A Neo-Gothic chateau, listed as a Historical Monument & sold furnished, with its outbuildings & grounds, on nearly 15 ha, 15 km from Le Mans. Edified on the slope of a hill, Le Mans extends to the north of the property, past the woods, while behind tall pillars, the property is accessible via a tarmac driveway bordered by tall trees and flanked by an entrance pavilion, which houses the caretaker’s residence. Advancing through the landscaped grounds provides views, on one side, of the chateau’s symmetrical northern façade, whereas, arriving at the top of the hill, several outbuildings constructed in the 19th century can be seen set back from the chateau. They specifically include the orangery, today converted into a guesthouse, which faces the chateau’s southern façade on the other side of the courtyard, while, to the west, at a distance from the buildings -- on the site of the rose garden and its pools as shown in Edouard André's original plans -- a swimming pool has been added. As for the grassy grounds, they lead to a pond below, which reflects the tall trees’ foliage, whereas, following on from there, the walls of the former vegetable garden, where a tennis court has been created, close the property off from the outside. The chateau, listed as a regional Historical Monument, was edified in 1844 in a Neo-Gothic style, while its plaster-coated exteriors, mostly symmetrical and rather distinct to the north and south, are topped with pedimented dormers decorated with moulded stone and, specifically, coats of arms. With slate roofs, punctuated with finials, the chateau's interiors feature 18th-century inspired décor, which is, in turn, supplemented with Art Deco details. In addition, the grounds, designed in 1877, are also listed as a national Historical Monument, whereas their landscaped composition, emblematic of the passion for botany in the 19th century, is the result of the close collaboration between an industrialist from Sarthe and Edouard André, an internationally renowned landscape architect, who designed Paris’s Buttes-Chaumont Park.

Built in its first form in 1620, then remodeled in the 18th and 19th centuries to give it its elegant current silhouette, the château is discovered at the end of a small dead-end country road, sheltered from all traffic. The arrival is already an experience: the towering woods, the light filtered through the tall trees, the presence of a river running along the property for nearly 400 meters, compose a rare, almost untouched natural decor. The château stands at the heart of this preserved landscape, surrounded by 4 hectares 26 ares of mixed woods and meadows. The whole forms a coherent, lively estate, where each element—the oratory, the old greenhouse, the well, the kennel, the workshop, the stables with their original stalls and boxes—tells a deeply rooted family and rural story. An authentic and warm family home, with a living area of about 386 m² over two levels, the château offers generous volumes and an ideal layout for a family. The reception rooms, the library, as well as the bedrooms, have retained their original woodwork, precious witnesses to the soul of the place. The windows, recently replaced by double-glazed wooden frames, provide comfort and durability without altering the heritage aesthetic. Upstairs, a large attic of 214 m², formerly used as a dormitory during large family gatherings, offers remarkable development potential. Two independent houses of 73 m² and 86 m², to be renovated, complete the ensemble. They allow for multiple uses: family reception, lodgings, caretaker accommodation, artists' workshops? The park, dotted with lime trees, oaks, firs, and ancient trees, forms a natural setting of great softness. The river, the woods, the meadows, and the unobstructed views give this place an elegant retreat atmosphere, both intimate and open to nature. While the estate is well-maintained and perfectly kept, the château and outbuildings require some renovation work today, leaving future owners the freedom to continue the history of the place according to their vision. A rare, authentic, preserved heritage, it is a family home, lively, warm, and deeply rooted in its territory. Its history, its natural environment, its preserved ancient elements, and its potential for evolution make it a rare property, both heritage-oriented and deeply human.
