This is a beautifully and tastefully presented Maison de Matre, packed
with original features, in the village of Fougerolles du Plessis in the
north of department 53 Mayenne. This location has been a popular choice
with buyers from the UK for some time and is now becoming a target
location for Australian buyers. The house has been in the same family
for at least 2 generations and has been lovingly cared for and very
recently updated with a new roof and new electrics throughout. In
addition, there are wooden shutters to all front windows and UPVC
shutters to those at the rear. The property occupies an impressive,
slightly elevated position just outside the village centre, where all
local services are a short 5 minute walk away. The main towns of Gorron
and Erne are each a 15 minute drive away. Passing through the front
gate, there is a neat lawned area with path leading to the front door.
You enter the lovely entrance hall with doors off to a large lounge
with feature marble fireplace, a morning room/study and a dining room
with feature fireplace in granite and stone. There is a french window
separating the morning room from the dining room and the latter leads
through to the fully fitted and equipped galley kitchen. A cloakroom is
located by the staircase to the rear of the entrance hall. The lounge
has french windows leading to the rear garden, which is an oasis of
seclusion and tranquillity and has a beautiful lawned area, stone
terrace, fully working well and a central stone pathway leading to a
covered outdoor entertaining area which also has a new slate roof.
Subtle halogen lighting is fitted to illuminate the entire garden area
if desired. A beautiful original oak staircase takes you to the first
floor where there are 3 superb bedrooms (main bedroom with fitted
wardrobes and separate dressing room) and a bathroom. On the second
floor there is a huge loft area, with 2 velux windows to the rear
elevation and a double glazed UPVC window to the front, to be developed
if required. There is an enormous garage with doors some 3.5 metres
high, which houses the boiler driving the hot water and central heating
systems, and which would accommodate a mezzanine floor if required.
From here one can access the huge cellar area where a 3000 litre
domestic fuel tank is located. Everything about this house, from the
original feature windows to the oak parquet floors to the central oak
staircase, to the beautiful garden is a real treat - come and see for
yourself!

Tour de France dans les Vosges 1/3

Le Tour de France s'est invité dans les Vosges le samedi 07 juillet 2012. Je suis allé le voir passer quasiment en haut de la montée du col de Grosse-Pierre sur la commune de La Bresse. Dans cette première partie vous pourrez voir l'effervescence qui règne sur le bas-côté des routes empruntées par le Tour, le monde qui s'y presse pour voir passer la caravane et les coureurs. Ensuite, un défilé continu de véhicules puis une première partie de la caravane Vittel, distribution de t-shirts.
