Ref.4897 : Large noble townhouse with gites for sale in Loire Valley.
Located in a quiet street a short walk from the market square and an abundance of restaurants in the very popular Loire Valley town of Chinon. Rich in history and well known for its wine Chinon enjoys easy access to the four corners of France (and beyond to the rest of Europe) thanks to its central location and excellent network of Autoroutes. This large multi-residence property is ideally suited to a tourist or large family project in a proven popular location.
In keeping with the architecture and style of the period, the main entrance is via the upper terrace.
On the ground floor: the entrance hall leads to the staircase taking to the upper floors and the garden level. The library (25 sqm) features parquet flooring, a marble fireplace and double glazed windows overlooking the garden; the living room (38 sqm), also with parquet flooring, enjoys light from two sides. An internal passageway provides access to the secondary dwelling (see the ‘Outbuildings’ section)
On the garden level: a second entrance, accessible from the gravel courtyard, leads to a vaulted kitchen with tuffeau stone walls, a utility room and a toilet. A corridor leads to a 15 sqm bedroom with windows on two sides, featuring an en-suite shower room and a toilet. On the other side: a 32 sqm dining room, with a ceiling height of 3.60 m, enjoys a view of the garden. A 36 sqm games room, situated above a vaulted wine cellar, also houses the boiler and connects to the second house. A wooden staircase leads to the ground floor.
On the first floor: a landing, featuring a stained-glass window and a corridor leading to three bedrooms (23 sqm, 22 sqm and 13 sqm), as well as a separate bathroom, a shower room and a toilet.
On the second floor: formerly reserved for domestic staff, this level has been converted into three bedrooms (21 sqm, 17 sqm and 20 sqm), complemented by a shower room, a walk-in shower, a toilet and a separate WC.
The property has a total living area of approximately 530 sqm.
Adjoining the main house is a second dwelling comprising, on the ground floor: a 18 sqm living room, as well as a 16 sqm room (currently used as a workshop but which could be converted into a bathroom). On the first floor: a 26 sqm double-aspect bedroom, a bathroom and a kitchenette. This property also has a separate entrance leading onto the lane further up the hill.
Guest house: opposite the main house, on the other side of the upper terrace, is the guest house, comprising on the ground floor: a 22 sqm double-aspect living/dining room with a marble fireplace, an 8 sqm kitchen, a shower room and a toilet. Upstairs, there are two bedrooms (14 sqm and 16 sqm). This accommodation has a private terrace opening onto the kitchen, with direct access to the lane at the front.
The outbuildings also comprise: a garage with space for two cars, a tower – likely a former dovecote –, a former wash house now used as a bicycle storage room, and a stable converted into a spacious self-contained studio comprising a 21 sqm living area with sleeping space, a shower room and a separate toilet.
The property is set on a 3,154 m² plot comprising a walled garden with trees, incorporating a remnant of the town’s ancient ramparts. It opens onto the street via an electric gate. From the upper terrace, the view overlooks the landscaped grounds, laid out in a series of terraces.
A gravel terrace, accessible directly from the lower entrance hall and the kitchen, provides the ideal setting for al fresco dining and receptions. The garden offers a succession of spaces perfect for relaxation, with numerous shaded spots beneath a variety of trees and shrubs: pear, apple, fig trees, blackthorn, hazel (with the occasional visit from squirrels), lime trees, rose bushes, the ‘grafted’ Sophora, the hundred-year-old yew, the cedar, the large maple with a 14-metre span…, beautiful lawns and flowerbeds.
A gate, situated between the detached studio and the garages, opens onto the street, providing easy access to the centre of Chinon from this level of the garden.
