Property in Béhuard

Property on the banks of the Loire, set in 1.5 hectares of grounds

Nestled in the heart of an unspoilt natural setting, this characterful property is situated in an exceptional location, directly overlooking the Loire. Built on a vast meadow that extends into landscaped gardens and a wooded area covering a total area of approximately 1.5 hectares, it enjoys a rare location within a UNESCO World Heritage Site, offering a peaceful, sheltered and inspiring living environment.

A former hemp farm, fully restored with great attention to detail, the property offers over 270 m² of living space spread over two floors. The renovation showcases fine materials and exceptional craftsmanship: the roof structure was crafted by Ateliers Perrault Frères, the old fireplaces—one of which comes from a 17th-century priory—are complemented by high-quality parquet flooring, chestnut panelling, natural stone floors and a roof of traditional slate from the Ardoisières d’Angers.

From the moment you step inside, the attention to detail in every aspect becomes apparent. Each material has been carefully selected with a consistent eye for quality, lending the whole property an authentic, warm and timeless atmosphere.

The ground floor offers a spacious living area comprising a dining room and a characterful kitchen, enhanced by a majestic fireplace and opening out onto the outdoors through large bay windows. Three bedrooms, a shower room and separate toilets ensure comfortable living on one level.

Upstairs, accessed via a sculptural staircase, a spacious, light-filled lounge with a fireplace provides an ideal space for entertaining and relaxation. This level also features a large bedroom and an adjoining duplex area, offering numerous possibilities for conversion: an office, a workshop, an additional bedroom or a separate living space. The views over the Loire and the surrounding countryside are remarkable.

Two outbuildings complete this property: a storeroom with an old bread oven and a barn offering great potential for conversion or parking.

Situated on the only inhabited island in the Loire, home to a town designated a ‘Petite Cité de Caractère’, the property enjoys a secluded and sought-after location, just 2 km from a TER station offering connections to Angers in under 15 minutes.

Rare and unique, this residence will appeal to lovers of character properties seeking a unique living environment, combining unspoilt nature and exceptional heritage.
