Neo-Gothic Château with Historical Monument Status in the Loire Valley

About the Property

A neo-Gothic château, granted regional Historical Monument status, built between 1908 and 1913, set within nearly 5 hectares of grounds, meadows, and woods, located on a hillside in the Loire Valley. This estate, nestled against the Bercé public woodland and on the outskirts of a picturesque village, is characterized by its flamboyant neo-Gothic style, popular among the aristocracy and upper middle class of the era. The château, with a floor area of approximately 275 m², features four storeys, including a garden level and an attic. Its slate roofs are adorned with numerous dormers crafted from tuffeau stone, which also embellish the cornices, quoins, and window surrounds. The exterior architecture, constructed with flint from the Loir River valley, evokes the aesthetics of a knightly manor, employing Gothic arches, lancets, and stained glass to enhance natural light and verticality. A pepperpot turret, topped with a slate candle-snuffer roof, and wide stone cross windows further accentuate its medieval charm.
