Remarkable 17th C. Castle in Maine-et-Loire departement, for sale

Ref. 4383 : Remarkable 17th C. Castle for sale, in Maine-et-Loire departement

This delightful property is located in the Haut Anjou region, in the heart of the blue granite country, with its mix of bocage landscapes and typical Loire villages. History holds a special place here, as the area was a stronghold of the Chouannerie during the wars of the west, pitting royalists against republicans at the end of the 17th century. Since then, the environment has become peaceful and natural.
The nearby village has all the shops you need, while Angers, 15 minutes away, provides access to all means of transport (Tgv linking Paris in 1 hour 26 minutes), shops, schools, universities and a wide range of leisure activities.

The main building comprises an elegant 17th century chateau with a three-storey, five-bay, slate roof topped by five remarkable pediment roof dormers embellished with coats of arms, flanked to the east by a pavilion added in the 18th century. An interminable angevine longère, set at right angles, completes the ensemble.

The interior is arranged as follows:

-Ground floor: a vestibule with an attractive wooden baluster stairway leading to the upper floor, and on either side, a large lounge, a dining room, a kitchen and a small lounge. These rooms are open-plan and feature oak parquet and tiled floors, imposing marble, wood and tufa mantels with beautifully decorated overmantels, as well as diamond-pointed panelling and high panelling. Technical rooms and boiler room in the 18th century pavilion.

-On the first floor: A vast gallery leads to four suites with en-suite shower rooms, all with similar décor to that seen on the ground floor.

In the 18th century pavilion, there are two other bedrooms, also beautifully decorated, and shower rooms.
