Historic Manor House Listed as a Monument, Set Within an Unspoilt Landscaped Estate Location and accessibility Set within a peaceful and unspoilt rural environment, this distinguished historic property lies in the northern part of the Pays de la Loire region, in the department of Mayenne, close to the town of Sillé-le-Guillaume. The latter provides a full range of everyday amenities as well as a railway station offering regular services to Le Mans, reached in approximately twenty minutes. The location offers a rare balance between privacy and ease of access. Le Mans, with its TGV high-speed rail connections, is around 50 kilometres away. Alençon lies approximately 30 kilometres to the north, while Laval, which benefits from an airport, is less than an hour’s drive. An access to the motorway network can be reached in about thirty minutes, allowing travel to Paris in roughly two and a half hours. Two nearby villages offer essential local shops, including a bakery and grocery store, while the broader commercial and service infrastructure of Sillé-le-Guillaume ensures day-to-day convenience without compromising the rural character of the setting. ⸻ A discreet approach and a carefully structured natural setting The property is approached via a quiet country lane, followed by a private driveway that crosses open pastureland and gently rolling countryside. This leads to an historic entrance porch, which opens onto a spacious main courtyard forming the heart of the estate. The manor house is arranged around this courtyard, accompanied by several stone-built outbuildings positioned to the east and west, while an additional annex completes the enclosure. A secondary access road runs alongside the main residence and serves the outbuildings located to the rear of the property. Meadows extend on either side of the driveway and continue northwards into an established oak woodland, which then stretches westward. To the rear of the manor, a landscaped garden overlooks a gently flowing stream. Beyond this watercourse, two further meadows are accessed via a stone bridge, creating a continuous and harmonious estate layout. ⸻ The manor house – Architectural character Constructed of stone and rendered rubble masonry, the manor is partially built over ancient cellars. It rises over four levels, including two attic storeys, and presents a refined architectural composition typical of historic noble residences in the region. The slate roofs are pitched on two sides and punctuated by sculpted dormer windows that animate the elevations. Stone-mullioned windows rhythmically punctuate the façades, while a double-flight stone staircase leads to the principal entrance, enhancing the sense of arrival. At the rear, the main building is complemented by a series of distinctive architectural features: a square tower capped with a pavilion roof, a stair tower, and a round tower topped with a conical “pepper-pot” roof. A smaller adjoining structure, attached to the eastern side of the square tower, rises over two levels beneath a hipped slate roof. An independent cellar, accessible from the exterior, is built of small-cut sandstone masonry and is thought to date from the 11th or 12th centuries, attesting to the long history of the site. The façades and roofs of the manor, along with the low eastern wing, are officially listed as Historic Monuments. ⸻ Interior layout Ground floor The main entrance opens directly into a generous reception room combining living and dining areas. This central space is also accessible via a secondary entrance located within the stair tower, allowing for fluid circulation. From here, access is provided to a study, a kitchen housed within the square tower, and a corridor with guest facilities leading to the round tower. The lower level of this tower has been converted into a unique wellness area, comprising a bathroom, sauna, fireplace, and vaulted ceiling. The kitchen connects to an adjoining service room used as a pantry and boiler room. Throughout this level, the property retains a wealth of period features, including monumental granite fireplaces, stone window surrounds, and paneled wooden doors fitted with original ironwork, some crowned with carved stone decorations. Stained glass panels remain in the upper sections of the windows. Floors are largely laid with terracotta tiles, and ceilings feature exposed timber beams. ⸻ First floor A stone spiral staircase leads to the first floor, which includes a bedroom and a shower room located within the round tower, complete with a fireplace and separate toilet. A first-floor sitting room provides access to a second bedroom located in the square tower, followed by a corridor leading to an additional shower room, separate toilet facilities, and a third bedroom. This level is distinguished by large fireplaces with painted granite surrounds. One partition wall features a decorated beam adorned with painted cartouches depicting geometric motifs, floral arrangements, and stylised landscapes characteristic of 17th-century ornamentation. Terracotta floors and exposed beams continue throughout. ⸻ Second floor The staircase continues to the upper level, where a landing gives access to a bedroom in the round tower, featuring a painted fireplace, historic wood panelling, and a ceiling with radiating timber beams. A water point adjoins this room. A separate landing leads to two further bedrooms, a bathroom, independent toilet facilities, and a storage room. An additional bedroom, located in the square tower, benefits from a substantial stone and brick fireplace. A series of interconnected attics, totalling approximately 41 sqm, link the upper levels of the main house and both towers. Exposed roof timbers offer further potential for adaptation, subject to the necessary permissions. ⸻ Outbuildings Several stone-built outbuildings with slate roofs are arranged around the main courtyard. To the east, a two-storey former agricultural building offers approximately 240 sqm of floor space. Stone-paved floors and original feeding racks remain in place, reflecting its historic use. It is currently arranged as a workshop, with a large upper-level hall. To the west of the courtyard, a second outbuilding extends over roughly 220 sqm across two levels, including attic space, and is presently used for storage and as a granary. To the rear of the manor, a large open-sided barn supported by two stone pillars provides approximately 117 sqm of ground surface, with a ridge height of 8.75 metres. ⸻ Grounds and landscape The estate combines structured gardens, open pastureland, and mature woodland into a cohesive and serene environment. The access drive, lined with apple trees, leads to a grassed courtyard centred around a mature lime tree. Surrounding paths are planted with roses, trees, and shrubs of varied species. Below the manor, a medieval-inspired garden overlooks the stream. It is arranged into enclosed green “rooms” bordered by hornbeam hedges and enhanced by box and yew topiary. One section is dedicated to medicinal plants, accompanied by the gentle sound of running water. The meadows, reached via a stone bridge, extend to the north and south-west of the property. They are framed by hedgerows and winding watercourses, while the oak woodland borders the land to the north and continues westward, completing this rare and harmonious historic estate.

