A 16th century château with a former keep in the Loire Valley

Posted on Sun, 6 Apr 2025 by KiM

A beautifully renovated 4 bedroom historical manor house, full of charm and character with a separate one bedroom apartment, set in 1 3/4 acres of beautiful landscaped gardens with plunge pool, while enjoying far reaching countryside views from its location near Le Mans. The manor house dates back to the 16th century and a square lodge called a “Pavillon” which we understand was a former keep dating back prior to the Hundred Years War. The keep offers roughly 90m2 of living space over two floors. In addition, there is a 30m2 garage with mezzanine area (10m2) and a wooden store in front of the former kennels. The total area of the plot is over 1.5acres with a courtyard providing ample parking, part walled formal gardens and established mature trees, a large water basin (used as a plunge pool), vegetable garden with vine and greenhouse, troglodyte caves and a small woodland with chestnut trees.
I am mostly sharing this because of the fabulous exterior and that really cool pool. The interior is just plain bad but some original architecture that makes it worthy. I’d buy this. For sale via Prestige Property for €958,000.
