About this property
Charming XIX Century Home with Garden, Near River, Hiking Trails, and Historic Sites
The former 19th-century presbytery, restored in 2002, offers you an authentic setting. In the heart of the Erve Valley and at the foot of the canyon and the Saulges caves, you will be charmed by this village, classified as a Small Town of Character, bordered by the Erve River (fishing possible from March to September for category 1 and year-round for category 2), offering a hilly environment. The village is welcoming with its restored stone houses, the river, the Cèdre bakery (organic wood-fired bread), and its seasonal bar. Discover the works of art scattered throughout the village, on the houses....
The cottage is independent with its large enclosed garden, very close to the church. You will appreciate its large living rooms ideal for spending time with family and friends: dining room 18m², small living room 10m² ..which can open to enlarge the 2nd living room 18m². Upstairs, 3 beautiful bedrooms: a master suite 18m² with its private bathroom (shower) - 1 bed 160*200 and 1 bed 90*190, a bedroom with baby bed 18m² - 1 bed 160*200 and 1 bed 90*190 and a bedroom 9m² with 2 beds 90*190. In total, 2 toilets and 3 bathrooms/shower. Convertible: 2 additional people available upon request.
Starting from Saint Pierre, numerous hiking trails crisscross the countryside. Along the Erve River, you can reach the Saulges Caves, a prehistoric site with an exceptional natural setting, rock climbing, and an on-site restaurant.
You're in the Coëvrons, a land of art and history, in a remarkable natural and heritage area. Explore the small towns of Saulges and Sainte Suzanne (also listed as the most beautiful village in France), along 40 marked hiking trails. Step back in time by visiting the Museum of Prehistory, the Roman town of Jublains, the Evron Basilica, and the castle and medieval town of Sainte Suzanne.
In summer, you can enjoy the swimming ponds at the Gué de Selle leisure center in Mézangers, for example (swimming golf, canoeing, etc. are also available). A wide range of swimming pools in Bais, Evron, and Sainte Suzanne are perfect for cooling off.
As you've probably guessed, the area is rich in discoveries.
