Castle Evron (53)

A Timeless Manor – Eastern Mayenne – 18.7 ha with Private Lake At the end of a tree-lined avenue of linden trees, through the woods, a rare and noble residence reveals itself. Here, time seems to stand still. This late 15th–early 16th century manor, listed in its entirety on the French Supplementary Inventory of Historic Monuments (ISMH), embodies the elegance of a preserved heritage, magnificently restored with extraordinary care. Behind its granite walls, 380 sqm of history unfold. Every stone, every beam, every monumental fireplace speaks of centuries past, while discreet, refined comforts allow for a modern and serene lifestyle. The Manor House The entrance is through the original granite spiral staircase tower. Inside, the rooms follow one another harmoniously: • a welcoming salon with a monumental fireplace, • a convivial kitchen, • a bedroom with terracotta tiles and exposed beams, • generous, light-filled bedrooms with carved fireplaces, • a unique bathroom still boasting a functional fireplace. Under the soaring roof, a breathtaking cathedral-like room showcases the original chestnut-beamed framework, with a private study and library nestled alongside. At the very top, a secret stairway carved into the stone leads to a former watch room, a unique reminder of the manor’s history of vigilance and protection. The Outbuildings The estate also offers remarkable outbuildings with vast potential: • To the east, a 370 sqm lodge, fully restored, now serving as an atelier and office. Its vast open-plan space, crowned by a Louis XIV marble fireplace, is bathed in natural light through wide glass openings. Heated by underfloor systems and finished with polished concrete floors, it could easily be transformed into a guest residence, gallery, or secondary home. • A stone barn shelters the boiler and wood reserves. • The former pigsties have been converted into a charming workshop opening onto a paved courtyard. • A large outbuilding with garage (for two cars) and storage areas, in excellent structural condition, offers significant scope for conversion. A Natural Haven The manor sits within a stunning 18.7-hectare estate of landscaped parkland and woodland. At its heart lies a 3.5-hectare lake, a living mirror reflecting the sky and the seasons, around which one can walk, contemplate, or simply enjoy the serenity of nature. A traditional vegetable garden, an orchard, and a charmingly designed parking area nestled in a hornbeam alley complete this idyllic setting. Location The property enjoys both seclusion and accessibility: • just 2 km from a small town with shops, services, and a primary school, • 4 km from the motorway, • 25 km from a TGV station, linking Paris in just 1h15. An additional 12 hectares of land are available upon request. ⸻ Highlights • An exceptional restoration, true to history and tradition. • A perfect balance between authenticity and contemporary comfort. • The beauty of the landscaped park with its 3.5 ha lake. • Immense potential in the restored outbuildings. • An ideal location: peaceful countryside, yet within easy reach of Paris. ⸻ A rare and timeless estate, where history, nature, and modern comfort come together to offer a unique art of living — ready for its next chapter.  Risk information available at: www.georisques.gouv.fr
