Historic Château With Panoramic Views And Extensive Outbuildings

About the Property

A historic château in the Lot-et-Garonne region of France, built in 1963, offers 600 square meters of living space across four stories. This magnificent property, situated on a promontory near Agen, features panoramic views over the rolling hills and encompasses a total area of 36,423 square meters. Originally a fortified villa dating back to the 12th century, the château has undergone significant alterations and expansions throughout its history. Notable additions include a square tower with cross-shaped loopholes from the 13th or 14th century, a chapel constructed in the late 15th or early 16th century, and further enhancements in the 17th century that introduced elegant semi-circular portals. The property was acquired in 1963 by a chief architect of historic monuments, who meticulously renovated it in accordance with historical preservation standards. It was listed as a partial Historic Monument in 1964 and classified in 1988. The interior comprises 15 main rooms, including a guard room and dungeons located in the basement. The attic space presents potential for conversion, while the loggia and terraces provide stunning views of the surrounding landscape.
