Hotel particulier in Cholet

18TH-C MANSION, LARGE OUTBUILDING - PARK

Less than a 10-minute walk from the shops and amenities of the town centre, a remarkable 18th-century residence offering approximately 464 m² of living space, accompanied by an elegant outbuilding of around 300 m², nestled within a secluded wooded park of 2,780 m².

Behind its gate, the property reveals a spacious inner courtyard and a characterful residence that has retained many of its original features: period parquet flooring, marble fireplaces, Napoleon III mouldings, panelling, terracotta floor tiles and a majestic oak staircase. The generous proportions and open-plan layout create a refined and light-filled atmosphere, ideal for a family home, a guest house or an exceptional heritage project.

The ground floor comprises beautiful, light-filled reception rooms: a double-height living room with a fireplace and mouldings, a library with south- and west-facing windows, an elegant dining room and a study. The service areas include an authentic kitchen with period cupboards, a utility room, a separate entrance and a service staircase leading to all levels. Two vaulted cellars complete the property.

The first floor comprises several characterful bedrooms featuring marble fireplaces, original parquet flooring and generous proportions. Some have en-suite bathrooms, whilst others have private washbasins or separate bathrooms accessible from the hallways. The moulded ceilings and period decorative features highlight the charm of this historic residence.

The top floor, accessible via the service staircase, comprises five former staff bedrooms with washbasins, a room with a glass roof, and a vast attic with exposed beams, offering significant potential for further conversion.

Opposite the main house, the outbuildings further enhance the property’s potential: a former independent caretaker’s cottage with a living room, bedroom and shower room, former stables, garages, a laundry room, storage rooms and several attics. A rare property offering scope for various lifestyle or commercial projects.

Outside, the wooded grounds offer several areas for relaxation: an inner courtyard, a south-facing terrace, a pleasure garden and tall trees that preserve the privacy of the property despite its immediate proximity to the town centre.

Facing north/south, the property enjoys plenty of natural light, with the main living areas and several bedrooms facing south. The residential neighbourhood, comprising mainly 18th- and 19th-century mansions and townhouses, contributes greatly to the charm and quality of this address.

The property is presented in a state of fair wear and tear and will require renovation work to realise its full potential. The slate roofs with copper flashings are in fair condition, whilst the façades, single-glazed wooden window frames and interior fittings reflect the property’s age. Heating is provided by a Viessmann oil-fired boiler supplying radiators across all three floors. The electrical wiring, which is old, and the sanitary fittings are in a state of use.

A property of rare character, offering authentic charm and remarkable potential for lovers of fine stonework and historic heritage.
