Historic Château with Moat and Outbuildings in the Berry Region

About the Property

In the heart of the Berry region, this historic château, dating from the 15th to 17th centuries, presents a captivating blend of medieval and classical architecture. Spanning approximately 500 square meters, the property features a moat and expansive grounds, all situated just three hours from Paris by motorway. The estate encompasses a total area of 8.5 acres, offering a serene environment characterized by rolling plains and picturesque landscapes. Approached via a fixed bridge over the former moat, the château reveals itself as a classic 17th-century manor house, complemented by a remarkable medieval keep flanked by two towers. The manor rises over three storeys, crowned with a hipped roof adorned with lead finials. The elegant façades are punctuated by rows of windows, while a striking wrought-iron and glass veranda inspired by the Art Nouveau style enhances the eastern elevation. The interior boasts a grand entrance hall leading to a drawing room with a fireplace, a dining room that opens onto the veranda, and a spacious kitchen with adjoining laundry facilities. The first floor accommodates four bedrooms, three of which feature en-suite shower rooms, alongside a bathroom. The keep's grand hall, illuminated by stained-glass windows, showcases a monumental fireplace bearing the arms of the Boissieu family. Ascending to the second floor, one discovers a billiard room and expansive attic spaces beneath a timber framework. The outbuildings are arranged in a U-shaped complex, comprising a tack room, stable, guest house, and various ancillary structures. The grounds are beautifully landscaped, featuring an English-style garden and a natural outer park with a pond, all contributing to the property's distinct romantic charm. Price: €935,000 including fees (paid by the seller). Exclusive listing by Cabinet LE NAIL.
