In a peaceful valley of forest and field lies this magnificent abbey, a listed Hitstorical Monument, with a proud history and splendid architectural features in its exterior and interior. Set within a single estate of 18 ha 08 a 96 ca crossed by a small stream, this elegant château rises at the heart of a landscaped property. Originally the abbatial residence of a monastery, the estate features a pleasant tree-lined entrance drive, a beautiful courtyard of honour, and a well-designed park enhanced by an old hornbeam walk and fine ornamental trees. A small kitchen garden and meadows dotted with ancient oak trees complete the setting. The property enjoys a privileged location between Le Mans and Angers, in the midst of preserved countryside. A village with essential shops lies only 3 km away, while a small town less than 10 km from the property provides full services and a TGV railway station. The estate is also easily accessible via the nearby motorway. The château corresponds to the former abbot’s residence of the monastery. Because the commendatory abbots generally lived at court or in their dioceses, the residence was arranged and decorated from the mid-18th century onward in order to be rented to private occupants. This use explains the refined and residential character of the interior decoration, much of which has survived in remarkable condition. Offering approximately 400 m² on each level, the ground floor is organized around a central vestibule paved with cabochon stone tiles and positioned along the main axis of the façade. This space leads to the reception rooms and formerly provided access to the cloister. Two lateral doors framed with sculpted cartouches decorate the vestibule: one adorned with stylised foliage in a pure Rocaille style, the other with a medallion depicting an armoured figure holding a quiver and crowned with a laurel wreath. To the left of the vestibule lies a large salon measuring 7.29 m by 10.72 m, with stone flooring and four windows overlooking the courtyard of honour and the park. The room retains its original 18th-century décor. The central door, with its original woodwork and iron fittings, is surmounted by a sculpted panel depicting a trophy of musical instruments accompanied by a bust and garlands. The four side doors are decorated with stucco medallions representing allegories of the four seasons, created by itinerant artists of Italian origin—decorative work that is relatively rare in the region. The stone fireplace, with Rocaille ornamentation, was originally painted to imitate marble, while the grey wall tones today echo the colours used before the French Revolution. This wing of the ground floor also includes a small tiled sitting room with a wooden fireplace, a kitchen-dining room with terracotta flooring, a bedroom with dressing room and modern bathroom, and a service staircase. To the right of the vestibule is an oak-parqueted study with a 19th-century marble fireplace, created from the former waiting room of the abbatial residence, which was divided during the 19th century to form this office and a passage toward the dining room. The dining room retains most of its Louis XV decorative elements: the fountain, fireplace and sideboards beneath the windows are made of black marble from Solesmes. The fireplace mantel, designed and painted to resemble carved panelling, is made of sculpted stone, as are the frame of the central doorway decorated with a basket of flowers and the fountain surround crowned by a sculpted head of Neptune. A second vestibule leads to the main staircase, a wooden stair with square balusters dating from the late 17th century. Its first flight is built into the thickness of the wall, leaving access to the library, whose doorway is surmounted by a sculpted 19th-century head. This level also includes the library, a dining room installed in the former kitchen with terracotta flooring, a monumental fireplace and an original cooking range, as well as a small kitchen, a laundry room, various service rooms, a small cellar and a WC. The first floor is arranged around a gallery that serves four bedrooms with bathrooms or washrooms, two additional bedrooms, a children’s bedroom, a bathroom and a linen room. In the south wing there is an independent apartment composed of a living room with an 18th-century fireplace, a library, a kitchen and a bedroom with bathroom and WC. A large attic extends above the whole building. The outbuildings include several service buildings containing storage sheds, a workshop, stables, a tack room, a barn, a dovecote, a sheepfold, and former bakery and dairy buildings. A caretaker’s house, entirely restored in recent years, comprises an entrance hall, tiled kitchen, back kitchen, living room, two bedrooms, a bathroom and WC. The property is also equipped with full equestrian facilities. The stable features Regupol rubber flooring in the stalls and in the wash area, with Röwer & Rüb boxes (4 x 3.6 m) made of hardwood, galvanized and painted burgundy, and a solarium equipped with UV and infrared lamps. The indoor arena, of Olympic dimensions (21 x 61 m), is drained around the perimeter and every ten metres. It rests on a crushed stone foundation with a compacted layer, topped with 14 to 16 cm of Fontainebleau sand mixed with high-quality Belgian fibres. The arena includes safety mirrors (6 m in the centre and 3 m in each corner) and an irrigation system supplied by water from the river. A lunging ring with a diameter of 18 m, built on a compacted crushed-stone foundation, is covered with a mixture of Fontainebleau sand, natural sand and fibres to create a deeper base. Wooden paddocks complete the equestrian facilities. The entrance gatehouse, the façades and roofs of the abbot’s residence, the well, the vestibule and staircase, the large salon and dining room on the ground floor, the seven bedrooms on the first floor, and the bridge over the stream are all listed as **Historic Monuments**. The façades and roofs of the outbuildings, together with the dovecote in its entirety, are listed on the **Supplementary Inventory of Historic Monuments**. The property therefore benefits from the favourable tax regime associated with Historic Monument status.

