Property for sale Longue-Jumelles 49160, Maine et Loire
by David Ash
(Longue-Jumelles 49160)
We are reluctantly selling our lovely old house,currently run as a successful gite business,in order to pursue another project.
The whole house has been completely renovated (4 years ago) with new electrics , water and the roofs have been taken off and all the wood work replaced and where possible we have re-used the original slates, to maintain the character.
In the main house there is a huge kitchen and a big salon with access to terraces back and front. There are 4 bed rooms. 2 on the ground floor, one of which is huge.
and a further 2 on the 1st floor. All have private bathrooms.
In the second part of the house, accessed by a stone staircase outside, there is a big kitchen diner and 3 further bedrooms. One has a private bathroom the other 2 share a bathroom.
The house is set around a courtyard of 28mtrs x 26mtrs.
Along the front of the building are the old byres that I have gutted and put in new floors these join, on the other side of the courtyard, to the old barns and stables which we have permission to make into a house and extend in length by 5mtrs.
We have started the work on this,with new floors in place in 2/3rds of it.
There is a relaxation area at the end of the courtyard where there is a
13.5mtr x 4mtr swimming pool.
This area backs onto a 4 acre park with shrubs and trees.
In total there are 7 hectares of land with the property (18 acres approx).
Some of the land is sectioned off into paddocks for my wife's horses.
And another area is left wooded because wild deer live there.
The property is along the banks of the river Authion and has almost a kilometer of river frontage which is private but where our guests can fish.
