A renovated 15th-century manor, with an outbuilding and 1.5-hectare grounds, located near the birthplace of Ronsard in the Loir River Valley. Dating from the Renaissance, the property, neither a national or regional historical monument, is currently located in a protected area and originally formed a hamlet with the surrounding enclosed properties. From a small country lane, a drive leads to one of the property’s five separate entrances. Once past the main entrance, there is a small pavilion, which was converted into a guesthouse, followed by the two-storey, rectangular manor house. Originally from the 15th century, its central building is topped with a local tile gable roof and punctuated by tall cross-windows. Flanked on one side by a stairway tower with a modillion frieze and a slate roof, on the manor’s other gable end, stands a more modest one-storey building topped with an ancient tile roof. With plaster-coated walls, the manor is decorated with an ashlar stone cornice under the eaves as well as tuffeau stone window and door surrounds. In addition, the frames for the house’s single- or double-glazed cross-windows have all been replaced and are safeguarded by interior shutters. Behind the house, 14 cellars have been hollowed out of the hillside, some of which once contained mushroom beds of varying depths. According to local legend, they also once communicated with the nearby Possonnière manor house where Pierre de Ronsard was born. Lastly, the property’s grounds also include a formal garden, an Italian-inspired garden, a landscaped garden, pinewoods, a dry riverbed and a pasture.

Réf. 4458 : Character home for sale in Loir et Cher department. In the heart of the popular touristic village of Trôo on the banks of the Loir river this home offers comfortable accommodation for a family and guests. The village has 3 restaurants and a short drive (or cycle ride) sees you in the local market town of Montoire sur Loir, 20 mins drive into Vendome or 40mins into Tours both with their TGV links to Paris and beyond. Its layout, made up of tiered terraces, caves, paths and staircases, is highly unusual. With no real streets or center, it's curiosity that makes you want to explore it further. The most common interpretation of its name is “trou”, an allusion to the caves that hollow out the hillside. Trôo would be the old English or Angevin spelling. Its troglodytic dwellings give an idea of how people lived in the past, and the underground network of caves and galleries is a reminder that turbulent periods in our history led people to take refuge here Trôo's history swings between glory days and decline: a privileged geographical location, a territory coveted by the kingdoms of England and France, a resentful Henry IV, a wealthy town of 5,000 souls, religious links, a population involved in the political process... The peaceful 21st century has seen the emergence of a village where life is good, appreciated by tourists, second homes and residents alike. It is all about « lifestyle », whether chateaux, manor or winegrowers cottage each property offers a certain lifestyle to those who have the opportunity to live within. This unconventional property, part troglodyte part house provides an opportunity for a unique lifestyle in harmony with the village that surrounds it.
