Villa De Nocfond — Private Estate In The Heart Of The Loire Valley, France

Nestled within seven hectares of lush parkland, century-old trees, and pristine countryside, Villa de Nocfond is an extraordinary private estate in the Val de Loire — one of France’s most celebrated and protected landscapes. Just 174 km from Paris and moments from the A71 motorway, this historic yet fully modernized residence offers a seamless blend of grandeur, comfort, and the timeless art of French rural living — and arrives as a complete, income-generating hospitality operation, ready to run from day one.

Originally built in 1903 and meticulously restored in 2022, the 420 m² main villa has been entirely reimagined with reversible air conditioning throughout, superior insulation, and interiors of refined elegance. Nine beautifully appointed bedrooms — six with en-suite bathrooms — accommodate more than 18 guests in effortless style, while the Royal Salon, open-plan kitchen and dining areas, and a stylishly appointed bar set the stage for memorable gatherings. A grand fireplace anchors the main living areas with warmth and character, while large terraces and expansive reception spaces make the property equally suited to intimate family weekends and lavish celebrations.

The wellness offering is exceptional: a heated swimming pool, jacuzzi, sauna, massage room, and fully equipped gym ensure every need is met without leaving the estate. Outdoors, a 1.9-hectare lake with a private peninsula, a charming lakeside guinguette, a vegetable garden, and a bonfire area complete a setting designed for total immersion in nature. Four underground rivers and two natural springs sustain the gardens naturally. Parking for up to 25 vehicles — 20 open and 5 covered — speaks to the scale and practicality of the estate.

Beyond the main house, the property includes a 300 m² partially renovated former farmhouse with significant development potential, building rights for an additional 90 m² dwelling, and a separate 75 m² cottage — currently a fitness and storage space — that could easily be converted into further guest accommodation. A self-contained cottage with two bedrooms, a master suite with walk-in closet, and its own kitchen and living room with fireplace completes the offering.

The surrounding Sologne region is a haven for lovers of outdoor pursuits: golf, fishing, clay pigeon shooting, cycling, and country walks are all within easy reach. The Loire Valley’s legendary châteaux, world-class vineyards, and artisanal gastronomy are just minutes away, making Villa de Nocfond not merely a residence, but a gateway to la vie à la française at its finest.

A Rare Turnkey Opportunity

Villa de Nocfond is offered as a single, complete acquisition: the estate in its entirety together with the established commercial operation built around it. Rather than buying a property and building a venture from the ground up, the incoming owner inherits a business already positioned, proven, and trading — with the seasons, the systems, and the clientele already in place.

The acquisition includes:

Brand name and commercial identity
Existing website and online presence
Social media accounts and established community
Professional photography and video content library
Client database and commercial contacts
Established market positioning and reputation
Operational know-how and business concept
Developed calendar of events, retreats, and experiential programs
Commercial documentation and promotional materials
Relationships with suppliers, partners, and collaborators
Owner support and guidance throughout the transition period
Significant potential for further development in hospitality, events, wellness, and gastronomy

Held as a refined private retreat, operated exactly as it stands, or grown into something larger still — Villa de Nocfond arrives complete. The vision, the infrastructure, and the business are already there.
