Ref 4864: Stunning château and outbuildings for sale in the Vendée The château is situated in the Vendée bocage, in the eastern part of the department, in a hilly region renowned for its unspoilt rural landscapes, featuring hedgerows, meadows and small woods. It occupies a strategic location, at the junction of the Vendée, Maine-et-Loire and Deux-Sèvres departments. The flagship tourist attraction of Puy du Fou, which attracts over 4 million visitors a year, is less than 20 kilometres away. This part of the Vendée’s ‘haut-bocage’ has seen growing interest in its heritage over the past twenty years, thanks in particular to the cultural tourism generated by Puy du Fou and the search for character properties offering accommodation potential. A typical small town is located approximately 2 kilometres away. This town has a surprisingly dense commercial network for a municipality of around 5,500 inhabitants. The property is in a quiet location with no immediate neighbours. The approach to the estate is a sight to behold. Once you pass through a beautiful wrought-iron gate, guarded by a statue, the path winds its way between rhododendron beds and majestic, centuries-old trees. At the top of the hill, you reach the château. Set on a hilltop, it displays perfect neo-medieval symmetry. It is organised around a rectangular main building flanked by four hexagonal towers at the corners. The fortress-like effect is now accentuated by the lower roofs, which were once high, slate-covered hipped roofs. Inside, the château was renovated some thirty years ago. Imposing neo-Gothic panelling in light oak has been fitted throughout the rooms. From the large windows, there are unobstructed views of the grounds, the ponds and the surrounding countryside. The rooms are spacious and very light. The ground floor opens onto a spacious, double-height entrance hall, showcasing an elegant staircase in light wood. This level comprises a living room with a fireplace, a dining room also featuring a fireplace, a library with a fireplace, as well as a kitchen and its utility room. Each of the towers houses a characterful room, offering additional spaces full of charm. This level also features a guest toilet, an additional room that can be fitted out as required, and the start of a second staircase leading to the upper floors. On the first floor, a spacious landing running the length of the floor, featuring a sitting room, a fireplace and remarkable stained-glass windows, leads to all the rooms. This level comprises a spacious bedroom with its own bathroom and toilet, a second large bedroom with a fireplace and its own bathroom, as well as a very large bedroom which also has its own bathroom and toilet. It also features a more intimate bedroom with its own shower room and toilet, another bedroom with a fireplace, a separate toilet, and a room on a half-level, accessible via the second staircase, which serves as a cloakroom and storage area for staff. The second floor comprises a spacious open-plan area that can be fitted out to suit the needs and plans of its future occupants. Featuring a concrete slab floor, high ceilings beneath a steel roof structure and a slate roof, this space offers particularly attractive potential for development. A full basement, accessible from both inside and outside, completes the property. The property features numerous outbuildings, including seven self-contained dwellings. A/ 5 self-contained dwellings (former stables) To the right of the château stands a long building whose architecture blends perfectly with that of the main house. Formerly stables, with a large entrance porch running through them, this complex now comprises five apartments. Each comprises a kitchen, a living room, a toilet, two or three bedrooms, and one or more bathrooms or shower rooms. Renovation work is required, particularly regarding the door and window frames. At the far end of the building, a smaller dwelling offers interesting potential for restoration and requires a complete refurbishment. B/ A detached house of approximately 81 m² completes this complex (property 6). C/ An elegant 19th-century-style caretaker’s house, situated at the entrance to the property, benefits from a recently replaced roof and a modern drainage system (property 7). D/ A charming chapel, in good overall condition, retains a beautiful stone vault and distinctive stained-glass windows. Several other outbuildings enhance the estate: a utility room, a wash house, a greenhouse, a storage building and a covered courtyard. Set in the tranquillity of an estate spanning over 11 hectares, the park harmoniously unfolds a series of carefully composed landscape views. Within this unspoilt natural setting, wooded areas, vast meadows and wooded zones follow one another. The estate comprises around 1.5 hectares of woodland and nearly 9 hectares of open meadows, offering a sense of space and breathing room. The remarkable species of trees that dot the park bear witness to its history and character: majestic Lebanese cedars, sumptuous purple beeches, monkey puzzle trees… Two ponds enhance this natural setting, whilst a river runs through the property. There is also the option to purchase an additional property situated at the rear of the outbuildings, comprising various farm buildings in need of renovation, a residential house, land and a private driveway, covering a total area of 1 hectare, 61 ares and 32 centiares.

