About the Property

Historic 16th-century château, steeped in history and listed as an ISMH, set within a 45-hectare estate in the unspoiled natural environment of Poitou-Charentes, France. This exceptional property, which has remained in the same family since the late 18th century, notably that of Georges Clemenceau, features approximately 1,200 square meters of living space and is located just 50 minutes from La Rochelle. The château de l’Aubraye is surrounded by water-filled moats fed by natural springs, imparting a rare and majestic character to the estate. The main building is arranged over several levels and includes impressive reception areas such as multiple lounges, a dining room, a study, a games room, and a winter garden, alongside nine bedrooms, including the historic bedroom of Georges Clemenceau. The upper floors offer numerous additional bedrooms and spaces, presenting significant potential for further development. The estate encompasses substantial outbuildings totaling approximately 1,750 square meters, which include former aviaries, barns, a greenhouse, and a cellar, as well as the remains of an old chapel and an independent apartment within the courtyard. Several courtyards, towers, and ancillary buildings provide the potential to create up to eight additional bedrooms. The grounds are further enhanced by two ponds, extensive fields, and a large kitchen garden, making it ideal for a wide range of lifestyle or commercial projects, subject to heritage regulations related to its listed status. Renovation is required for the roofs of the outbuildings, which has been reflected in the pricing, with an estimated reduction of approximately €800,000. The roofs of the main residential buildings are in good condition. Price: €2,100,000 including fees (paid by the seller). Exclusive listing by KRETZ Family Real Estate.
