From the owner

The "Jardin des Amandiers" is a rare apartment on the ground floor of an old 15th c. Manor of the Order of the Knights Templar. (not accessible to people with reduced mobility) It features a private parking, a great garden, a great living room, a great bed, a great freestanding bath, a great cinema screen... in the greatest calm right in the center of Tours.

Pass the entrance porch, cross the courtyard and the second garden before reaching your flat. You can lunch on the terrace, on the large teak table, or walk straight into the kitchen.

Why not indulge in a authentic Italian espresso, made with beans freshly ground in the coffee machine?

Or perhaps you'll want to settle on the leather sofa to calmly prepare your day's schedule. The wifi fibre connection allows you to surf at very high speed.

The large remote control allows you to lower the projection screen and manage all the home cinema equipment. You can watch TV programmes or blu-ray movies either from the sofa or from a queen bed set on a platform.

You may also relax in the large freestanding bath. The bathroom is also equipped with loudspeakers fitted in the walls, and with customisable mood lighting.

Historical information :

The house was built during the unification of the city of Tours in the 12th c., as part of Henri II Plantagenet's city wall project. It belonged to the Commandery of the Order of the Knights Templar. The oldest remaining parts date back from the 15th c. The main building is set over two storeys of vaulted cellars from which several underground passages allowed inhabitants to escape and find refuge, for instance in the Cathedral.

Joan of Arc is said to have stayed there when she came to Tours in 1429 to have her armour made by Master Armorer Colas de Montbazon whose workshop was in the same neighbourhood, in the Rue Colbert.
