A priory from the 15th and 18th centuries with a landscaped garden and a 15th-century church listed as a historical monument, nestled in a village near the city of Angers. Two tuffeau stone pillars and a wrought-iron gate mark the property’s entrance. From there, a drive runs past a former parish church listed as a historical monument and leads up to the dwelling. You then see a north-facing facade with an adjoining tower. It is the facade of a former priory dating back the 15th century. Each of its gable ends is flanked with a pavilion that has a ground floor and a first floor and is crowned with a three-slope roof. The pavilion on the east side is extended with a wing through which a covered carriage entrance runs. The pavilion on the west side is extended with a wing that lies at a right angle to the dwelling’s rear elevation. These two sections house the annexes: former cowsheds, a workshop, a stable and a bakehouse. Slate roofs with dormers crown all the buildings. The dwelling’s northern elevation looks out at the garden that extends around the church. This garden is made up of lawns and trees. The southern elevation faces a formal garden. An ornamental pond lies in the middle of it. A secondary entrance takes you onto a drive that leads straight to a court edged with an outbuilding on one side and a barn on the other.
