Historic Château with 19 Bedrooms and Panoramic Gardens

About the Property

In the heart of the Gard, France, this historic château, with origins dating back to 1050, commands a picturesque position overlooking the Gardon gorges between Uzès and the Pont du Gard. The estate spans nearly two hectares, featuring beautifully landscaped gardens and terraces, and is strategically located less than thirty minutes from Nîmes and forty minutes from Avignon, making it a prime residence within a significant heritage area. This remarkable château, built around an 11th-century tower, has evolved through the centuries, reflecting the architectural influences of its storied past. It was owned by the Montpezat family in the 15th century and underwent extensive renovations in the 18th century under the direction of the Marquis de La Chapelle, who established its current architectural structure. The property now comprises several historic wings and the medieval tower, all harmoniously restored to blend heritage with contemporary standards. With approximately 1,729 square meters of living space, the château accommodates nineteen bedrooms, providing ample room for both private living and hospitality ventures. The interior layout is designed for flexibility, allowing for independent suites and private areas, while additional spaces offer potential for future development, including the creation of a wellness area. The reception areas are characterized by elegance and natural light, featuring lounges, vaulted rooms, and a gastronomic restaurant that showcases sophisticated cuisine inspired by local produce, all with panoramic views of the gardens and surrounding hillside. The outdoor spaces include a meticulously designed private park with English-style gardens, a rose garden, tree-lined paths, and a traditional kitchen garden, complemented by a discreetly integrated swimming pool and ornamental basins, creating a serene and inviting atmosphere.
