Saumur
We are selling our beautiful historic house on the quayside of the charming Saumur. It is the last intact house on the famous waterfront, with amazing views from all rooms of the Loire to the north and the Saumur castle to the south. All schools, cafes, restaurants, and amenities of the city center are just a few minutes walk away. The property features a full wine cellar and storage space on the courtyard level, which could be renovated into a usable room. The street level includes an entrance vestibule with a separate toilet, a 20m2 living room with a working fireplace, beautiful oak woodwork and beams, and terracotta floors. The fully equipped kitchen includes high-end stainless steel appliances and antique ceramic tiles. On the first floor, you will find the master bedroom with exceptional river views, large closets behind 1700s paneling, a fireplace, and en-suite bathroom. The second floor offers a double bedroom with a fireplace, a single bedroom, and a bathroom with a new shower. The third floor boasts a large 45m2 space used as a 4th bedroom, sitting area, cinema room, and artist's studio, with stunning views of the river and castle. The main bedroom rents well via Airbnb due to its proximity to Place Saint Pierre and the weekly farmer's market, as well as the Loire à Vélo cycling route. The house is very cost-effective to heat, with a new boiler installed in February 2024 and original windows and 18th-century glass in some cases. The property also features a shared courtyard with a garden table and chairs under a beautiful vine and rose bush. It has been featured in several interior design magazines, including Homes & Antiques in 2021. In terms of the price, the property is well worth the investment given its historical significance, unique features, excellent location, and potential for rental income through Airbnb. It offers a truly special living experience in the heart of Saumur.
