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.

An elegant, neo-Gothic inspired residence, in 2 hectares of grounds, near to Nantes, overlooking the River Sèvre. On the left bank of the River Sèvre, the estate spreads over 2 uninterrupted hectares. After the entrance gate, a winding drive passes below the dense foliage of ancient oak trees. As it does, it passes in front of a 36-m² annex building used as a garage, then an enclosed, approximately 640-m² orchard overlooked by an around 35-m² Anjou style greenhouse with most of its glass panes intact. The drive finishes in a courtyard where the residence stands, facing southwest. In its current form, it is thought to date back to the late 19th century, between 1870 and 1890. It boasts approximately 550 m² of living space, spread throughout a basement covering the whole surface of the building, a raised ground floor, a first floor and a converted attic. The entirely fenced grounds gently slope down towards the river. Tall hundred-year-old trees are dotted around the grounds.

About thirty minutes from Angers, a village house from the 16th century listed as a historic monument, with outbuildings, a courtyard, and remarkable gardens. Flanked by two country stone pillars, an entrance gate opens onto a gravel courtyard. The imposing silhouette of the manor rises in front, with on one side, a wing of outbuildings, and on the other, the beginning of a garden that surrounds the building. The latter dates back to the 16th century, but its origins are older. This is evidenced by the walls of its north and south gables, extended by later and smaller buildings. Built with rubble stone and coated with lime, the dwelling is elevated over three levels, one of which is in the attic. The roof is made of Angers slate. In the center of the front façade, a pentagonal tower conceals the entrance and a staircase, with four bays on either side, two of which are mullioned. The frames of the door and bays are adorned with prismatic moldings and flamboyant friezes. A square tower at right angles punctuates the rear façade. Transformed into a farm for more than two centuries, the whole has been saved from ruin by the current occupants. The restoration work undertaken has been carried out in accordance with the rules of the art. The facades, roofs, and two chimneys from the 15th century have been listed as historic monuments since 1987.This description has been automatically translated from French.

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 19th-century chateau and its outbuildings, on 10-hectare grounds in the natural and historical region of Haut-Anjou. Standing in the middle of the property and surrounded by expansive meadows, the main dwelling is extended to the east by several outbuildings, a vegetable garden and aviaries, which are all easily accessible thanks to a second entrance located on this side of the property.

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.

In Anjou, at the exit of a village, an ancient priory from the 15th and 18th centuries on over 6 hectares. From the road, a tree-lined access path leads to the property. It culminates in a gravel courtyard, with a barn on one side and an agricultural shed on the other. In front, surrounded by old moats on two of its sides, the residence is preceded by an elevated terrace. Built on the remains of an old fortress, the original priory dates back to the 15th century. It was extensively remodeled and enlarged in the 18th century, as evidenced by the arrangement of the front facades, with their arched windows.

Constructed of stone rubble coated with lime, both buildings rise three levels, one of which is under the roof.

A 16th-century manor, its outbuildings and 10-hectare grounds, nestled within the countryside of the Guérande peninsula. Along a secondary road bordered by trees, a gate marks the entrance to the property. From a car park, a drive leads to the main courtyard, around which the buildings are grouped, whereas the estate itself was originally built for a lord from the Guérande peninsula and was modified and adapted over the centuries in several different stages: the dwelling’s central building was extended in the 17th century, a floor was added atop the right-angle wing in the 18th century, before being renovated and modernised in the early 2000s. To the east, the 16th-century main dwelling features two storeys as well as an attic level, while the central building and its right-angle wing create an L-shaped ensemble, connected by a staircase tower tucked into its interior angle.
