French property in Pays de la Loire - Sarthe - Maison Bourgeoise on the outskirts of a chateau town just 30 mins south of Le Mans.

The house is structurally in condition and the loft space is already boarded making the addition of two further bedrooms an attractive proposition. It would need redecorating and refreshing, but all the basics are there as well as some lovely character features such as the fireplaces and lovely wooden staircase.

On the ground floor there is an entrance hall leading to a door to the back courtyard. On the left there is a very large living room with beautiful tuffeau stone fireplace, to the right another large room, currently being used as a bedroom but which could be combined with the small kitchen area to provide a large kitchen-dining area. There is also a downstairs shower room.

The winding wooden stairs lead up to the first floor, where there are a further 3 bedrooms – all a good size – a separate WC with hand basin and a bathroom. There are shutters at the windows which are mostly double-glazed.

The stairs then go up to the loft space which at approximately 70m2 could provide an additional 2 en-suite bedrooms.

Outside there is an old timber office, a driveway with gates which leads down to a very large garage/barn and under the house is a cellar. The outside space surrounding the house is at the moment laid to tarmac, but this could be converted to a lovely courtyard at the back and a fenced garden at the front, still leaving room for parking.

Due to it's roadside location and it's proximity to Le Mans and neighbouring chateau this property could offer good B&B potential. It sits on a plot of 583m2.
