This inspiring place, where terroirs and 'old stones' meet, offers an uninterrupted view over the surrounding countryside, bringing together all the ingredients that make a common place an exceptional place. This ingeniously simple former mill dating from 1759 was built of rubble stone, mainly limestone (sandstone and tufa), and topped with a conical dome that once supported the mill's blades. Covering an area of around 110 sqm, it is accessed by a wide doorway topped by an attractive arched tufa lintel. On the ground floor, a remarkable living-dining room with a round barrel vault gives way to a lounge area laid out under the conical vault of the mill.

The roof terrace is accessed via a charming mezzanine and a stone staircase in the work. The view from this terrace over the surrounding vineyards and one of the finest architectural jewels in Anjou's heritage is quite simply splendid. The Moulin Cavier vineyard covers just under 2,47 acres. Planted on clay-limestone soil that is particularly favourable to the development of the Cabernet Franc grape variety grown here, and benefiting from optimum sunshine, this estate is run by an independent winegrower who uses responsible viticulture methods. It produces around 4,000 bottles a year of a wine that is widely recognised by professionals in the trade, to the extent that some of these bottles are featured on the menus of renowned gourmet restaurants throughout France.

Ref. 4027: LORDLY MANOR 13th C. AT 20 KM FROM SAUMUR This magnificent manor house, whose origins date back to the 13th century, is ideally located in the heart of the Loire Anjou Touraine regional park, on the very site of an ancient Gallo-Roman site. Benefiting from a calm and pleasant environment, the property is located not far from the town of Angers, a major town in a department renowned for its rich historical heritage, and from the town of Saumur with its famous Cadre Noir. Close to the largest monastic city in Europe, the sublime Royal Abbey of Fontevraud, and the chateaux of the Loire, this seigniorial building seems perfectly adapted to both private and professional life objectives. The main shops are a 5 minute drive from the nearby town. It will also provide those who will stay at the manor house with an ideal location both for its proximity to the various activities of the region (golf courses, châteaux, museums, water sports, wine cellars, Cadre Noir de Saumur, etc.) and for the ease of access to the motorways leading to the major cities and professional areas of Paris, Le Mans, Angers, Saumur and Nantes. The origins of this property go back to the time of the presence of an ancient Abbey founded in the 12th century in the place of the current manor, which would explain the existence of an ancient chapel in this architectural complex. Occupied in turn by the French and then the English during the Hundred Years' War, the latter left the Abbey in the 14th century, leaving it in ruins. In the 15th century, the estate became a fortress with four square, crenellated towers, one of which still stands today. It was surrounded by a vast moat communicating with the pond and the nearby river. A drawbridge served it. Remains of this drawbridge still exist today. The property owes its present form to the restoration work launched in the 1960s by Mr Guy Desjonqueres. Built of tufa stone under slate roofs, this charming manor house, flanked by a square tower and two wings set at right angles to each other, is ostensibly reminiscent of the spirit of the seigneuries of the period whose singular heritage it bears. A south-facing façade and large openings in its central body give the interior spaces a luminous atmosphere. With a surface area of 430 sqm, its interior spaces are distributed as follows : Ground floor : a large hallway leading to a lounge on the right, giving access to the right wing of the manor house, which has 3 bedrooms on the same level with their own bathrooms. To the left is a large dining room with a fireplace, a kitchen and a large lounge with high ceilings, at the back of which is a majestic and imposing tufa fireplace of the most beautiful effect. First floor: To the right, a landing giving access to 4 bedrooms with bathrooms and a study. On the left, a sumptuous room fitted out in the former chapel, used as a library to this day. On the second floor and in the attic, additional volumes offer interesting potential for conversion as required. The property has several outbuildings as follows: An annex that can be used as a second home, near to which are the remains of a drawbridge dating from the 11th century. An old building with a stable and a barn, which could be used as a shed or a workshop. A large garage equipped with an automated and secure locking system. A good-sized awning that can be used as a wintering place for a vehicle or boat. Pretty English park planted with beautiful ornamental trees (cedars, oaks, willows, pines, ...), French garden, the whole constituting a remarkable ensemble of about 6.42 acres (2.6 ha).

An 18th century house and its outbuildings built on a hill overlooking the river Loire. A little road, going through the vines, comes to an end in front of the entrance gates and an outside parking area which is surrounded by hedges, keeping the house and its outbuildings out of sight. The house faces the garden with a barn on the east side and two other, partially converted outbuildings on the west side. The grounds are laid out over the hillside, dominating the Loire Valley. The west wall of the property, composed of dressed stone, still features traces of the old castle, demolished in 1830. The clear view reveals no nearby neighbours. A mule track composed of a flight of wide, shallow steps and a flintstone path leaves from the property, going down to the road below. A vegetable garden and an orchard are behind the barn. The grounds are partially enclosed by walls.
