Ref 4809: Manor house with guest rooms and a reception hall set in 7.9-hectare grounds near Troyes. This manor house is situated on the outskirts of a village, just five minutes from the A5 motorway junction, on the road leading to the charming little town of Châteauvillain. The River Aube runs alongside the property on one side, its current more brisk than tranquil. At the far end of the grounds, an old poplar grove traces fine vertical lines against the horizon. Beyond the river, the view stretches far into the distance, taking in gently rolling countryside, bordered by the wooded fringe that looms in the distance. The place exudes a delightful atmosphere steeped in bourgeois classicism, evoking those hushed Sundays of yesteryear, when customs were still carefully observed. This imposing residence, like a stone vessel moored on the banks of the Aube, is currently in good condition. It now awaits an ambitious project, in a strategic region at the crossroads of Champagne and Burgundy, on a route linking the north with more southerly horizons. This property comprises 21 rooms, including 11 bedrooms, spread across four areas within a single building, with a total floor area of approximately 850 sqm. On the left is the residential section (identifiable by the modern door). On the ground floor, it comprises an entrance hall, a dining room and a kitchen. The upper floors comprise an office in a hallway, three bedrooms and two shower rooms, as well as a master suite with an en-suite bathroom and a walk-in wardrobe. This living area, designed as a true ‘home within a home', is separate from the guest accommodation, as well as the garage and workshops (basketry). The area housing the guest rooms and reception opens onto a French-style billiard room, facing an elegant fireplace adorned with a carved wooden lintel. This room leads into a kitchen steeped in history, where it is said that Paul Bocuse once worked: his name appears above the door, whilst a collection of pots and pans keeps his memory alive. The tour continues, culminating in the true heart of the property: a former drawing room of remarkable proportions, extended by a veranda offering a pleasant view of the grounds. Featuring a 19th-century fireplace, this room now hosts receptions, particularly weddings. Finally, this space is equipped with separate toilet facilities for men and women, designed to accommodate large numbers of visitors. Upstairs, the first section comprises five bedrooms, two shower rooms and two bathrooms. A second section, with an atmosphere imbued with old-world charm, includes two further bedrooms and a bathroom. One of these bedrooms, a truly unique room, stands out for its four fully painted walls, creating an immersive setting where wild boars, stags and does seem to watch over the property from the early hours of the morning. Finally, a staircase leads to two attics, one of which boasts high ceilings. The third section of the building, which houses the garage, comprises two rooms with unfinished floors on the ground floor, as well as two further floors to be converted, including an attic. The fourth section comprises the old mill, known locally as ‘la vannerie', which has retained all its equipment from the last century, as if frozen in time, ready to be brought back to life. On the ground floor, there is a large garage and a kitchen opening out onto both the grounds and a small canal designed to supply water to the mill. The upper floors offer, subject to some renovation work, excellent potential for conversion, allowing for the creation of a family home comprising up to six bedrooms, two bathrooms and two stacked attics. The outbuildings cover a total area of approximately 3,500 sqm. They comprise: A/ A garage Adjacent to the main building is a garage covering an area of approximately 500 sqm. B/ The accommodation building Covering an area of approximately 1,500 sqm, this reception and accommodation building comprises five dormitories, toilet facilities, a kitchen with a dining area and a storage space. C/ A former orangery D/ A garden shed The property comprises approximately 7.9 hectares (19.5 acres) of land, including plots situated upstream of the River Aube, inland, as well as on the other side of the road leading to Chateauvillain. The grounds consist of extensive lawns and a pleasant wooded area. The property also features a quick-surface tennis court. A local path runs alongside the wooded area on one side, whilst the park is bordered on the other by the River Aube. The park's appeal lies today - and will lie even more so in the future - in the refreshing atmosphere and the enjoyment the river offers on fine days.
