Le Lude, Sarthe, Pays de la Loire, France

(PRIVATE SALE)
This lovingly restored 300m² residence features a striking oak-framed barn extension and is accessed via a picturesque 3km rural lane winding through lush woodlands. The original stone farmhouse has been exquisitely renovated, maintaining its authentic charm. Inside, the ground floor boasts a welcoming hallway, a bathroom with an independent shower, and a spacious lounge area adorned with two feature fireplaces and elegant travertine floors. One fireplace includes a log burner with a back boiler, providing a desirable level of self-sufficiency by heating the entire property and supplying hot water using wood sourced from the property's own forest.

The impressive 45m² living room flows into a 60m² vaulted space, featuring luxurious beams, glass doors, and travertine floors, which leads to a traditional hand-painted bespoke kitchen with access to a terrace. The 19th-century oak barn conversion creates a bright and airy atmosphere, capturing sunlight from dawn to dusk. A bridge on the first floor connects the stone and oak sections, leading to a stunning 50m² master suite with French doors opening onto a south-facing balcony. This suite includes a spacious 35m² bedroom, a dressing room, and an ensuite bathroom complete with a freestanding bath and independent shower. Additionally, there are two more double bedrooms, a mezzanine/bedroom, and a family bathroom.

No detail has been overlooked in terms of insulation, warmth, and comfort. The property also includes a single garage with a storage area above. Set centrally within its 3-hectare plot (7.4 acres), this magnificent home is a beautiful oasis of tranquillity.

For those seeking even more space, an additional 1.5 hectares (3.7 acres) of woodland is available for purchase, offering an even more expansive slice of paradise.
This delightful property would be ideal for anyone who enjoys being surrounded by nature.
