Built on the banks of the Loire, close to charming typical Loire villages, this elegant 19th century château is located in the 'Valley of the Kings', so called because for centuries the kings of France had made it their summer holiday resort or their main residence. In the heart of a rich heritage environment, this property is ideally situated, both in terms of its easy accessibility from Paris and Bordeaux and its proximity to the economic, industrial and university centres of Angers and Nantes, as well as to the major rail and airport links in the west (Angers and Nantes). Essential shops are located not far from the village, and the town of Angers, 30 minutes away by car, provides all the shops and services as well as numerous tourist activities. Facing south, this majestic chateau of approx. 1100sqm is built on 7 hectares of land (one of which is constructible), slightly sloping and overlooking the Loire. The three interior levels, all served by a lift, are distributed as follows: The ground floor comprises a vast, spacious vestibule (4.30 m under the ceiling) which opens onto a remarkably uncluttered stone stairway, beautiful reception rooms (a dining room, a lounge, a library lounge), a large kitchen with a storeroom at the back, and bathrooms. There are classic oak and herringbone parquet floors, cabochon tiles, marble fireplaces, trumeaux, finely worked wooden picture rails and beautifully decorated ceilings. An interior door gives direct access to the two basement cellars. A third cellar contains the boiler room.

It is mainly composed of offices, meeting rooms, work areas and kitchen/dining areas. The second (980sqm) is independent and off-centre from the castle.

Beautifully designed English-style parkland adorned with beautiful trees (cedars, oaks, lime trees, ash trees, umbrella pines and cypresses), some of which are centuries old. With a beautiful pond of approximately 7500sqm and a small wood of deciduous trees, it is easy to move around thanks to the stabilised paths that run around this large park.

In Anjou, near the banks of the Loire, a village house with an annex, outbuildings, and a park of more than 1 hectare. From the street, an imposing wooden gate flanked by two tuffeau pillars gives access to a courtyard. This courtyard distributes, on one side, the dwelling with a first outbuilding facing it, and on the other side, a larger outbuilding, part of which is inhabited. Beyond the courtyard, the park, completely enclosed by walls, extends over more than 1 hectare. At the bottom of the park, a path also provides access to the courtyard. The house is three stories high, including an attic. Built of rendered stone, it is topped with a slate roof with two slopes pierced by dormer windows. The frames of the openings, the cornice, and the dormers are made of tuffeau. Its origins are ancient, and many of its elements have been preserved. In the 19th century, a central projection topped with a dormer was added to the main facade. Renovation work is expected in the annex, and, more occasionally, in the main house. The outbuildings are constructed of tuffeau with four-slope slate roofs pierced by dormer windows.This description has been automatically translated from French.

A renovated farmhouse from the 16th century with a swimming pool, an orchard and outbuildings, not far from the city of Angers, in France’s Maine-et-Loire department. A wooden entrance gate, framed between two ashlar pilasters, leads into the property, a former farm complex. The property used to belong to a manor, which stands on the other side of the road. The complex was built in the 16th century. It was the home of Hercules de Moreau, a valet to the king, and later, in the 18th century, it was the home of the Guéniveau family, who passed it on to Joseph-Eugène Bonnemère. The latter was a famous author and playwright. The main edifice is built of tuffeau stone, with rubble stone for the elevations and ashlar for the window and door surrounds. A gable slate roof crowns the building. Many steel-and-glass windows punctuate the north and south sides. A porch leads to the cellars. This porch’s roof has a hipped end and is supported with four pillars with mouldings. Opposite, there is another building. It is partly converted and it houses a bread oven. Between the two buildings, there is a granary with a ground floor and first floor. A three-slope roof crowns it. Its western elevation is made of ashlar and is punctuated with three bull’s-eye windows. At the bottom of the garden lies a former stable. A walled orchard can be reached from outside. A swimming pool lies there.

Nestled in the vibrant and sought-after city of Angers, this elegant property offers approximately 267 sqm of living space, set within beautifully landscaped grounds of over 2,600 sqm. Full of character, this distinguished residence captivates with its generous proportions and abundant natural light throughout. An impressive outbuilding further enhances the property, offering a wealth of development opportunities and considerable potential. The main living area features bright and spacious interiors. It comprises a refined living room with high ceilings, original solid wood flooring and a period fireplace, creating a warm and elegant atmosphere. The adjoining dining room, together with a fully fitted and equipped kitchen, opens onto a terrace overlooking the landscaped garden and swimming pool. The upper floors are entirely dedicated to the sleeping quarters and are arranged over two levels. Each floor offers three comfortable bedrooms and a shower room. The top floor benefits from a practical layout but would benefit from some cosmetic updating. A laundry room could easily be converted into an additional shower room if required. The garden level completes the property with a range of versatile ancillary spaces. It currently comprises a boiler room, a wine cellar, a billiard room and a summer kitchen leading to a bright glazed room. This space is ideal as a winter lounge, fitness room or leisure area, with direct access to the swimming pool and gardens. The property also includes a traditional longère-style outbuilding offering approximately 140 sqm of ground-floor space, presenting numerous possibilities including storage, office conversion or a rental investment project.
