Historic Château With 18 Bedrooms And 20 Hectares Of Parkland

About the Property

A historic château with exceptional charm, built between the 15th and 20th centuries, located 120 km from Paris in the Perche region. This estate encompasses 20 hectares and features five main buildings, including 18 bedrooms and a built area of 2,500 m². The property is situated 8 km from the A10 motorway exit, offering both tranquility and accessibility. Nestled on the edge of a small village, this château stands on the site of a former structure that was burned during the Hundred Years' War. The estate's rich history is reflected in its diverse architectural styles, with elements from the medieval period through to the 20th century. The original square medieval château, surrounded by moats, was reconstructed in the late 15th and early 16th centuries, with notable surviving features including the gatehouse known as “Le Donjon” and the Saint-François Tower. The main body of the current château comprises buildings from the 16th to the 18th centuries, forming a U-shaped courtyard that overlooks a splendid park. This park features a large 200-meter-long terrace, sumptuous boxwood embroidery gardens, yew topiaries, and a one-hectare vegetable garden, all separated from a woodland by a picturesque canal. The five main buildings include: 1. “Le Pavillon du Bourg” - the château closest to the village square, dating from the 16th to 18th centuries. 2. The gatehouse known as “Le Donjon,” which includes a 15th-century gallery and a residential section built in 1980. 3. The Saint-François Tower, a 15th-century structure. 4. The Louis XVI pavilion, known as the “Renaissance House,” modified in the 17th and 18th centuries. 5. Various outbuildings showcasing superb 16th-century timber frameworks.
