Réf. 4814 : A beautiful property with outbuildings in Mayenne. This property is situated in Haut-Anjou, on the border between Mayenne and Maine-et-Loire, set in wooded countryside and 3 km from a village. A small town of 3,000 inhabitants, about 10 km away, offers all the amenities you need for daily life. The pretty town of Château-Gontier is 14 km away, Angers 40 km, and Paris 280 km. The TGV station at Sablé-sur-Sarthe is 25 km away, and the Etriché-Châteauneuf station (TER) is 15 km away. The ancient medieval town of Château-Gontier boasts a rich architectural heritage. Among other things, the former Ursuline Convent (dating from the 17th century) now houses a national theatre, the Romanesque church of Saint-Jean-Baptiste (dating from the 11th century) with its wall frescoes, and the half-timbered houses and concentration of mansions symbolising the wealth of this town. The house was built in the 18th century as an extension of a 17th-century building, and a small annexe from that period still stands today. Built in the classical style, it is a plastered stone building with a slate roof. The exhibition runs through the building, as it opens to the west onto a courtyard enclosed by low walls and flanked by two outbuildings, and to the east onto the garden.
