DESCRIPTION

Right in the centre of Saumur, a historic town in the Loire Valley, this 15th-century mansion house of around 300 m² offers a peaceful setting, protected from view by a gate giving access to an inner courtyard opening onto a landscaped garden.

The property comprises three separate parts:

A former 19th century schoolhouse of approx.

100 m², whose soul the owners have managed to preserve and which is currently used as a charming gîte.

This single-storey dwelling comprises a living room with 4 m high ceilings, an open-plan kitchen with a wood-burning stove, three bedrooms and a shower room.

A heated indoor swimming pool located in an adjoining 22 m² former classroom.

A storeroom and a large original courtyard overlooking the garden add to the building's charm.

On the ground floor of the mansion house, a modern, recently renovated and refurbished flat of approx.

60 m² (646 sq ft).

It comprises an entrance hall, a lounge/bedroom, a kitchen with a 15th century fireplace and a bread oven, a shower room and a toilet.

Currently rented out on a seasonal basis (PMR standards), it has independent access.

There is also a wine cellar and another cellar under the garden.

The main dwelling is accessed via a splendid original stone spiral staircase, which leads to the first floor.

The landing leads to a vast 48 m² dining room with solid parquet flooring and high ceilings, followed by an open-plan kitchen with a large technical island.

Two French windows open onto a garden-facing terrace, bringing light and tranquillity to everyday life.

Following on from this is a cosy 50 m² lounge with old terracotta floor tiles and an 18th century fireplace with trumeau.

The beams, adorned with polychrome paintings dating from between 1590 and 1610, give the room a rare atmosphere, combining history and character.

The second floor has four bedrooms, including a 40 m² master suite, as well as a shower room and WC.

On the third and top floor, two superb attics of around 100 m², laid on authentic terracotta floor tiles and supported by roof timbers dating from the spring of 1460, offer 6-metre high ceilings.

This remarkable space has considerable conversion potential, with insulation work already under way.

This is an ideal setting for a family, combining the comfort of everyday life with the dynamism of shops, boutiques, restaurants, etc.

The property generates rental income from the gîte in the school and its swimming pool, as well as from the recently opened ground-floor flat (€32,000/year).
