Description
Located in Villandry, an iconic village of the Loire Valley listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site for its château and remarkable gardens, this family home built between 1983 and 1988 offers approximately 240 sqm of living space on a divisible wooded garden of 1,605 sqm. The setting is residential, green and quiet, while remaining within immediate reach of shops, schools and transport links.
Interior layout
On the ground floor (approx. 131 sqm), an entrance hall leads to a fitted kitchen, a dining room, a lounge and a living room, creating a vast and welcoming living space. This level also features a bedroom, a shower room, a separate WC, and a utility room of nearly 19 sqm — an ideal layout for working from home or for an additional ground-floor bedroom.
Upstairs (approx. 109 sqm), the layout is designed for family life: a master bedroom with dressing room and direct access, a bathroom, a separate WC, and five additional bedrooms accessed via two distinct landings. A 17 sqm playroom landing completes the upper floor and could easily be repurposed (teen space, gym, studio, shared office, or fitted as a third bathroom).
In total, the house comprises 9 main rooms including 7 bedrooms, a rare configuration offering many possibilities: large family, guest accommodation, home-based profession, or conversion into two separate dwellings.
