A magnificent property with its own private garden, near the castle in the historic centre of Ancenis. The building is located on one of the most beautiful squares in the historic centre of Ancenis. At the foot of the covered market, just a few hundred metres from the castle and the banks of the River Loire, it overlooks a small square where a market is held several times a week. It is complemented by a vast walled garden and two garages that open onto the street to the back. There is also a pedestrian gate. The building was constructed in around 1850 as a private mansion for the use of a single occupant and their staff. It was subsequently converted into an apartment block, made up of four flats, two of which are still occupied. The whole property is in need of restoration. Rectangular in shape, it has three storeys and four rows of windows. It has a basement level covering the entire surface area, a raised ground floor, a first floor and an attic floor. It is built on a granite base, with an ashlar facade enhanced by a tufa stone bossage. The Mansard-style roof, covered in pebbled slate, features dormer windows, the central two of which are rusticated and topped with a broken pediment with interior scrolls. The first floor has a long balcony and the French windows are surmounted by mascarons or acanthus leaf brackets. The windows are all fitted with metal or wooden shutters and protected by wrought iron railings. The basement has cellars with an earthen floor. The ground floor has two self-contained flats. Each has its own entrance at either end of the building. There is just one flat on the first floor. The second floor has a flat and attic.
