About the Property
A former 15th and 17th century presbytery, with an enclosed
garden in a lively village between Le Mans and Angers.

A former 15th and 17th century presbytery, with an enclosed
garden in a lively village between Le Mans and Angers. Once through the gate and past the surrounding wall that separates it from the village, the former presbytery reveals its elegant rubble-stone facade, featuring windows whose frames – like those of the doors – are made of tuffeau stone, some of which are finely carved. The high slate roof is pierced by dormer windows with gables, also made of tuffeau stone. The two-storey building is L-shaped: from the entrance courtyard, you can see the 15th-century main building, of which only the windows were altered in the 17th century. Built around 1650, the newer wing has retained its original layout. It enabled the building to be adapted for use as a retreat centre, following its conversion into a minor seminary of the Order of Saint-Sulpice. Facing north-west towards the landscaped park and south-east towards the former vicarage garden, the building forms a right-angled extension to the 15th-century wing. On the ground floor, the reception rooms are light and spacious with high ceilings. They have retained their original decorative features. There are seven bedrooms and four bathrooms spread across the two floors. The loft is suitable for conversion.
