A house with outbuildings and 5 5 hectares of meadows and woods, 20 minutes from the city of Tours. From the village, a road runs through a forest to a small valley where a river flows. The property lies in a commanding position. It is mainly made up of meadows and woods that stretch over gentle slopes on each side of the valley. A driveway, hidden behind trees, takes you to a gate, which leads into a large, gravelled space behind the house where vehicles can be parked. The old dwelling has a ground floor and a first floor. It is made of rubble stone coated with rendering and it is crowned with a gabled slate roof. An extension, built in 2004, and a double garage enlarge the house. In the grounds, which are dotted with oaks, cedars and linden trees, shrubs and rose bushes punctuate vast lawns, through which drives lead up to a former stable and a small outbuilding. At the front, a terrace and a covered swimming pool face south. They offer an endless view of the lush countryside that surrounds the property. On one side, the grounds stretch to the edge of woods, across meadows, and to an agricultural storage building lower down. On the other side, meadows slope down to a stream lined with trees then slope up over the opposite side of the valley. Lastly, a plot of woods extends the property to 5.5 hectares.
