Exceptional 13th Century Castle With Extensive Grounds And Equestrian Facilities

About the Property

Exceptional 13th-century castle with extensive grounds and equestrian facilities, located in the heart of the French Jura. This magnificent property spans 132 hectares and features a living area of 4,000 m², including 24 bedrooms and 27 bathrooms. It is conveniently situated just 1 hour from Geneva by road and 9 minutes by air. Originally a fortress with a keep, towers, and drawbridges, this castle underwent a significant restoration in the late 19th century by a wealthy industrialist from Lyon, who transformed it into a Renaissance-style residence. The current owner completed further restorations in 2007, adhering to historical and artistic standards, which led to its designation as a listed French historical monument. Upon entering through the grand gate, visitors are greeted by a picturesque driveway lined with centuries-old trees, leading to the former 16th-century Barony. The castle boasts a total of 70 rooms spread across three floors, with the royal stables offering exceptional equestrian facilities, including eight large boxes, a riding school, and an outdoor training area. Several outbuildings have been restored, including the caretaker's house, a service building for staff accommodation, and the gardener's house. The barn remains the only structure not yet restored. The estate is enclosed by a wall and features a stunning French-style garden covering 20 hectares, alongside forests, mountains, and vineyards. Water features prominently throughout the property, with an English river, stone canals, waterfalls, and a pond enhancing the landscape's beauty.