A stately residence, dating back to the 12th century, in 2.6 ha of parklands on the outskirts of a village in the Anjou region. The access road, bordered on one side by poplar trees, goes alongside the parklands and leads to a first set of entrance gates which open into a garage courtyard, within which is a second set of gates. The latter provides access to the caretaker’s cottage, the manor house and the outbuildings. The various buildings, standing in the middle of more than 2.6 ha parklands, are set out around a garden, featuring boxwood and lawn and facing the manor house.

A 17th century manor house and its 25 ha estate on the banks of the Mayenne . From a small road leading along the picturesque banks of the river to Château-Gontier, a gate provides access to the stately almost 400 m long driveway of the property, bordered by a double row of tulip trees. A courtyard and two formal rectangular gardens face the manor house to the south. To the east flows the river Mayenne. To the west, the wooded hillside gently slopes down. To the north, there are a technical building and a garage, farm buildings, a stream, woodlands and ponds. The property is unoverlooked.

A listed, 15th &17th century house, with an outbuilding and a garden, in the undulating, wooded countryside of the Anjou region. This house stands on the edge of a little country lane, going through the forest, and in a hamlet composed of several houses, including another historic manor house. A small planted garden enhances the house facade. A rear courtyard, also planted, is bordered on one of its sides by an outbuilding and a low wall. Further away, reached by steps, a garden and the forest, part of which could be purchased.

A set of three houses renovated into a comfortable holiday estate on the banks of the Loire River near the city of Angers. From the lane that runs through the hamlet, two entrance gates lead into the property. The first one leads into a courtyard, from where you can enter the main house and the two secondary dwellings, which outbuildings adjoin. The main house is made of rubble schist with pointing. It has a ground floor and a first floor in the roof space. Its gabled slate roof is punctuated with dormers with triangular pediments. The quoins, cornices, and window and door surrounds are made of tuffeau-stone ashlar. An extension with large, workshop-style glazing on three sides takes up part of the western gable end. This extension is also crowned with a slate roof, which has three slopes. An outdoor flight of slate steps climbs up the western gable end too. A stone terrace edges the facade and another stone terrace edges the rear elevation. The second gate leads into another courtyard, where there is a car park. The grounds extend on the south side. A former orchard lies beyond the walls, which partly enclose the grounds.

A grand house with a remarkable view, overlooking the banks of the River Erdre, 15 kilometres from Nantes. The entrance to the property is via a motorised, wrought iron gate at the end of a cul-de-sac off a small local road. A drive traverses a thicket and runs around the back of the house, leading to garages and a Directoire-style terrace. From here, the majestic view opens out over the parkland below and the Erdre at its widest point. The steeply sloping grounds, planted with centuries-old trees, end in a bank almost 100 m long, featuring a private jetty. A small country house built by the town's former mayor on the banks of the River Erdre in 1821, it was subsequently remodelled with the addition of a Directoire-style double dormer window. Two wings were added in the early 20th century, lending the residence its true 'folie nantaise' (Nantes folly) appearance, named after the summer villas built by wealthy industrialists at that time. The rectangular folly has a central section with three bays, flanked by two single-bay wings. At the top of the grounds, close to the entrance gates, there are discreet outbuildings used for parking vehicles and storing equipment. Their coursed schist masonry walls and tiled roofs stand in no contrast with those of the noble building, with its rendered facades and slate roof.

A 16th century manor house, with converted outbuildings and 2 ha of land, where the borders of the Mayenne department meet those of Brittany . A lane leads off the main road to wrought iron gates that open into a gravel courtyard, which borders the manor house, followed by the large outbuilding, on one side. Large, grassy areas surround the buildings and the courtyard, protected by tree and shrub hedges. A driveway leads to a garage. Behind the manor, a terrace separates it from an outbuilding and a covered swimming pool. A woodstore and a small outbuilding are laid out alongside the thick hedge.

South of the Normandy-Maine Regional Park, a 15th century feudal manor house, its outbuildings and its pond . Access to the property is via a driveway framed by an orchard and a vegetable plot. Old outbuildings face each other on either side. The residence stands at the back of the courtyard. Meadows planted with hedges enclose the buildings. They protect them from the wind and provide shelter from prying eyes. The complex offers views over the surrounding countryside, from the pastures to the cultivated fields. Two ponds receive water from a stream that flows into the Sarthe, a few meadows away. The origins of the site date back to the eleventh century. In the 14th century, this was one of the largest feudal manors in the area. During the French Revolution, it lost its influence. Built around 1450 by the Saint-Berthevin family, the cellar and the central part of the present building, with its monumental fireplace, bear witness to this feudal past. However, the defensive towers once abutting this feudal building have not survived. In the 18th century, the parish registers mentioned the old pond and the fishing rights for the farm.

