Description

A47973MGO44 - Tucked into the gentle hills of the Nantes vineyards, this 17th-century manor is a living tapestry of history and enchantment. The estate unfolds across 4.17 hectares of meticulously tended parkland, where the air carries the scent of earth and blossoms, and the only soundtrack is the gentle murmur of a spring-fed pond—once a humble lavoir—fed by an eternal spring. Here, time slows, and the world feels both timeless and tenderly alive.
Nestled in the heart of the Loire-Atlantique, a region famed for its Muscadet wines and Vendée War history, this property offers the perfect blend of rural seclusion and urban convenience. Just 20km from Nantes, a vibrant city with TGV rail links to Paris and an international airport, it’s an ideal base for exploring the Pays de la Loire region.A House That Wears Its History Like a Crown
This is no ordinary manor. It is a survivor, its very walls telling the tale of resilience and reinvention. The fire that swept through during the Vendée Wars left its mark in the most poetic way—an asymmetrical silhouette that gives the house its soul-stirring character. Walk through its grand entrance, and you’re stepping into a world where every exposed beam, every ancient fireplace, and every terracotta tile has a story to share.
The 397m² of living space is arranged across three floors, offering a symphony of rooms designed for both grandeur and intimacy. The grand salon, with its monumental fireplace, is a stage for evenings of wine and laughter, while the formal dining room evokes the elegance of lavish banquets. The separate kitchen, a modern addition, blends seamlessly with the historic fabric, offering the comforts of today without compromising the home’s timeless charm.
Upstairs, eight bedrooms promise restful retreats, each with its own personality. Exposed beams crisscross ceilings, and ancient terracotta tiles whisper underfoot, their worn surfaces bearing the patina of centuries. The cellar, cool and vast, waits patiently to cradle wines, preserves, or the simple treasures of everyday life.

About Leggett Immobilier, France

La Maison du Chapitre, 24340 La Rochebeaucourt, France

Leggett Immobilier is a family business that was started 20 years ago and founded on the genuine belief that French estate agency could be done better – today this still holds true. Indeed, this belief was validated last year when we were crowned "Best Estate Agency in France" at a prestigious awards ceremony in London.

All of our agents live and work in France and have excellent local knowledge, covering both their area and local property prices. Clients are given a single point of contact who is dedicated to helping them make the right decision and to be by their side throughout the purchase process. Our in-house contracts team are experienced in dealing with local notaires and have overseen the purchase of over €1bn of French property - they will ensure that the sale progresses smoothly and our fully bilingual team will guide you through all legal documentation.

With over 600 agents spread across the country we like to think that we are now the leading international estate agency in France, last year around one in ten of all UK buyers of French property trusted us to help them. However, the company’s size and success has not altered the fact that we are a family business who pride ourselves on professionalism and friendliness.

Local knowledge is invaluable when buying in a foreign country. Leggett provides this knowledge - nearly all of our agents have lived through a move themselves and have been trained to deal with any issue or question that might arise. This training includes a three day, residential, course, further "advanced" training and access to our head office team who keep abreast of all changes in French property law and legislation.

It is this, unique, “hand-holding” approach that has helped build the foundations of our company. No other agency in France takes such care of a client before, during and after a property is purchased.

The system for buying a property in France can be complex but is regarded as being one of the safest in the world – the French like "red tape" but not much surprises us now.

With over 20 years of experience, we have the knowledge to aid with legal matters, help with finance, and even ensure that you have all the essential services connected when you make the move to your new home.

Leggett Immobilier - local knowledge you can trust.
