Description
At the bottom of the 3,400-hectare rolling and highly varied domanial forest of Sillé le Guillaume, this house nestles in the greenery of its trees, overlooking pastures and the horizon of the Normandie-Maine Regional Natural Park. Hikers will set off from the house and soon find themselves deep in the wooded canopy, discovering the hills and valleys of this massif. one can also opt for the plains and take to the hedged paths - the GR track is at your door!
Nature reigns supreme here, and the meadows are rich in a variety of beautiful grass that produce fragrant hay. The farm covers 6.47 hectares with more than 6.2 hectares of paddocks fenced with solid chestnut posts doubled on the road side, or with light posts that can be adjusted to suit the horses' rotations. Two large sheds (20 and 30m2) and a 15m2 shed provide shelters, while the tall leafy hedges provide shade and shelter from the wind. The meadows are not treated, nearly organic and, they are simply mown, providing self-sufficiency for 6 horses.
This charming house is an unusual little cocoon nestling in its wooded, flower-filled grounds. It spans 135 m2 and has 4 bedrooms, two of which have sloping ceilings that could be split into two parts to create a gîte. It is heated with wood from the wood burner and with an oil burner. It has a sound cellar and two attics that could be converted, one of which is an extension of the first floor and the other has access to the outside. Fibre optics connect you to the world, 8 solar panels are installed on a section of the roof and the property has two entrances. The terrace, set between the two wings of the house and adorned with magnificent hydrangeas, offers a peaceful and serene space for summer breakfasts and dinners overlooking the garden.
An old barn, tempered in both summer and winter, provides shelter for fodder and equipment storage, and houses two beautiful loose boxes with automatic drinking troughs, with very practical direct access to the manure pit. The attic could be converted. At the back of the building is a hard-standing parking area for a van and lorry.
his is a pretty, well thought-out grassland property that is easy to manage on its own, with a pleasant, bright house, just one occasional neighbour and a few scattered houses at a distance, making it ideal for a private individual or a small guest house in the meadow. Conveniences are 4 km away in Sillé, where there is also a train station with several trains a day (30 minutes) to Le Mans, giving easy access to Paris in 1 hour by TGV.