Réf. 4855 : a charming castle 30 km from Angers. In Upper Anjou, this charming little château, built in the early 19th century at the behest of the current owners’ ancestors, stands on a promontory and commands a commanding view over the Oudon valley. This elegant residence immediately captivates with the purity of its lines and the quality of its setting in the heart of a beautiful wooded park, a veritable haven of greenery in which it has found its place remarkably well. Close to Angers, and not far from the market town of Le Lion d’Angers, which is a five-minute drive away, this property enjoys a favourable location between Paris and the coast, and a central position linking it to the major cities of the West: Nantes, Rennes, Le Mans and Bordeaux. Just a stone’s throw away, the Parc de l’Isle Briand is home to one of the world’s most renowned equestrian venues. It is bordered by the Lion d’Angers racecourse, which hosts several internationally recognised equestrian events each year. Quiet yet not isolated, the property captivates with both the purity of its classical style and the unobstructed views offered by the surrounding countryside. The setting is ideal for family life as well as for a refined country residence. The château’s architecture, characterised by great simplicity, reflects the style of the fine mansions of the Anjou region: a symmetrical layout, tall windows and well-balanced proportions. The eye is drawn here more to the overall harmony than to decorative elements, lending the whole building a great deal of distinction. Inspired by the Loire Valley style, it was built in local stone and tuffeau limestone to a four-storey plan with a slate roof and four bays arranged around a slightly projecting central bay, thanks to the monumental entrance portal, framed by simple pilasters supporting a moulded entablature with dentils. The particularly elegant semi-circular door is surmounted by a fan-shaped transom window that lends the whole structure a sense of delicacy and verticality. Also of note is the presence, as on the south side, of a pretty double-curved staircase on the north side. These interior spaces cover an area of approximately 400 sqm and are laid out as follows: On the raised ground floor: an entrance hall, from which a remarkable balustrade staircase rises, provides access to a series of adjoining rooms—the reception room, music room, study, large sitting room and dining room—and to a hallway leading to a kitchen and a small sitting room. These rooms are adorned with attractive decorative features, marble fireplaces, beautiful antique parquet flooring, wooden picture rails and moulded ceilings. On the first floor: a landing leads to a bedroom with an en-suite bathroom on one side, and to a gallery leading to three bedrooms, a dressing room and two bathrooms. Just like on the ground floor, you can see antique parquet flooring, attractive decorative features, marble fireplaces, wooden picture rails and ornate ceilings. On the second floor: a corridor leads to former staff bedrooms in the attic. On the basement: former service rooms used for storage and as a boiler room. Outbuildings : The property comprises the following outbuildings: 1/ A former U-shaped stable building enclosing a square courtyard to the east, with a walled rear courtyard to the west, built of local stone and tuffeau with a slate roof (recently re-roofed). It comprises several rooms used for storage, workshops and a garage, as well as two functional dwellings: The annexe: on the ground floor, a living room with a kitchen area and a staircase leading to the upper floor, plus a toilet. On the first floor, three bedrooms, a shower room and a toilet. Features include original terracotta floor tiles, simple window frames and double glazing, heating via a wood-burning insert and electric convector heaters, hot water supplied by an electric boiler, and a private sewage system in need of upgrading. The caretaker’s accommodation: on the ground floor, entrance hall with staircase leading to the upper floor, toilet, kitchen and bedroom on the same level. On the first floor, three bedrooms, a bathroom and a shower room. Features single window frames and double glazing, heating via a wood-burning stove, hot water supplied by an electric boiler, private sewage system in need of updating. 2/ Other outbuildings: sheepfold, adjoining stable, kennel and woodshed in need of renovation. A large and magnificent 16 acres of English-style parkland, featuring beautiful trees dating back several centuries (cedars, redwoods, oaks, chestnut trees, sweet chestnuts, camellias, etc.), a charming little pond and a large walled vegetable garden. There is a well on the property. One immediately feels a sense of tranquillity and harmony, as if the place naturally invites you to slow down, contemplate and savour an environment that has remained unspoilt.
