Property Saumur (49)

Ref.4203: Atypical wine-producing property for sale in Anjou, with an old cavier mill. We're just a stone's throw from Saumur in the heart of the Loire Anjou Touraine Regional Nature Park, close to a small historic Angevin town that we owe to Foulques Nera, a famous lord of the Middle Ages and Count of Anjou in the 10th and 11th centuries, who turned it into a stronghold by building dungeons and fiefs. It is here, in this setting of splendid residences and land covered with vines as far as the eye can see, that this charming 18th century windmill has been completely restored. Less than 5 minutes away, you'll find a host of shops and amenities (shops, post office, train, services, etc.). Not far away, the major towns of Saumur (18 minutes) and Doué la Fontaine (13 minutes) offer all amenities as well as a wide range of tourist, cultural and sporting activities. 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. With several openings, it diffuses a pleasant light reverberated by the natural light of the tufa stone. This main room leads on either side to a room that has been converted into a bedroom, another with a tufa fireplace serving as a small sitting room or boudoir, which can also be used as a bedroom, and then a kitchen and shower room, all of which provide an intimate setting. 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.

Property Saumur (49)

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.

Property Saumur (49)

In a small historic town in Anjou, an 18th-century townhouse with a garden. The townhouse - specifically its entrance door, garage, and boiler room - faces a square in the city center landscaped with rose bushes and topiaries. Numerous shops, including pharmacies, bakeries, and banks, among others, can be found in this part of town. At the back, the house opens onto a terrace paved with ancient cobblestones and a lawn, enclosed by walls, featuring a small outbuilding, a well, and a small corner pavilion made of tuffeau stone. Built with lime plastered stone and rubble, the residence spans one level above the ground floor and consists of three sections that have been reconfigured over the centuries. The central section, with a single bay, is slightly advanced compared to the lateral sections. On the street side, the ground floor and the upper floor topped with an attic and a slate roof, rise above a basement that houses the garage, the boiler room, and a cellar. The front facade, made of stone, is coated with a beige-colored plaster and adorned with cornerstones, molded cornices and window sills, sculpted window frames, an entrance, a garage door, straight windows on the upper floor, arched windows on the attic, and louvered shutters. The rear facade of the central section is made of tuffeau stone, coated with an orange-ocher plaster, with matching window frames, cornerstones, cornices, and dormer windows. This facade has recently been restored. The gable roofs, covered in slate, are adorned with dormer windows, each topped with a triangular pediment in the two sections on the left, featuring frames sculpted in stone in the left section and a more understated design in the right section.

Manor Saumur (49)

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).

Vineyard Saumur (49)

A flawlessly restored 14th and 15th-century manor, graced with terraced gardens and a vineyard at the heart of the Loire Valley. Situated just 25 minutes away from the Loire River itself and its enchanting villages, antique markets, restaurants, cafes, and splendid castles. Despite the manor's Medieval origins, its cellars bear traces of civilization dating back to before 1200. The ground floor encompasses a guest room and a sequence of splendid reception halls, featuring large windows that offer garden views from all angles. The kitchen, with its La Cornue stove and vast La Cornue island, could easily serve as a backdrop for a culinary show. Ascending the original stone spiral staircase leads to three grand bedrooms and two bathrooms. Each of these rooms showcases impressive architectural elements such as double-mullioned windows or fireplaces. At the top of the spiral staircase lies the immense attic on the second floor, beneath cathedral-style roof beams, which could effortlessly be transformed into two additional bedrooms with bathrooms. Within the estate, you'll discover two exquisite buildings – a loggia and an orangery. The loggia spans two levels: a living area on the ground floor and a bedroom upstairs, connected by a magnificent 17th-century staircase. The Orangery, nestled in the gardens, is a beautifully restored space that could serve multiple purposes – a reception area, an artist's studio, a game room, a gym, or even a guest house. The owners spared no effort in restoring the property to its former glory while incorporating modern comforts like the Bang & Olufsen sound system, i-lighting, sophisticated and efficient central heating, and a spa bathtub. This region has long been known as the Garden of France, and this property stands as a testament to that reputation. The upper garden hosts a pool area surrounded by lush lawns. Through a gate lie 2 hectares of 20-40-year-old Chenin Blanc vines, classified under the Saumur AOC controlled designation of origin. This vineyard, a rarity much coveted by local winemakers, is overseen by a neighboring vintner, allowing the owners to savor their own blends without managing the vineyard themselves. The remainder of the garden, encircling the manor, consists of French-style terraces adorned with box hedges, roses, pleached linden trees, and a precious collection of mature and rare trees in the arboretum. A mere hour away from Tours Airport and an hour and a half from Paris by train.

Located just a short 25-minute journey from the picturesque Loire River and charming villages such as Montsoreau, flea markets, restaurants, cafes, and majestic chateaux, this property is a true gem. While the manor's origins trace back to the Middle Ages, its cellars reveal traces of civilization predating the 13th century. The ground floor features a welcoming guest bedroom and a series of splendid reception rooms adorned with expansive windows that offer captivating garden vistas in every direction. The kitchen, featuring a La Cornue stove and an expansive La Cornue island, is a design masterpiece worthy of a cooking show setting. Ascending the original spiral stone staircase, you'll discover three generous bedrooms and two bathrooms, each adorned with remarkable architectural elements, such as double mullioned windows and fireplaces. Continuing up the spiral stairs leads to an immense 2nd-floor loft space beneath a cathedral-like canopy of roof beams, which could readily be converted into two additional ensuite bedrooms. Within the park, two elegant structures await your exploration: a loggia and an orangery. The loggia is comprised of two levels, with a lower-level living area and an upper-level bedroom connected by a magnificent 17th-century staircase. The orangery, nestled within the gardens, has been beautifully restored and can be adapted for a variety of uses, including as an entertainment space, artist's studio, games room, gym, or guest house. The owners have spared no expense in restoring the estate to its former glory while seamlessly integrating modern creature comforts, including a Bang and Olufsen sound system, i-lighting, state-of-the-art central heating with a low-temperature heat pump, and a spa bath. This region has long been hailed as the Garden of France, and this property epitomizes that title. The manorhouse is enveloped by its own land on all sides. The swimming pool and loggia grace an upper terrace, while a grand stone staircase descends to the à la Française garden below, featuring formal box-lined parterres, roses, pleached lime trees encircling the house to the west and north. On the eastern side, a formal garden in an Anglo-Japanese style beckons, complete with a rose-covered pergola, lawns, and an arboretum boasting rare and precious mature trees. To the south, you'll find the vineyard itself, nestled amidst a serene forest. The 2 hectares of Chenin blanc vines, some over 40 years old, bear the coveted Saumur AOC appellation controle classification, a rarity highly sought after by local winemakers. The vineyard is expertly managed by a talented and amiable local winemaker, allowing the owners to savor their own vintages without the hassles of vineyard management. Located just 1.5 hours from Paris via the TGV train, and a convenient 1-hour drive from Tours and 2-hour drive from Nantes, both boasting international airports, this property offers a perfect blend of historical charm and modern convenience in one of France's most picturesque regions.
