Castle Laval Bootz - 13 bedrooms - 600m²

Ref.4803: Attractive château for sale near Laval – Mayenne (Pays de la Loire)

Built in Mayenne, in the historic province of Maine, this château stands close to a lively small town. Set on higher ground, it overlooks a small river flowing below. A TER railway station is 700 m from the property. All everyday amenities are within walking distance (supermarkets, bakeries, cinema, etc.). Laval, 20 minutes away by car, offers a full range of shops and services.

The hedged farmland of Maine is renowned for its picturesque character and fertility, and is bordered by the provinces of Normandy, Anjou and Brittany…

The château was built in the 20th century as an extension to a small château dating from the late 19th century, in the 1870s. It is built of rendered stone rubble and has a slate roof. The principal façade faces south. The property is flanked by six turrets. The whole is quite imposing and makes an impressive ensemble.

A few steps lead to a terrace running along the south-facing façade. Above the entrance door, which invites us into the building, is an imposing pediment featuring a mosaic of a winged lion, the “Lion of St Mark”.

The château offers approximately 600 m² of living space, excluding the attic, and comprises:

On the ground floor: a grand entrance hall and staircase (47 m²), topped by a dome and its peristyle.

A corridor (36 m²) leads to two reception rooms (40 m² each, ceiling height: 4.25 m), which can be combined to create a single 80 m² room thanks to an attractive folding partition.

Billiard room (33 m²), WC and washbasin (9.5 m²), dining room (21 m²), kitchen (14 m²); then, in the 19th-century section, a service staircase, two bedrooms (12 and 24 m²), bedroom/shower room (19 m²), study (16 m²), entrance hall (6 m²), and two WCs with washbasins.

On the first floor: 10 bedrooms ranging from 17 to 36 m² (ceiling height: 3.4 m), one bathroom, one shower room, two WCs with washbasins, and a WC.

Above: attic space including the former servants’ bedrooms.

Cellar beneath the entire château, including the boiler room and wine cellar.

Harmoniously arranged around the château, the outbuildings comprise:

A/ A caretaker’s house (formerly the lodge), offering 52.8 m² excluding the attic, comprising: kitchen/living room (27 m²), two bedrooms (13 and 9 m²), shower room and WC; three rooms in the attic above; cellar below. The property appears to be in good condition but would benefit from updating: electric radiator heating, four main windows replaced with double glazing in 2024; electrical installation approximately 25 years old, insulation, and mains drainage.

B/ Garage building, with 100 m² per floor.

C/ Stables of 130 m², with attic space above; small store room extending from the building.

G/ An aviary below the château.

The château is attractively positioned at the centre of its grounds, surrounded by a beautifully designed park, notably featuring mature ornamental trees, mostly conifers (cedars, sequoias, spruce, etc.). The vegetation provides the sheltered setting and protection required by a property of this kind. Part of the property is enclosed by walls. To the south and east, the land slopes down towards the river, with the undulating terrain offering views towards the horizon.

The property extends to 3 ha 34 a 89 ca.
