Overlooking the former hamlet 'lavoir' (wash house) this restored and improved rural home enjoys a sunny disposition with lovely views over the valley and to the chateau beyond. An ideal holiday home for those wishing a base from which to explore this popular part of the Loire valley with great access to Tours and Le Mans or an environment in which to just relax and unwind.

The recent addition of the hand made conservatory provides an excellent 'all-year-round' room from which to enjoy the garden and sunshine as well as forming an excellent insulation barrier for the rest of the house. The large family kitchen with efficient fitted wood burner is the real heart of this home and with double aspects is light and well appointed. Direct access through to the vaulted dining room/lounge with exposed beamwork and views via the french doors through the conservatory to the garden beyond. A 'snug/lounge' has been part partitioned off from the main lounge (possible later downstairs bedroom if needed) providing access to one of the two upstairs double bedrooms. The bathroom, separate wc, large utility room and workshop complete the ground floor. The main bedroom is found at the top of the second stairs leading from the vaulted lounge and has great 'in-bed' garden views.

Outside the garage with parking for two cars plus a mezzanine area above has twin electric doors and double glazing (a possible future guest lodge perhaps) is a recent addition and in excellent condition. The total plot measures approximately 1900m2 with large graveled and paved gated entrance and parking area, with a raised orchard and lawn area above.

Low maintenance and excellent access to local attractions and amenities make this a super holiday home investment with very good rental potential if needed with plenty to see and do in this popular area.

About Centre

Centre, like its neighbour the Pays de La Loire, is one the most majestic regions of France. Dominated by the Loire river and its chateaux, it is truly a magical part of France. Chartres, Blois and Bourges are some of the region's historic cities. Between Orleans and Tours is where you will see hundreds of magnificent chateaux, and this is where the region was given its name the "Valley of the Kings".

The scenery offers rolling hills, river valleys through to many forests, woodlands and lakes.

There are plenty of activities on offer from chateau tours, cycling, bird-watching, fishing, golf, hot-air ballooning, canoeing to kayaking. Of course the food and wines are excellent.

The area offers a mild climate thanks to the influence of the Loire river. The latitude of the Loire is typically where people say the climate becomes markedly better. The area offers milder winters, warm springs, warm to hot summers along with warm autumns.

Access to the region is good. There are low cost flights and the TGV fast train into Tours. Access to the region by car is also good with excellent motorway access. You can also fly into Paris and drive or take the train from there.
