Nestled into the countryside of north Touraine close to the border of the Sarthe, a good selection of local market towns a short distance away provides ample choice of shops, restaurants, schools, etc. An idyllic retreat to enjoy the benefits of rural life this popular area has to offer with the option of equestrian orientation.

Perched with commanding views over the paddock and a meandering stream along the property's edge, two 1980s houses, extensively modernized, offer spacious and comfortable living for an extended family or guests. Each self-contained home boasts Jacuzzis, saunas, and private parking. A pool house serves as a "pleasure" hub between the houses, creating memorable moments. A partially converted barn remains unfinished.

The first house, approximately 225sqm over two floors, features a front-to-back lounge with a bespoke glass staircase, a light-filled dining room, a well-appointed kitchen, and five bedrooms.

The second house, located to the right of the electric gates, offers around 120sqm over two floors. Its spacious lounge diner, kitchen, and three bedrooms, along with a courtyard with a Jacuzzi and sauna, offer ample living space.

The previous owner added an impressive equestrian facility, featuring six individual stables (3m x 3m) with automatic water fountains, a storage room, tack room, kitchen (14sqm), a hot water horse shower, a WC, and an indoor sand arena (40m x 20m) with raised viewing and speakers. The current owner has replaced the sand training pen with a removable hard-standing multi-sports pitch.

Between the two houses, there's an 8.3m wide and 1.3m deep heated hexagonal plunge pool, a sun deck, and a 28m² conservatory pool house with a bar.
The property also includes a double garage (41sqm) with an attic, an old underground wine cellar near the pond, and a partially converted 90sqm former barn (requires finishing) offering a living room (75sqm), a ground floor bedroom, an upstairs shower room, a mezzanine office, a WC, and three bedrooms.

The property spans 3.5 hectares (8.5 acres), with most of it enclosed and adjoining. Upon entering through the electric gates, you'll find hard paths leading to the houses, garage, and equestrian facilities.
The fenced paddock covers the majority of the land, sloping gently down to a stream at the lower end, which is fishable (trout, etc.) and helps maintain the pond's water level (400m²). There are ample parking areas, and the paddock can be closely maintained for a manicured appearance if desired.
