Ref.4311: Charming property for sale in the Loire-Atlantique French department. Ideally located around ten kilometres south-east of Nantes, on the outskirts of the urban area and at the gateway to the vineyards, Haute-Goulaine aims to be a land of 'good living'. Renowned vineyards, 375 hectares of classified marshland, lush green hedged farmland, protected woodland, a rich and remarkable built heritage... This rich palette of landscapes gives this enterprising and friendly commune an undeniable charm. Haute-Goulaine: an unspoilt, human setting just a stone's throw from a dynamic metropolis, and less than an hour from the beaches of the Atlantic coast. The property is located in a small hamlet around 2 kilometres from the centre of Haute Goulaine, where you'll find all the local shops, as well as primary and secondary schools. Today, the property has retained its noble character, with its manor house and 18th-century outbuildings, set in parkland with centuries-old trees.
