Ref.4352 : French house for sale in Centre-Val de Loire region.
Ideally located in a commanding position on the high ground overlooking the valley and the popular town of Vendome. This charming family residence has excellent access to all local amenities found in Vendome along with the high speed train link to Paris in 45 minutes.

This well appointed estate includes the main residence, an impressive « Maison de Maitre », a recently renovated guest lodge, a former guardian’s house (requiring renovation), storage hanger, former stables and tack room and garaging all set within a well maintained sizeable private park with pool and views over the valley.

The Maison de Maître offers circa 300sqm over its 3 floors.

The ground floor: With harlequin floor tiles and 3m+ ceiling heights throughout. The distribution is logical and typical of this period with a central hall corridor running from front to back. To the right is the lounge of 30sqm, a charming double aspect room with views over the gardens, feature fireplace and exposed beams. Across the hall way through the double pair of doors is the dining hall, another double aspect room of similar size to the lounge with direct access to the kitchen. The kitchen of 16sqm is also double aspect with a separate boiler/laundry room and direct access to the rear of the property. The rear lobby has a door to the rear, a wc, stairs to the upper floors and opposite the kitchen is the office/study, 10sqm double aspect with built in library shelving.

The first floor: equally well distributed around a central landing area. There are four bedrooms of differing sizes, three of which are double aspect and the master suite (25sqm) has ensuite private bathroom. The remaining bedrooms all have washing facilities (sink) within. There is a family bathroom off the landing along with a separate WC.

The second floor: the converted attic area offers a large (25sqm) main room with separate bedrooms of 10sqm either side.

The outbuildings comprise :

- The guest lodge, used by the extended family when they came to stay, has been renovated and improved and today provides comfortable accommodation to a modern standard (heating, double glazing, etc.).
The ground floor: a large 32sqm tiled lounge and dining room with stairs to the upper floor, fitted kitchen of 16sqm with direct access to the outside, wc, family bathroom with bath and shower and main bedroom of 24sqm.
The first floor: Three rooms used as bedrooms and a shower room.

- The former guardian’s lodge has not been renovated but once done would provide extra independent accommodation throughout the ground floor. The current layout offers lounge, kitchen, shower room and two bedrooms.

To the rear of the main house is a large storage hanger with kennel and workshop. Parallel to the rear of this hangar is the wood store, former stable block with tack room (10sqm) and 2 stables (27sqm total …not used today). To the right of the entrance drive is a triple garage block (6mx4m x3).

Almost 3.5 hectares (nearly 9 acres) of private park with mature trees, courtyard area with parking, lawns and paddock. The buildings are ideally located in the centre of the plot width providing a private and secluded setting away from the neighbours on either side. The pool and “play area” is positioned to benefit from the stunning views over the valley. There is a portion of the land that holds the potential to construct.
Note: The neighbouring plot of 1 hectare (2.5acres) is available to purchase if desired. Roughly half of this additional plot has the potential to construct.
