A Splendid 19th Century House With A Vast Walled Garden Dotted With Trees, Nestled In Le Mans

A splendid 19th-century house with a vast walled garden dotted with trees, nestled in Le Mans near the city centre and train station. The walled plot is located between two streets as part of a row of fine houses with a style typical of Le Mans. This plot is entirely enclosed with tall stone walls. Trees mark the end of the plot. At the front, a vehicle gate leads into a vast front court designed in an old style. It has one outbuilding on one side and a second outbuilding on the other side. This court serves as a parking area. The house has a T-shaped plan. It has a raised ground floor, a first floor and a second floor in the roof space. The magnificent dwelling is crowned with a slate roof. On the street-facing side, you reach the entrance door via a short flight of front steps framed between thick balustrades. The facade is punctuated with a subtle combination of materials that bring out the verticality of the edifice. The quoins and window and door surrounds are made of pale limestone that alternates with red bricks. Guardrails dot the facade too and a wrought-iron canopy shelters the entrance door. A side avant-corps stands out for its tall, sharply pointed gable ends beneath a steep-sloped roof with overhanging edges. The windows are tall and straight-sided. The rear elevation is similar in style. A vast south-east-facing terrace edges it and leads out onto a newly seeded lawn. At the bottom of the garden there is a garage that you enter from another road.
