Exceptional Manor House with Historical Significance and Modern Amenities

About the Property

An exceptional manor house, originally built in 1650, stands majestically atop the Old Village of Vieux Bourg, overlooking the confluence of the Rhône and Drôme rivers in the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region. This estate, with its 870 square meters of living space set within an expansive 8,000 square meter park, masterfully blends the noble austerity of its medieval origins with the boldness of contemporary renovations. The main stone building features a striking façade of stone and lime plaster, complemented by a square tower and a round pepperpot tower. The ground floor houses four principal rooms, which are listed as Historical Monuments due to their sumptuous period murals painted with mineral pigments. These exceptional decorations interact harmoniously with the impressive volumes, solid wood French-style ceilings, and antique fireplaces. The upper floors, renovated with a distinctive style, contain bright, interconnected salons and spacious bedrooms that offer hushed comfort, adorned with herringbone parquet flooring and minimalist bathrooms. The estate also boasts remarkable outbuildings that enhance the art of outdoor living. A former orangery has been magnificently transformed into an independent suite with a bedroom, a bathroom, and a private jacuzzi. A charming little chapel adds a touch of historical soul to the property, while a long swimming pool blends with rare elegance into the park, perfect for balmy summer days. This unique property presents an opportunity for intergenerational family projects, high-end hospitality ventures, or creative expression, appealing to those who seek a blend of history, uniqueness, and expansive living spaces. Price: €1,999,000 including fees (paid by the seller).
