A Stately 18th Century Property, Typical Of The Loire Valley And Fully Restored, With More Than

A stately 18th-century property, typical of the Loire Valley and fully restored, with more than 6 hectares of woods and pastures, to the north of Tours. A former wine-growing estate, which was completely restored 15 years ago, the property gets its name from local lore, while, once past the gate, the dwelling stands out thanks to its symmetrical appearance and high-quality materials. Rectangular in shape, with approximately 320 m² of floor area and flanked on either side by reconstructed partially glazed pavilions, the main structure features two stories and is topped with a thin slate roof, punctuated by pedimented dormers, whereas the main façade, facing west and cadenced by windows and doors surrounded by ashlar stone, as well as simple cornices, is a testament to the understated classicism of the 18th century as well as the more lavish adjustments made in the 19th and 20th centuries.

As for the property’s former service quarters, they are organised around a main courtyard, while, in the back, the dwelling conceals a garden enclosed by tall verdant hedges and sheltered from view. Featuring a series of patios overlooking the landscape, the latter of which is made up of a large pasture and a wooded hillside, behind the woods, a plateau includes two more pastures and a private landing strip for microlight aircraft, whereas paddocks, as well as an outbuilding for horses, are located behind the former service quarters.
