Property summary
Rouvadin is a detached 18th century stone farmhouse set in the midst of the Mayenne countryside on the borders with the Alpes Mancelles. The farmhouse has been recently completely renovated by local French artisans and has the benefit of an attached self contained cottage which is currently being let out as a gîte but could equally be used as a ‘granny flat’. The gîte is currently being let out for 14/ 15 weeks each year.
The farmhouse is situated in a hamlet of three properties on a quiet road 100 metres from the Forest de Pail. The nearest villages with shops, bars and restaurants are Villaines la Juhel and Pré en Pail which are both 5 minutes away by car. Alencon and Mayenne are both about 20 minutes away. The beautiful Sarthe River and the villages of St Ceneri le Gerei and St Leonard de Bois are about 10 minutes way by car.
The property has recently been repointed, reroofed and is double glazed throughout. All the windows and doors benefit from roller shutters for additional security.
A gas combi boiler supplies very economical hot water and gas central heating with thermostatically controlled radiators in all rooms. The gas tank has recently been sited below ground. Many of the original internal stone walls are exposed although care has been taken to use high quality insulation and plasterboard on exterior facing walls to reduce heat loss.
