5 Bedroom Chateau

Ref. 4231:remarkable chateau for sale near Nantes.

This beautiful château, also known as the "folie Nantaise", was built in a small commune to the east of Nantes. A quiet alley provides access to the Loire River. The village is a bridge between the north and south of this timelessly charming, world-renowned river.
It's a pleasant place to live, much sought-after by hikers and bikers alike.
This small town of 10,000 inhabitants has retained its village spirit. It offers a wide range of services, including a sports park, cultural center, leisure centers, five schools and a secondary school.
The town has also made a point of preserving its historical heritage, which includes a castle with a remarkable dovecote, listed as a Monument Historique, a Roman bridge, and numerous late 19th-century residences.
The town is within easy reach of the freeway, and can be reached by train in less than 10 minutes to Nantes, and in 20 minutes to Nantes Atlantique airport.

This elegant, fully restored "Nantes folly" dates from the second third of the 18th century. The plans were drawn up by Jean-Baptiste Ceineray, the famous architect of the city of Nantes, after whom a quay is named. The high quality construction is in the classical style, topped by a large triangular pediment pierced by an oculus. The chaining and framing are in tufa stone, with the rest in rendered stone.
In front of the main courtyard, the château is preceded by a courtyard of perfectly restored outbuildings, surrounded by walled parklands.
As you cross the threshold, you are immediately imbued with the soul of this timelessly elegant residence. The immaculate white walls reflect the light that streams in through the tall windows.
Meticulous restoration, carried out with an obvious love of authenticity, has preserved the unique character of this Nantes folly. Exceptional services have brought modernity and comfort to this residence, while preserving its soul.
The surface area spans 410 sqm on three levels.

Two gigantic cedar trees stand proudly like sentinels of time, adding a touch of verticality to the park, which stretches out towards the Loire.
To the right, a formal garden has been laid out, with elegant symmetry, a tribute to the geometric rigour that characterises the classical style.
You can stroll along a path framed by beautiful frames that are home to numerous rosebushes.
