Manor Saumur - 6 bedrooms - 410m²

Ref 4838: Manor house and numerous outbuildings for sale 12 km from Saumur

This 17th- and 18th-century property is located in the Loire Valley, in the beautiful Saumur area, renowned for its cavalry school, wine production, troglodyte cellars carved into the tuffeau, history and châteaux.

Set at the heart of this lively historic and heritage-rich area, the property nevertheless enjoys real tranquillity, having been built slightly back from the road in a pleasant setting on the outskirts of a small village.

The main shops are nearby in the village. The town of Saumur, a 12-minute drive away, offers a wide range of shops and services, as well as numerous tourist attractions.

Both rural and accessible, this property offers a high-quality heritage asset to be incorporated into a project for a main residence, second home or tourist accommodation. Its charm, history and setting make it a distinctive property, at the heart of an area valued for its authenticity, quality of life and strong Anjou roots.

Built of tuffeau stone to an elongated rectangular plan, with three storeys beneath a slate roof, this elegant manor house has façades featuring refined architectural details: windows with shallow-arched lintels, cyma-moulded cornices and dormers topped with pediments. Outbuildings flank a square courtyard to the north, while to the south there are uninterrupted views across the Anjou countryside.

The property offers approximately 400 m² of living space, arranged as follows:

Ground floor: an entrance hall, from which a handsome schist staircase rises to the first floor, leads on one side to a former kitchen fitted with a remarkable wood-burning range and adjoining a pantry, and on the other to a dining room, a sitting room with a wood-burning stove, a boudoir, a service staircase, a cloakroom and a bedroom with an adjoining shower room.

On this floor, terracotta tiled floors, fireplaces, blond tuffeau walls and old ceiling beams create the characteristic atmosphere of the fine, spacious manor houses of the southern Loire.

First floor: a gallery leads to a bedroom with bathroom and cloakroom, two bedrooms each with a shower room and cloakroom, a winter sitting room, an office, an additional bathroom and a large, self-contained living area with exposed original roof timbers, a kitchen and a wood-burning stove, currently used as a sitting room and games room.

As on the ground floor, the floors are tiled in terracotta and the beams are exposed. Impressive tuffeau and marble fireplaces, topped with ornate overmantels, lend the rooms on this floor a noble character.

Second floor: reached by a handsome wooden staircase with turned balusters, a landing leads to two charming attic bedrooms and a separate cloakroom.

The property has several outbuildings, apparently in good overall condition:

A/ The self-contained accommodation

Extending from the manor house, the self-contained accommodation comprises:

- On one level, a through sitting room with fireplaces fitted with inset stoves and an adjoining kitchen, leading to a bedroom and shower room.

- A succession of other separate rooms, including a former stable converted into a dining room, a kitchen, laundry room, cellar and former bakery, leading to the return wing alongside the old dovecote.

B/ The old dovecote

Remarkable for its architecture, its size and its many nesting holes, the dovecote forms the northern side of the courtyard. It is topped by an openwork lantern and flanked by glazed galleries adjoining an outbuilding wing set at right angles to the manor house. This sumptuous building houses a sitting/dining room and a swimming pool (8 m x 4 m, heated by a heat pump). Its large spaces extend into the adjoining outbuilding behind the dovecote, which it connects to. This also provides a spacious gym and leisure room (spa, sauna, billiards table) and pool house (shower, cloakroom, pool plant room) on the ground floor, and a suite with bedroom and bathroom/cloakroom on the first floor, accessed via a vestibule and an old spiral staircase.

C/ Other outbuildings

Opposite the manor house, three rooms are used as a garage, workshop and woodshed.

D/ A group of buildings

A second courtyard to the north is flanked by a group of buildings which were converted to suit the needs of activities carried out there in the past:

- A former L-shaped barn provides a large reception room (approx. 150 m²) with an impressive monumental tuffeau fireplace and a beautifully showcased roof structure, a professional kitchen and cloakrooms. (Underfloor heating via a gas boiler.)

- Another building comprises two holiday cottages and a large adjoining garage covered with solar panels:

- The first cottage has a sitting room, kitchen, shower room and cloakroom on the ground floor, and a bedroom on the first floor. (Gas boiler heating.)

F/ A hard tennis court.

The manor house stands at the heart of extensive landscaped grounds with mature trees, offering privacy and attractive views across the Anjou countryside. Extending to approximately 4 hectares, the grounds comprise:
