Description
Steeped in history, the château's origins trace back to the Middle Ages, with a majestic keep dating back to the 13th century. A graceful dwelling, reflecting the Henri II architectural style of the 19th century, now stands upon the site of the original château's stables.
Basement level: Underneath the château you will see the vaulted cellars which are a fascinating insight into ancient times.
The ground floor: This level comprises a large reception room with a Renaissance-style fireplace, leading to a further reception room with toilets and a large kitchen with many architectural features including a fireplace which dates from the Middle Ages.
1st floor: Here you will find a large bright reception room. This room has a fireplace dating from the 19th Century adorned with tiles with fleur-de-lys motifs, a splendid herringbone parquet floor and a painted coffered ceiling. From the hall, you will enter the Salon du Marquis, with a Renaissance-style fireplace, coffered ceiling and period floor tiles, that leads out onto the terrace.
2nd Floor: Here you will find the Chambre du Marquis, which includes a secondary kitchen, a large bedroom with its own Renaissance-style fireplace and bathroom, three other bedrooms and a separate bathroom.
3rd Floor: Located exclusively in the keep, here you will find two additional bedrooms with two separate bathrooms and a large attic space.
4th floor: This floor comprises two bedrooms, with access to the covered walkway.
5th floor: two attic rooms.
Amidst the grounds, a charming pigeonnier stands to the left of the driveway, hinting at potential as a studio space.
Radiating with natural light and preserving its architectural heritage, this historical gem awaits its next chapter. For further details and a glimpse into the captivating history of this château, do not hesitate to contact me.