A family chateau where a famous novelist lived, tucked away in the beautiful countryside of France’s Anjou province. The chateau stands in the shade of age-old trees that tower in English-style grounds. The edifice was recently restored. Its roofing, insulation, electricity, plumbing, windows and sanitation system were renovated. Its 40-metre-long facade stretches from north to south. The chateau has a main section with dual-aspect rooms. This section is framed between a pavilion at its north end and a second pavilion at its south end. Two towers also adjoin it. One of these towers houses a chapel. To the south and west of the dwelling, there are 6,500m² of tree-dotted grounds that are easy to maintain. The property was the family home of the famous French novelist Hervé Bazin. The current owner recreated the atmosphere of Bazin’s novel ‘Vipère au Poing’ here and opened the chateau to visitors. The property has been entirely adapted to comply with norms for France’s accreditation for a building to be open to the public. It now resembles a museum and can be used as a business.

A listed historical monument Renaissance era manor with a formal garden, between Angers and Nantes, 25 minutes north of Ancenis. The manor stands on the southern edge of the church square and is surrounded to the north and east by a walled garden. The outbuilding is located on the eastern side of the property. The origins of the manor date from the 15th century, though it was considerably extended and enhanced during the following century, in 1565 to be precise, as indicated on a date stone on the façade. At this point in time, the building became flanked by a tall, square staircase tower topped with a pavilion roof. The summit of the tower boasts a conical vault, which is an architectural element typical of the Renaissance. It was built to support a small flight of stairs to the very top of the attic. The building’s structure is made of rough-hewn blocks of shale, rendered with a mix of lime and sand. Its roofs are made of slate and its chimney stacks of red brick. The tall façades are dotted with large windows and doors with tuffeau stone frames.

A dwelling from the Art Deco period with Haussmannian-style interior décor and its garden of nearly 900 m², near Nantes. Located on a one-way street, the property is accessible via a wrought-iron gate, framed by square pillars, as well as a second gate, which leads to the garage, while a tall stone wall and dense hedges shelter the property from view. Built in 1931, the completely detached villa of approximately 240 m² embodies a period marked by the transition between the Art Deco movement and the first signs of modernism, which results in a two-storey building topped with a roof terrace. In addition, the dwelling faces an ornamental, grassy garden of nearly 900 m², which is completely sheltered from view thanks to dense landscaped copses and tall stone walls, while a garden shed is located to the west of the edifice.

An elegant, 19th century chateau and its outbuildings in Vendee's lowland bocage countryside on the outskirts of La-Roche-sur-Yon. A central, 200 m long alleyway, lined with oak trees, crosses 10 hectares of fields before reaching the main entrance. This is guarded by a hunting lodge and tall metal gates. A perimeter wall encloses the property. The 3 hectares of parklands, gardens landscaped in 1893 and redesigned in 2002, are planted with several trees over a hundred years old, including sequoia, ash, oak and lime trees. They also have numerous camellia, azalea and boxwood bushes. Alleyways lead to the various outbuildings of the chateau, some of which have been so well renovated that they are able to accommodate up to 40 guests. The property’s two swimming pools, one heated indoor pool and one outdoor pool, make it possible to take relaxing dips from April through until October. An orangery is but an invitation to read and relax. On the sides and in front of the chateau are the old wash-house, the bread oven and the moat, all bearing witness to its history.

In a village in Vendée, near Les Herbiers and Puy-du-Fou, a 19th-century school converted into a guest house and gîtes, with a garden. Built in the mid-19th century, the property is an old school that underwent extensive renovation starting in 2010 and continuing until 2024 (some parts are still under a ten-year warranty). The entrance gate, topped with a finely crafted pediment, marks the entrance to the property. The main building is two stories high, under a tiled roof. The dwelling is extended by two wings that form a square courtyard. Its gables include, on one side, a covered area and, on the other, an additional wing for the private part of the house. In front of the northeast facade are a terrace and a garden, with a heated swimming pool. A second terrace and a covered area ideal for children's games complete the outdoor spaces. An independent apartment, separate from the areas reserved for guests, consists of three bedrooms and a spacious living area.This description has been automatically translated from French.
