Large well proportioned home
* Pool (18m x 5.5m)
* Short distance from Langeais
* Modern home with character
* Large plot

Built in the 1980s in the traditional 'Touraine' style this high pitched slate roofed, white stoned building could easily be mistaken externally for being much older. A bespoke design with the focus around 'family space' this home offers 6 bedrooms over the 3 floors as well as separate guest accommodation. On the outskirts of Langeais with all the trappings of the Loire Valley on your doorstep.

Front and rear gated entrances lead you along the graveled drive with lawn either side to a choice of parking areas, one by the main house and the other by the guest lodge. The front of the main house (west facing) overlooks the large pool with terrace area, electric cover and solar panel heating, a focal point and instant indication of the lifestyle that this property and environment offers. Once through the front door and into the main entrance hall your eyes are drawn instantly upwards to the vaulted ceiling with mezzanine and balconies above. To the right we have the main lounge (54m2), triple aspect, 'herring bone parquet' floor, feature fireplace and direct access to the south facing sun terrace. Passing the downstairs wc and numerous storage cupboards we discover the master bedroom with marble private bathroom. The well equipped spacious kitchen overlooks the pool area and leads directly to a dining room. Completing the downstairs we have the converted former garage space used more recently as a winter garden with plenty of natural light for the plants, 'gardeners' shower and second set of stairs to the first floor.

From the main hall the stairs lead to a good sized open mezzanine area with wc and access to the 'music room', 46m2 of triple aspect room used for entertaining but could also be a games room, cinema, etc. etc. 3 bedrooms and a family bathroom complete the 2nd floor with stairs leading up again to the pitch of the roof with another 2 bedrooms, the possibility to add a wc and an attic room.

Outside we have a plot of just under 1 acre, electric gates, automatic watering system from the well, the pump room with south facing solar panels on the roof, a large covered 'party room' (ideal for entertaining) with 'cold store', garage and guest lodge offering: kitchen/diner/lounge and wc on the ground floor and 2 bedrooms and possibility for a bathroom upstairs.

Located on one of the main roads leading into Langeais putting all amenities within a short distance and excellent access to the rest of the Loire Valley and beyond. An ideal family home with the potential for B&B style guest and maybe a separate gite if required.

About Centre

Centre, like its neighbour the Pays de La Loire, is one the most majestic regions of France. Dominated by the Loire river and its chateaux, it is truly a magical part of France. Chartres, Blois and Bourges are some of the region's historic cities. Between Orleans and Tours is where you will see hundreds of magnificent chateaux, and this is where the region was given its name the "Valley of the Kings".

The scenery offers rolling hills, river valleys through to many forests, woodlands and lakes.

There are plenty of activities on offer from chateau tours, cycling, bird-watching, fishing, golf, hot-air ballooning, canoeing to kayaking. Of course the food and wines are excellent.

The area offers a mild climate thanks to the influence of the Loire river. The latitude of the Loire is typically where people say the climate becomes markedly better. The area offers milder winters, warm springs, warm to hot summers along with warm autumns.

Access to the region is good. There are low cost flights and the TGV fast train into Tours. Access to the region by car is also good with excellent motorway access. You can also fly into Paris and drive or take the train from there.
