Baugé, Pays de la Loire 49150

A townhouse and its enclosed garden in the centre of a small historical city within the Anjou region. The house's front faade looks out onto a small square shaded by ancient lime trees, around which some of the town's most beautiful buildings stand, while its back faade and two wings frame a paved courtyard, which is extended by an ornamental garden entirely enclosed by walls. With a common wall on one side, the house is oriented east-west and is made up of a main building, flanked by two other buildings. The main section and the first wing, slightly lower, have three floors, including an attic level, while the second wing only has one floor.Built out of lime-plastered rubble stone and topped with a slate gable roof with dormer windows, tuffeau stone is used in the window and door surrounds, cornices, quoins and dormer windows. With wooden shutters protecting the windows on the ground floor, the main building and a portion of the first wing are used as living quarters, while the rest of the space is allocated for the outbuildings.