Located in the heart of the legendary D-Day Landing Beaches, this remarkable historic estate enjoys an exceptional position within walking distance of Juno Beach, one of the most significant sites of the Allied landings of June 6, 1944. The property is also just minutes from the renowned Canadian Memorial and Juno Beach Centre, making it a place of profound historical resonance, particularly meaningful for North American and Canadian families. Set in a charming seaside town on the celebrated Côte de Nacre, only 20 minutes from Caen and approximately 2.5 hours from Paris, the château offers a rare opportunity to live within one of the most iconic landscapes of World War II history, while enjoying the tranquility and beauty of the Normandy coast. Perched on a natural promontory overlooking its surroundings, this elegant 17th-century château, listed as a Historic Monument, stands as the final vestige of a former fortified site. Fully restored in the aftermath of World War II, the property offers approximately 528 sqm (5,683 sq ft) of living space, combining historic character with generous proportions and abundant natural light. Accessed via a graceful horseshoe staircase, the main level features an entrance hall, a kitchen with utility room, a magnificent dining room of approximately 60 sqm with fireplace, and two reception salons ideal for entertaining. The upper floors provide 10 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms, served by a handsome stone staircase. The château is distinguished by the harmony of its stone façades, the quality of its craftsmanship, and refined architectural details, including beautifully sculpted dormer windows. Inside, several decorative elements have been carefully recreated in keeping with the original spirit of the residence, including period mouldings, parquet flooring, and finely detailed woodwork. At garden level, vaulted cellars testify to the site’s ancient origins. A substantial outbuilding of approximately 390 sqm, with independent access, further enhances the property and offers significant potential for guest accommodation, events, or hospitality use. The fully enclosed park, landscaped with mature trees and extending over 1.16 hectares (2.86 acres), includes a well, a double garage, and an elegant gated entrance. A truly unique historic estate at the heart of the D-Day story — where heritage, remembrance, and coastal living come together in an extraordinary setting.

Located in a small municipality in the Indre department, the property is about 35 kilometers from Châteauroux, 30 kilometers from Vierzon, and 2 hours and 30 minutes from Paris. It includes a castle, a caretaker's house, farm buildings, and predominantly wooded land, complemented by a recreational park. The Castle was built in two parts, as the central part burned down in the 19th century. The main building is a quadrangular construction with two levels, each pierced by three bays. It is topped with a high hipped roof. The tower has three levels, the last of which is illuminated by a hanging dormer window, surmounted by a triangular pediment. On each side, but oriented differently, are two wings. Their roofs, in the Mansard style, combining tiles and slates, indicate that these parts are older. The exteriors were renovated a few years ago, as were some of the roofs. The castle rises on two main levels (excluding the attic). The ground floor includes the main living rooms (three lounges, a dining room), a technical area with the kitchen, pantry, laundry room, and a sleeping area with a bedroom and a bathroom. The first floor has 7 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. The bedrooms are comfortable and warm, mostly with a washbasin. A staircase provides access to the unconverted attic. Several dependencies complement this property. On the right of the Castle, a long building was constructed in the early 20th century, which now houses the caretaker's apartment, divided into a living room, kitchen, and three bedrooms on two levels. Then, a relaxation area with a large living room on the garden level and two bedrooms and a bathroom upstairs. Finally, there is an old saddlery. The land consists of a 28-hectare forest massif, mainly populated by cedars undergoing conversion to regular coppice, managed under a Simple Management Plan (PSG). The rest of the property includes a leisure park. EPC: F/E Price HAI: €695,000 (net seller price: €660,000 - fees of 5.3% including VAT borne by the purchaser).

Commanderie of Bure-les-Templiers (21) Adjacent to the parish church, the former Commandery of Bure-les-Templiers was the first House of the Order of the Temple in Burgundy during the Middle Ages. An exceptional heritage site steeped in history, it is a must-visit destination due to its most famous historical period, offering a multitude of potential cultural and event-related opportunities and the potential to become a renowned commercial tourism enterprise in the future.

Its spacious interior spaces, awaiting completion, include rooms of 30 m², 50 m², and some as large as 80 m², with ceiling heights sometimes reaching four meters, all arranged around a square courtyard.

Begun in 2006, the complete reconstruction of the Commanderie is still a viable option. In addition, the Commandery’s guesthouse or caretaker’s house at number 3, directly across from the entrance (the photograph in the ad was taken through one of its windows), is immediately availableeither for rent or to serve as a ticket office to welcome future visitors. This is because tourist traffic continues to grow every year in this area of the National Forest Park.

Generous volumes, substantial walls and a naturally subdued atmosphere express the full strength and character of medieval architecture. Around a closed courtyard are arranged former stables, now converted into a caretaker’s house, outbuildings, an ancient chapel, a dovecote, a woodshed and the remains of a former windmill, together composing an estate of rare architectural coherence. Saved during the French Revolution and fully restored in the 20th century by a Chief Architect of Historic Monuments, the château is listed on the Inventory of Historic Monuments, with partial classification. Set within just over three hectares of preserved grounds, the property combines privacy, proximity to amenities, access to golf within 25 minutes, and convenient connections to Paris and major international hubs.
