Audrey House 5 ***** - Refinement - Comfort - Tranquility.

A haven of peace
"La Maison D'Audrey" is a family home of 390 m2 where it is good to land and take the time. It is an invitation to travel in Anjou. This one wants to be soft, delicate, and soothing to appreciate the mood of the sky, the beautiful banks of the Loire, and the numerous castles and vineyards.

Audrey and Xavier welcome you home. They renovated this house for more than 5 years, taking care of every detail, from the construction to the development, while having the will to share their home.
"The House of Audrey" is the fruit of the meeting between two cultures, the habitat of Anjou and the Belgian decoration.

It pays tribute to Xavier's native region. Fallen in love with Anjou, he imagined this place in order to make discover this universe and this atmosphere so special. Behind a house that seems "in its juice", it has managed to integrate all modern techniques aimed at energy comfort (vmc double flow, insulation, floor heating, boiler with wood).

Audrey, of Belgian origin, is a painter and interior designer. She designed an elegant house, in a unit of hues and materials to let pass the wonderful light Angevin and sublimate the stone of the building.

"La Maison D'Audrey" is a former presbytery of the 18th century; It extends to the foot of a tower of the 15th century, and a church of the 12th century, not far from the majestic and immutable Loire.

Audrey and Xavier reveal the soul of the place, treating and respecting a unique site and classified to historical monuments since 1944, with a luxurious and delicate modernity.

With family or friends, this haven of peace is conducive to moments of sharing, exchanges, sweets and relaxation in a unique place.
The atmosphere
Audrey and Xavier bet on the know-how, the tailor-made craftsmen, the beautiful materials and the adjusted finishes.

The exterior in tufa stone, typical of this region, marries the heat of the wood inside. The soft light of Anjou penetrates the pretty dwelling and reveals its unique and contrasting style: bourgeois and neo-rural, cozy but playing with lights, sober and chic.

On three levels, the "House of Audrey" allows everyone to find his space of rest in the 4 immense rooms. Each one has a large bathroom.

Audrey traveled to France and Belgium in search of materials and decorative objects. It foams the flea markets to find rare items and give them the right place. The Belgian art of living likes to play contrasts and mix styles in perfect unity.

The tone of beige, moles and creams only sublimates this interior.
Each room in the house is a magnificent alliance between furniture, objects of traditional and unusual decorations, and natural fabrics.
The furnishing fabrics are just noble materials, old or new (linen, old linen, cotton ...) and give a warm touch to the house, which is located in the heart of a beautiful garden.

Sweet Angevine and Garden
The latter, enclosed by stone walls, stretches over 4,400 m2 and is full of plant species (oaks, linden trees, redwood, red maple, umbrella pines, rose trees, fig trees, fruit trees, vines, palms, bamboos, Kiwi). Several corners in the garden have been arranged in order to find a moment of peace, in contact with nature, or escape according to the desires of each one.
The garden is an invitation to reading, meditation, or relaxation ...
A magnificent vegetable garden allows to cook with fruits and vegetables of the garden.

Out of sight, crossing the garden and a small wooden bridge we discover a magnificent swimming pool heated in season, where one enjoys to bathe while contemplating the tower of Trier.

Family Get Away
We were a family of 8 - elderly in-laws, middle aged couple and our grown up children and their partners. What an amazing place, equipped with the very best of everything. Superb huge bedrooms all with en-suite facilites and some stunning gardens. 2 e-bikes were used every morning to bike and collect fresh bread and pastries just over 15 minutes away in Gennes. So much to do and see in the area - we were so lucky that on day one was the Saumur Marathon finishing in the centre of Saumur - what a day!! We are all foodies and love to cook - the kitchen and dining room were our places - matched with some trmendous produce purchased at the surrounding markets and the the butchers in Doue la Fontaine - Maison Godet is worth a visit. Loved Saumur and Montreuil - Bellay. Thank you for a wonderful stay - we loved it

We did not want to live! The property has it all! Incredible space, privacy, and location. Lots of room for my grand kids to play, the pool area and pool was a delight especially on those warm days. The00000000000000000000000 piece de resistance: a gorgeous tastesfully redecorated mansion all done superbly. From the country kitchen all equiped w/top appliances even w/the italien expresso & coffee machine! We were 4 adults and 2 children ( 8 &10 years old) we all had so much space. We ate all our meals on the grand outdoor patio. How refreshing to find a home where the host gives so much attention to details and offers the comfort that this home has. Xavier thank you again for letting us extend a few hours our stay. My family along with my 2 grandchildren spend a superb time in your unique and gorgeous home. Hope to be back next year!

Beautiful house in the Country!
We loved staying in Xavier's gorgeous house about 15 minutes outside of Saumur. The house is beautifully and tastefully renovated still capturing the ancient spirit of houses in the neighborhood. Xavier was very communicative and we had a very smooth entry. All the directions for the house are clearly spelled out in both French and English. But it was all fairly self-explanatory. The kitchen was extremely well stocked, and featured a chef's gas stove. We ended up cooking in 3 of 4 nights, taking advantage of the great local products that the boucheries, fromageries, and organic vegetable stores had to offer. The bedrooms were all relatively large and very comfortable. The two 2nd floor bathrooms have both baths and a large stand up shower. The upstairs two bedrooms have the more traditional, large tub with shower handle. The property itself was beautiful. We lamented that it was winter that we couldn't take advantage of the swimming pool. That said, we loved having dinner by the fire in the well-appointed dining room. We also took advantage of the e-bikes to take a long ride along the Loire River and then up in the hills. Can't wait to come back to this beautiful house! Merci beacoup, Xavier, pour un séjour chaleureux, i.e. a wonderful stay!

Family break on the Loire
We had a fantastic week at Maison d’Anjou. We have been to very many gites in France and this property is exceptional. The house, the garden and pool are all more spacious than implied by the photographs online. Eight people can be accommodated in true luxury. The kitchen is extremely well equipped and enabled indoor and outdoor dining for all of us with ease, making use of the garden produce tended with care by Alain. Each bedroom is en-suite, enormous and furnished to a very high standard. This stay was 5-star in every respect and we would not hesitate to return. Merci Xavier

Magical week away
I really cannot praise this property enough! It's been said many times before on other reviews, but the photos really do not do it justice! It is absolutely stunning in every way possible! Huge rooms, exquisite decor, fresh fruit and veg to enjoy from the beautiful garden, large and spotless pool, peaceful location. Xavier couldn't do enough to help us - discreet yet immediately responsive. My only complaint is that we didn't book for longer...one week was not enough to enjoy this wonderful, magical property. We will be back!

Magic on the Loire
Incredible, tranquil retreat for friends and family on the Loire. The love, design and thoughtful detail Audrey and Xavier poured into this home capture and embrace you from the moment you arrive. They should write a book on their journey to create the warm design throughout that marries classic countryside with modern functional needs. Easily accommodates four adult couples. Perfect kitchen and indoor and outdoor dining areas for creating fabulous dinners. 30 second walk across the street to stroll, run or bike the river. Fantastic base for wine touring in the Saumur area and for nearby Chateaux viewing. Relax and enjoy.

Fabulous house
This is a beautiful home. The attention to detail is excellent. All the rooms are very spacious and the bedrooms feel really luxurious. There is a lot of outside space and the pool is large enough to enjoy a good swim. Xavier is an excellent and responsive host. Highly recommended and would love to return one day.
