About the Property

A beautiful 15th and 19th-century château, meticulously maintained, set within approximately 25 acres of parkland in the Vendée department of France. This estate, located between La Roche-sur-Yon and Niort, is nestled on the edge of a tranquil village in the Bocage Vendéen, offering a serene retreat just 40 minutes from the popular Puy du Fou theme park. The château's interior boasts bright and airy rooms that retain the charm of historic residences, featuring antique fireplaces, wood paneling, and elegant moldings. The ground floor is accessed via a hallway adorned with flagstone flooring, leading to a cozy living room with double exposure and an office situated in the tower. A splendid dining room, accompanied by a smaller dining area with antique floor tiles and a fireplace, complements the large, bright kitchen that opens onto the west courtyard. A beautiful staircase provides access to the upper floors. On the first floor, a spacious hallway leads to several bedrooms, including a large bedroom of approximately 40 square meters, complete with parquet flooring, a fireplace, and decorative moldings. Additional amenities include an office in the tower, multiple bathrooms, and further bedrooms, accommodating a total of six bathrooms and seven toilets, making it suitable for potential bed and breakfast operations. The second floor features a hallway that connects to five additional bedrooms, a games room, and a billiard room located in the tower, alongside a shower room and a bathroom with a toilet. Outbuildings: - An apartment of approximately 80 square meters, featuring a living room with a fireplace, a bedroom, and a bathroom. - Barns and former stables. - A workshop, woodshed, and boiler room in the west wing. - A 17th-century dovecote in need of repair. - A wooden hunting lodge requiring renovation. - A summer kitchen with a utility room containing old stoves. The estate is entirely enclosed by stone walls, ensuring complete privacy and featuring a variety of landscaped areas that harmoniously blend unspoiled nature with elegant design. The park is adorned with numerous century-old trees, including a remarkable yew tree estimated to be a thousand years old. A stream runs through the estate, complemented by a pond and a large lake fed by a spring. The northern section of the park is structured with shaded paths, while the southern areas open onto luminous meadows where sheep graze. A carefully designed swimming pool area, sheltered from view, and a tennis court enhance the leisure facilities available. Price: €1,290,000 including fees (paid by the seller). Exclusive listing by Cabinet LE NAIL.
