House Loches - 4 bedrooms - 230m²

Ref. 4880: Elegant 1710 former rectory in the heart of a village in the southern Loire Valley

Ideally situated in peaceful surroundings, just a stone’s throw from the church and village centre, this elegant home offers generous living space, both indoors and out, perfectly suited to family life and entertaining guests.

The property enjoys an ideal location, just a few minutes from several characterful towns with shops and amenities, and with quick access to the motorway via Saint-Maure-de-Touraine. Loches is just 20 minutes away, Tours 45 minutes and Poitiers around an hour’s drive.

Built in 1710 and once the parish priest’s residence, this charming former rectory has undergone various alterations and passed through the hands of several owners during its more than three centuries of existence. Today, carefully restored and enhanced by its current owners, it offers a comfortable family home within a remarkable property full of character.

The ground floor opens onto a through hallway with terracotta floor tiles and a cloakroom beneath the stairs. A 28 m² reception room is bathed in light thanks to its dual aspect and features a carved tuffeau stone fireplace. The 23 m² dining room is also dual aspect and has a fireplace.

The carefully restored 15 m² kitchen retains all its original character; the SMEG gas cooker sits harmoniously within the old stone fireplace. A vaulted 16 m² back kitchen, lit by two bull’s-eye windows, completes this area. A 14 m² cloakroom and an 11 m² utility room, formerly home to the bread oven, complete the ground floor.

The first floor has two attractive double bedrooms measuring 30 m² and 23 m², one with a bathroom and WC, the other with a shower room and WC.

The second floor includes a study area on the landing, a 15 m² bedroom currently used as a dressing room, and a fourth bedroom of 16 m² with a shower room and WC.

Finally, a wine cellar beneath the reception room, with access from outside, completes this characterful property.

OUTBUILDINGS:

The former barn, preserved in its original condition, provides extensive vaulted storage space. With openings onto both the courtyard and the street, it could easily be converted into a garage.

Beyond it is a storage room with a mezzanine, accessed from the barn, as well as a second storage area at the gable end of the building, formerly a stable and ideal for garden equipment and tools.

GROUNDS:

Extending over just over 3,800 m², the property has been extensively landscaped, with great care taken to create inviting outdoor living spaces. Various areas for relaxation and socialising provide a lovely setting in which to enjoy the warmer months, with charming spots for al fresco dining and entertaining, while making the most of the views from this elegant home.

The main garden and courtyard are accessed through an imposing gate opening onto the lane, ensuring privacy and security.

Near the rear entrance to the barn is a lower, walled garden, featuring stone walls, an old staircase and the original well.

Alongside the house, a formal French-style garden with flowerbeds and gravel paths harmoniously extends the outdoor living space. At the rear, a delightful, shaded gravel terrace offers a peaceful spot to relax and enjoys open views across the meadow, with the village church as a backdrop.
