Ref.4110 BEAUTIFUL 19th CENTURY CHATEAU IN ANJOU
This delightful 19th century property and its parkland are located in the Maine Anjou countryside, forming a wonderfully homogenous estate.
A remarkable example of an architectural style that was not very common at the time, the castle overlooks its surroundings and seems to be suspended above a green setting.
Situated in the heart of the Angevin heritage, a land of numerous tourist opportunities, and not far from the town of Angers, this castle benefits from an ideal position both in terms of its proximity to essential amenities; it is 4 km (2.5 miles) from a charming village providing the main services and shops; and in terms of its accessibility from the motorway/railway axes serving the metropolises and professional areas of Paris, Le Mans, Angers and Nantes.
Set back from all nuisances without being isolated, the absolute charm and poetry that emanates from this building will seduce those who love timeless, modernist architecture while providing them with comfort and an idyllic environment.

Built on four levels of ashlar and stone rubble under slate according to the plans of the architect Adrien Dubos, who was largely inspired by the achievements of the 17th and 18th centuries, this castle is one of the very last architectural jewels of the classical style to have been built.
With a surface area of approx. 1,000 sqm, it features a central three-bay forebuilding to the north-east, adorned with an imposing main building accessed by a monumental staircase and a marble staircase with tufa stone railings. To the south-west, the facade features a central polygonal body in the forefront of the dwelling, surrounded at its base by a vast terrace bordered by splendid tufa stone railings.
The facades are harmoniously provided with numerous openings adorned with beautifully decorated tufa jambs, lintels and spandrels, ensuring optimal light everywhere.
A slate roof adorned with pretty pedimented dormer windows and beautiful tufa fireplaces tops this property of approx. 1,000 sqm, which is distributed as follows

Ground floor: Superb entrance hall decorated with marble columns followed by a gallery leading to a main living room, a small living room, a dining room, a pantry, a study, a kitchen, a small dining room and a bedroom. These rooms are adorned with beautiful decorative elements, marble fireplaces, antique parquet floors, high woodwork and moulded ceilings.
First floor : A monumental solid wood staircase leads to a large landing. In one corner, a high library and its reading area, then a huge gallery leads on either side to four double bedrooms, a master suite, a single bedroom and a linen room. There are also many decorative elements, beautiful parquet floors, beautiful marble fireplaces, woodwork and ornate ceilings.
Second floor : A long gallery leads to six bedrooms, a suite and a possible attic.
Garden level: organised as a pleasant flat, it comprises a vast living room with an open-plan kitchen, four bedrooms, two bathrooms, a boiler room, a shed, a workshop and a laundry room.

The property has several outbuildings in good condition and close to the chateau as follows:
A gîte housing two flats of approx. 110sqm each, well equipped and heated either by electric convector heater and wood stove, or by oil-fired boiler, (individual sanitation system). The gite building also contains an old stable and a tack room.
Three annexes, workshops and sheds, one of which has been converted into a chapel.
A heated swimming pool of 12m x 8m and its pool house.
A garden shed used as a shelter for outdoor maintenance equipment.

Beautiful romantic English-style park of about 37 acres (15hectares) decorated with majestic trees, some of which are centuries old (oak, cork oak, lime, chestnut, cedar, Douglas fir, pine, camellia, rhododendron, etc.) and numerous fruit trees (quince, apricot, pear, apple, cherry, vine, raspberry, etc.)
Stabilised paths lead easily to all parts of the park and in particular to the vast 4000m² vegetable garden, entirely enclosed by walls and fed by a well that also serves other water points in the park. A second well is not functional.
From any point in the park, the views of the surrounding countryside are varied and inspiring. There is no doubt that we are in an exceptional place.
