\nTucked away in the rolling countryside of Mayenne (Pays de la Loire), right on the border of Brittany, this truly idyllic property offers a rare sense of seclusion and natural beauty. Surrounded by open fields and with no immediate neighbours, it is accessed via a charming private track leading solely to the property\u2014enhancing its peaceful, away-from-it-all appeal.
\nThis unique setting, combining the character of two beloved regions, makes it an exceptional escape for nature lovers, anglers, or anyone seeking tranquility. While the property has been unoccupied for around five years and now requires substantial clearing and restoration, it presents an exciting opportunity to create a bespoke leisure or fishing haven.
\nThe Lake
\nA picturesque carp lake extending to approximately 0.84 acres, formerly well maintained with stone-lined banks and full perimeter access.
\nNatural spring-fed water supply
\nDepths ranging from 0.75m to 2.75m
\nPreviously de-silted (2006)
\nEquipped with sluice system and fish breeding area
\nHistorically stocked with common and mirror carp (current stock unknown)
\nCurrent condition:
\nThe lake is currently overfull due to a diverted stream flowing directly into it. Water continues downstream, though access around the lake is now more challenging, requiring wellington boots in places.
\nThe Land
\nTotal plot: 5,850 m\u00b2 (approx. 1.4 acres)
\nPrivate, rural setting with no overlooking neighbours
\nAccess via a country lane and private track
\nImportant:
\nThe access track requires clearing and is currently not passable by vehicle. Parts of the land are overgrown, with some fallen trees to be managed\u2014offering scope to reshape and enhance the landscape to your vision.
\nThe Mobile Home
\nPositioned near the entrance, a previously renovated mobile home provides a base for restoration:
\nLayout:
\nLiving room with corner kitchen (approx. 2.80m x 5.00m)
\nOne bedroom with built-in storage
\nShower room (space for chemical toilet)
\nFeatures:
\nLaminate flooring
\nGas cooker
\nWell water supply
\nSolar panels (installed but unused for several years)
\nCondition:
\nRequires cleaning, updating, and full system checks (water, solar, etc.).
\nLocation
\nApproximately 2 km from a village with bar\/tabac and essential amenities
\n16 km from Foug\u00e8res, a historic town known for one of Europe’s largest medieval castles
\nOverview
\nA rare opportunity to acquire a private fishing lake in a beautifully \u0936\u093e\u0902\u0924, nature-rich setting, perfectly positioned between Mayenne and Brittany. With vision and restoration, this property could become a truly special retreat or leisure project with strong long-term potential.
