42-BEDROOM ACCOMMODATION ESTATE, LE MANS CIRCUIT - Fully restored princely Napoléon III-style chateau with accommodation complex, 42 bedrooms, 3,000 m² of living space, 8 hectares, in the countryside. 20 km from Le Mans, 18 km from the 24 Hours of Le Mans circuit. Le Mans, Sarthe, Pays de la Loire. Built for a princely family in 1882 on a T-shaped plan designed by Pierre-Félix Delarue (1795–1873), the chateau displays Napoléon III-style architecture, with a polychromy of materials evoking 17th-century French architecture: brick and cut stone with multi-pitched slate roofs and domes. This elegant chateau is sheltered by woodland in the heart of the Sarthe countryside. The entrance opens into a vast hall featuring a grand staircase with Neo-Gothic wood paneling. The large reception room (120 m²), decorated with wood paneling, opens through its original large bay windows onto a terrace with a double-flight staircase. The ground floor also offers a splendid Louis XV library with 18th-century “à la capucine” woodwork signed by Étienne Leroy (1724–1774), cabinetmaker in La Flèche. On the first floor are three suites and two salons, and on the second floor nine bedrooms with shower rooms. On the third floor, 11 bedrooms requiring restoration. Oak parquet flooring covers the floors from the ground floor to the second floor, and each bedroom features its own marble fireplace. Particularly remarkable are the superb 18th-century wood panelings in one of the first-floor bedrooms, decorated with trophies of musical and gardening instruments suspended by ribbons above mirrors framed with elegant leafy reed motifs. The attic beneath the roof is entirely convertible. In the basement, accessed via the service staircase, are the boiler room with newly renovated electrical installation, a storage room, and a professional kitchen.
