Timeless 15th Century Manor With 3.5 Hectare Lake And 18.7 Hectare Estate

About the Property

An exceptional late 15th–early 16th century manor, meticulously restored and listed in its entirety on the French Supplementary Inventory of Historic Monuments (ISMH), set within an expansive 18.7-hectare estate featuring a serene 3.5-hectare private lake. Located in Eastern Mayenne, this noble residence offers a harmonious blend of historical elegance and modern comforts, just 25 km from a TGV station providing swift access to Paris in approximately 1 hour and 15 minutes. The manor unfolds over 380 square meters, showcasing a rich tapestry of history within its granite walls. The entrance is through an original granite spiral staircase tower, leading to a welcoming salon adorned with a monumental fireplace, a convivial kitchen, and generous bedrooms featuring carved fireplaces and terracotta tiles. A unique bathroom retains a functional fireplace, while a breathtaking cathedral-like room with chestnut-beamed framework houses a private study and library. A secret stairway carved into the stone leads to a former watch room, a testament to the manor's storied past. The estate also boasts remarkable outbuildings with significant potential. To the east, a fully restored 370 square meter lodge serves as an atelier and office, featuring a vast open-plan space with a Louis XIV marble fireplace and wide glass openings. A stone barn shelters the boiler and wood reserves, while former pigsties have been transformed into a charming workshop. Additionally, a large outbuilding with a garage for two cars and ample storage areas is in excellent structural condition, allowing for future conversion. The surrounding 18.7-hectare estate is a natural haven, with landscaped parkland and woodland enveloping the manor. The centerpiece is the tranquil 3.5-hectare lake, inviting leisurely strolls and contemplation. A traditional vegetable garden, an orchard, and a thoughtfully designed parking area nestled in a hornbeam alley enhance this idyllic setting.
