Ref.4538 : Authentic 18th C. Presbytery near Mayenne
245 km from Paris, 12 km from the town of Mayenne and 700 metres from a peaceful village, stands this former 18th century presbytery. Set away from the village, in the middle of the countryside between hills and valleys, it is an authentic presbytery despite its distance from the church, whose bell tower can be seen towering not far away.
The historic town of Mayenne, which has been awarded the ‘Pays d'art et d'histoire’ label, has a population of 12,000 and boasts an 11th-century castle, as well as a full range of shops and services (hospital, doctors, chemists, supermarkets, secondary schools, etc.). Laval (TGV and motorway) is a 35-minute drive away. The countryside around the town is beautiful and undulating, as evidenced by the nearby Alps Mancelles and the department's highest peak: Mont des Avaloirs. There are many fine tourist attractions and historic sites within easy reach in Nord Mayenne, including the Notre Dame de Pontmain basilica, the village of Lassay-les-Châteaux, which has been awarded the ‘Petite cité de caractère’ label, and the Gallo-Roman town of Jublains.

This former 18th-century presbytery was built of granite and covered in slate. A wing has been added as an extension to the main building. The east-west-facing building spans a floor surface area of approx. 240 sqm (excluding the 83 sqm detached attic) and comprises :

First floor : a wide corridor (13.3 sqm) leads to 3 bedrooms (24, 17.6 and 10.6 sqm), 2 shower rooms, a bathroom with toilet and a separate toilet; in the wing, a bedroom (18.1 sqm) and a bathroom with toilet.
Above : an insulated 83.7 sqm attic; in the wing, an attic bedroom (15.6 sqm) and a bathroom with toilet.
