Listed castle Angers (49)

Ref.4798 : Medieval castle and 16th-C. noble dwelling, listed as a Historic Monument, with outbuildings and 8.22 acres in Anjou Set in a peaceful setting in the heart of the Layon Valley, this remarkable medieval castle forms part of a landscape typical of southern Anjou, where vineyards and valleys intertwine. Situated between the old village and the River Layon, it enjoys a location that is both central and secluded, reflecting the pivotal role it once played in the local community. Close to the business hubs of Angers and Cholet, and within easy reach of Saumur, the property offers excellent accessibility whilst retaining the charm of a preserved rural setting. The Layon Valley, renowned for its landscapes and vineyards, offers a sought-after lifestyle, ideal for outdoor activities and exploring the heritage of the Anjou region. The numerous surrounding vineyards contribute to the region’s economic and cultural vitality, whilst the paths and roads criss-crossing the hillsides invite you to go for a stroll. A few shops and services are within walking distance (bar-restaurant, nurses’ practice, winegrowers), and the nearest amenities are located about ten minutes away in a small neighbouring town. The property now offers an interesting heritage base, suitable for a residential or development project, in an area appreciated for its relaxed lifestyle and authenticity.

The main tower was built on a four-storey plan with a slate roof and features spacious rooms whose opulent furnishings for the time suggest that powerful lords once resided here.

Castle Bournezeau (85)

Ref.4520 : Elegant Château with outbuildings for receptions in the Vendée department Situated in the heart of the Vendée, just 15 minutes from La Roche-sur-Yon and around fifty kilometres from the beaches of the Atlantic coast, the château we are offering is located in a commune that enjoys an ideal geographical location, combining rural tranquillity with accessibility. All the local shops are in the village. The forest of La Chaize, the banks of the River Yon and the many hiking trails make it easy to take full advantage of the natural beauty of the Vendée. The village and surrounding area are packed with historic sites that bear witness to the history of the Vendée. These include the 12th-century church of Saint-Jacques and a number of beautiful old houses offering authentic charm. A few kilometres away is Trizay Abbey, a remarkable site steeped in history. The four-storey château is of great elegance. The south-west façade is a superb example of a reinterpretation of the Louis XIII style that was in vogue in the Vendée region around 1850. Garlands of flowers, blind oculi and curvilinear pediments make for a highly successful 17th-century pastiche. Two male and two female masks on the two towers add to the finesse of the decoration. The facade facing the park is much more restrained, although its scrolled dormer keeps the style consistent. Inside, the château has been renovated using quality materials over a surface area of 600 sqm (around 200 sqm per floor). The former owner worked passionately for 7 years to restore this superb residence to its former glory. An interior designer has created a harmonious whole. The rooms are light and airy, with high ceilings. The herringbone parquet flooring is original. The woodwork, mouldings and rosettes give the property a noble character. On the ground floor, after climbing the steps to the porch, you enter the hall, which features an admirable semi-circular suspended staircase. The walls and ceiling are decorated with elaborate woodwork. To the right is a vast lounge. To the left is the dining room. Continuing down the hall, on the right is a very beautiful, spacious and luminous fitted kitchen, with an original vegetable garden. To the left is a large bedroom and bathroom. Another bedroom completes the ground floor. On the first floor, a vast landing leads to 4 large, light and airy bedrooms and 4 shower rooms and a small bedroom. On the second floor, the landing, lit by a glass roof, leads to two bedrooms and a large dormitory. Several other rooms can also be converted into bedrooms. A bathroom can also be fitted (arrivals). In the basement, covering the entire surface area of the château, the cellar is impressive in its size. A central corridor separates several technical rooms, including a magnificent wine cellar, ideal for tastings. Outbuildings : - An outbuilding was renovated into a reception room 2 years ago. The surface area is approximately 160 sqm. The work was carried out by an architect. The decor is tasteful and contemporary. Large windows look out over the park and the front of the château. You enter a bar area with a counter. On the right is the catering area and sanitary facilities. To the left is the large dining room, which can accommodate 100 people standing and 40 seated. - A small pavilion in the park The park covers more than 19 acres (8 hectares) and is divided into different areas. Opposite the château, around a bend in a path lined with carefully pruned cypress trees, you'll discover a formal garden with symmetrical flowerbeds and topiary, and an elegant fountain in the centre. Further on, beneath the majestic foliage of centuries-old trees - gnarled oaks, imposing cedars and purple beeches - stretches a vast pond, a tranquil mirror reflecting the sky in a thousand shades. Sheltered from view, a statue of the Blessed Virgin keeps watch, frozen in her benevolent posture, offering walkers a moment of contemplation in the heart of this tamed nature. The park undergoes a metamorphosis through the seasons: a golden glow in autumn, a powdery coat in winter, a floral symphony in spring and an ocean of greenery in summer.
