This rare and exceptional, authentic property comprises a beautifully renovated mansion, a guest house and magnificent outbuildings.
Located in the department of Indre, in the heart of countryside renowned for its natural beauty and game-filled ponds and forests, the property offers total privacy and tranquility, surrounded by 63 hectares of land. Its configuration allows it to accommodate any type of project: a large family home, an ideal setting for events, agricultural, touristic or even fish farming projects, or a combination of all of these.
The main residence is a handsome rectangular structure, facing east-west, with a central building flanked by two pavilions. Its style is typical of the hunting pavilions of the Ancien Régime. The handsome U-shaped courtyard created by the two wings of the outbuilding is the formal entrance to the property, with a well-organised parking space. On the western side of the house is a large, magnificent lawn that slopes down to several remarkable oak trees and the first of a series of beautiful lakes.
The main house covers 232 square meters and offers an inspiring setting for family life, or business events. It comprises the following elements:
Ground floor: entrance hall, main living room with fireplace, dining room, large kitchen with Lacanche stove, convenient laundry room, study, bedroom and en-suite bathroom.
Stairs from the main entrance lead to a large landing and corridor, with four double bedrooms, each with its own bathroom.
The ground floor reception rooms open onto two covered pavilions that double the living space for much of the year.
The guest house has a well-equipped kitchen, dining room, large living room, 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms spread over two floors.
The property's outbuildings offer countless possibilities, including a huge 125 m2 barn and wine cellar, a gym, over 200 m2 of additional barn space, a well-equipped storage room and additional rooms that could be converted into janitor's cottages or additional guest accommodation for conversion.
Equestrian facilities include acres of paddock with horse fencing and water troughs, a standard-sized riding arena, 4 beautiful stables with automatic water troughs, a tack room and horse washing station.
The formal garden has been beautifully designed in 18th-century style, and a permaculture vegetable garden and orchard supply the house for part of the year.
One of the property's most remarkable features is its 63 hectares of fields, forests and lake. Surrounded on all sides by its own land, it suffers no nuisance. The departmental road linking Le Blanc to Blois is just a few minutes away.
The forest is carefully managed, with lanes between spectacular mature trees and dense undergrowth, ideal for wild boar and roe deer to hide and breed. The lakes are professionally managed and the fish farmed. All kinds of water birds find refuge here, including game birds such as ducks.
The property is situated 1 hour's drive from the cities of Tours and Poitiers, with international airports and TGV links to Paris (1 hour), and 45 minutes from the large towns of Châtellerault and Loches with their shops, schools, services and medical facilities.
