Elegant 18th Century Château Set Within A Historic Romantic Park

About the Property

Located 60 km from Paris, this sumptuous 18th-century château, built in 1754, is set within one of France's earliest romantic parks, spanning 68 hectares. The estate is approached via a 300-metre-long driveway, ensuring a tranquil environment entirely free from nuisances. The park was created in 1763 for an Enlightenment liberal lawyer and friend of the Prince de Conti, showcasing perfectly elegant symmetrical classical architecture inspired by Parisian private mansions. The interior of the château is bathed in light and features sumptuous 18th-century décor, including a spectacular ballroom designed in 1965 by the prestigious Jansen decoration house. This ballroom, inspired by the Salon de la Paix and Salon de la Guerre at Versailles, is adorned with magnificent faux marble and mirrors, and opens onto a vast terrace overlooking the park. The ground floor also includes a dining room with wood paneling and a beautiful faience stove, alongside two splendid reception rooms, each with exquisite woodwork and fireplaces. The first floor comprises four beautiful bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms, including an alcove bedroom and a marble bathroom. A mezzanine apartment in the east wing features a small alcove bedroom and a large bedroom with a marble fireplace. The second floor offers additional bedrooms and a boudoir, all retaining original 18th-century features. The outbuildings are arranged around two enclosed courtyards and include three large reception rooms, a hall, and four magnificent vaulted stone cellars. A 180 sqm reception hall with covered open-sided shelters is also present, alongside a hunting room adorned with marble dadoes and Art Nouveau paintings. The estate features a formal walled kitchen garden, a neoclassical orangery, and a gardener’s house built circa 1920.
