About this Property

This magnificent and grand château, recently the subject of a sympathetic renovation by local artisans, sits majestically in its own large grounds, on the edge of a small village in the Haut-Anjou, surrounded by peace and quiet and with beautiful views across the local countryside.

On the ground floor from West to East there is a chapel with stunning wall paintings and stain glass windows, a library, large living room, an imposing entrance hall, with the main staircase, a dining room, a magnificent kitchen, back kitchen, gallery, laundry room, smaller cosy dining room and study both giving access to a bathroom, toilet. The ceiling height of the reception rooms is 6.5m. The volumes are impressive and the rooms are beautifully proportioned,. The architectural quality as well as the quality of the restoration are exceptional. Rare are the properties that have benefited from such a restoration that has not taken anything away from the charm and authenticity of the original château. On the 1st floor: are 4 superb bedrooms equipped with beautiful bathrooms, wardrobes and toilets. There is also a sitting room on the second floor. Everything is luminous, well distributed and perfectly arranged. The quality of the bathroom fittings is superb. On the 2nd floor: attic where technical elements of the recently installed central heating are connected.

Attached to the chateau :
On the ground floor: Old part of the chateau including 2 reception rooms and an orangery.
On the first floor: 5 bedrooms with bathroom, decoration and electricity have not been redone.
On the second floor: 6 bedrooms with bathroom.
5 garages

A caretaker’s house at the entrance of the property, the structure has been redone but not the interior decoration. 2 rooms.

This wonderful chateau boasts its own a beautiful park planted with lovely trees. The surroundings of the chateau have been carefully laid out with gardens, ponds, and the vegetable garden has also been restored to give this place something magical. The gardens and land total just over 25 acres.

A small town with shops and restaurants is less than 10km away and the city of Angers is 50km away with its TGV station serving Paris in one hour. This is a rare and wonderful piece of French history as well as a welcoming and cosy family home. Viewing is highly recommended.

Testimonials

    Testimonial by Stuart and Lucy Binns

    As most people know, buying or selling a property is always complicated, especially if the process takes place across two countries.We recently sold our second home in Southwest France during a time when the market was not particularly vibrant. It was a difficult experience as it was a property we were very fond of.The whole process was handled by Judith Whitlow, who took care of the sale and of us with great aplomb.Not only was the process an emotionally demanding one, it was also subject to huge complexities – legal, technical, financial, and procedural.Judith’s fluency in French and English was vital, but her knowledge of all the myriad details, from the workings of fosse septiques to the nuances of tax law (in both countries) made a dangerous administrative minefield much easier to negotiate.In short, she guided us along the entire journey with great professionalism and personal empathy.We couldn’t recommend her, or Beaux Villages, more highly.
