan dining room with parquet flooring and a marble fireplace (30 sqm), the start of the staircase, and a large living room with parquet flooring and three-sided views (32,5 sqm) through which one enters a bright study (14,45 sqm) situated in a tower. Behind the staircase, a small utility room used as a kitchen opens onto the former kitchen with its monumental granite fireplace set on terracotta tiles (30,5 sqm), which leads to a small room in a tower, a laundry room, a shower room, as well as a service entrance and a scullery. On the first floor, a long corridor leads to five bedrooms, one of which is a connecting room (ranging from 14 sqm to 32 sqm), a bathroom and a shower room. Above, the same corridor leads to two bedrooms, four rooms requiring refurbishment and a terrace. Partial basement Outbuildings : At the entrance to the property stands an elegant outbuilding constructed of rendered stone with brick detailing and a recently installed slate roof. It houses a double garage, stables with four stalls, a tack room, a feed store, and a former caretaker’s flat comprising, on the ground floor, a living room and kitchen area, a bathroom, and upstairs, two bedrooms, one of which has a bath and washbasin, as well as an additional room and access to the loft. A beautiful tower, 6.75 m in diameter over two levels, comprises one room per level. A small turret containing old latrines adjoins it. Vaulted cellar beneath the terrace.

Castle Aizenay (85)

Just 25 minutes from the Vendée coast, this magnificent fully renovated 17th-century château reveals itself in the heart of a superb wooded park of about 16 hectares. Rare in the area, this property offers a privileged setting, imbued with elegance, calm, and authenticity. The château has beautiful reception rooms with a remarkable entrance, a double dining room, a small lounge, a vast reception room, sanitary facilities, a professional kitchen, and a dishwashing room. On the night side, 22 bedrooms each benefit from their own bathroom and toilet. The bedrooms have retained the charm of the past and modern comfort. Bright, the rooms open naturally onto the terrace and the park. As an heir to a centuries-old history, the Château has preserved many testimonies of its past: moldings, old parquet floors, fireplaces, sculptures, and high ceilings with decorative coffering punctuate the interiors. These period elements, combined with the generous volumes of the home, give it a rare elegance and an authentic atmosphere. The property also includes several outbuildings: a private house and a gîte, each with a living room and two bedrooms, as well as a second house with four bedrooms, a barn, and a workshop. The outdoors offer an exceptional environment with an outdoor swimming pool, tennis court, and vast wooded park, conducive to relaxation and well-being. By its character, its volumes, and its location, this property presents a rare opportunity for a charming or luxury hotel project, a gourmet restaurant, a guest house, or a reception venue. A unique place where heritage, nature, and the art of living meet near the Vendée coastline.This description has been automatically translated from French.
