Manor House from the 14th Century Seigneurial Palace

Property Description

Blandouet-Saint-Jean (53): This wonderful manor overlooks the Mayenne countryside, to the west of the Erve valley, in the heart of the historic Maine province. Built on noble land mentioned as early as 1390, this exceptional residence bears over six centuries of history. The feudal families that succeeded one another have enriched the property over time, giving birth to an authentic dwelling where medieval heritage, Renaissance elements, and 17th and 19th century adaptations blend harmoniously. From its privileged position, the property displays elegant gray stone architecture with a slate roof. Recent renovations preserve its character and ensure modern comfort.
To the west, the principal residence of 255 m² of living space reveals vast volumes on two levels, superb old fireplaces, medieval architectural elements, and an elegant Renaissance pavilion punctuating the ensemble. Its impressive southeast-facing façade borders a large garden court that descends gently toward the entry tower of the domain, probably from the 18th century, square in plan with a basement used as a cellar accessible from the east, a room on the ground floor, another on the first floor accessible by a straight staircase backed against the west façade and topped with a pavilion. Perpendicular to the house, to the north, an old stable serves as a dependence.
On the ground floor (cellar level) of the house, beneath the impressive period beams, a corridor serves an office, a shower room and a living room (29 m²). A dining room (29 m²) follows, and finally a large equipped kitchen (41 m²). Each fireplace rivals those in the preceding rooms.
A light staircase climbs from the kitchen to the first floor. There a long corridor opens onto each of the five bedrooms (14, 16, 21, 24 and 25 m² respectively), one with a shower room, some with decorative fireplaces, finally leading to the staircase that descends back to the entrance.
