Description

Nestled in Descartes, the birthplace of the famous philosopher, surrounded by fields and the never-ending countryside of the Loire Valley, we invite you for a showing of this stunning 19th century manor with its guest house and numerous outbuildings.



Featuring 12 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms, the 5,600 sq.ft. home is stunning in its original details, such as large windows, crown mouldings, wainscoting, hardwood floors and elegant fireplaces. It features a large kitchen, a butler's pantry, 3 gorgeous livng rooms, a dining room and a wine cellar.



The guest house is tucked away at the other end of the property, enjoying privacy and a potential for a vacation rental. Several outbuildings could also be converted to accomodate more guests.



The property of 7 acres features a long, tree-lined driveway, a stone wall surrounding most of the property, a beautiful gate, a well, and a landscaped garden.



The home has been cared for by the same family for decades. It needs some TLC, but offers endless possibilities and a unique lifestyle.
