Historic 17th Century Château With Expansive Gardens And Pool

About the Property

An early 17th-century château located near Pézenas in the Occitanie region of France, this property presents a remarkable opportunity to own a piece of history. Nestled within a 5,700 m² park, the estate boasts an impressive living area of 1,000 m², featuring centenary trees and panoramic views of the surrounding vineyards. While the château requires restoration to fully realize its potential, its medieval origins are reflected in the traditional stone walls, arched windows, and original features that enhance its charm and character. The central building is supported by four round towers, and although the structure is sound and habitable, the interiors necessitate modernization to meet contemporary living standards. Restoration efforts will need to preserve historical features such as fireplaces, exposed beams, and stone floors, while updating essential systems including plumbing, electrical wiring, heating, and insulation. The existing pool, a serene relaxation spot, also requires restoration, and the expansive gardens provide ample space for outdoor activities or events. Given its age and heritage, the château is subject to regulations that protect its architectural integrity, ensuring that any restoration work adheres to guidelines designed to preserve its historical character. Once restored, the property could serve as a luxurious private residence, a charming hotel, or an exceptional event space, capitalizing on the rich tourism industry of the region. Price: €990,000 including fees (paid by the seller). Information on the risks to which this property is exposed is available on the Géorisques website: https://www.georisques.gouv.fr/
