About the Property

Elegant 19th-century château, built around 1850 on the foundations of a medieval fortress, located in the heart of France, approximately 3 hours from Paris. This remarkable property encompasses a 57-acre estate, predominantly wooded, featuring a stream and a mixed forest of pine and century-old oak trees, situated at the edge of the prestigious Tronçais forest. The château presents an eclectic architectural style, combining red brick and blonde stone characteristic of the Second Empire. Its grand façade is organized around a monumental central avant-corps, complete with a clock, statue, double-flight staircase, and stone balustrade, flanked by grey-rendered wings adorned with pointed dormers and dark red woodwork. The U-shaped courtyard at the rear opens onto an octagonal fountain, while the landscaped park boasts century-old trees, a heated swimming pool, and a tennis court. The main building offers approximately 3,800 square meters of living space distributed over four levels, comprising 36 rooms, including 23 bedrooms. Notable features include a reception room with a remarkable ceiling height of 26 feet, a dining room embellished with stucco and gilded wood paneling, a professional kitchen, three wine cellars, and a complete wellness area in the basement, which includes a hammam, sauna, spa, and jacuzzi.
