Description
As you approach this exceptional château, you're greeted by the impressive and majestic dimensions epitomizing the purest tradition of eighteenth-century architecture.
The sumptuous central hall leads us into the heart of this stunning property with its high ceilings and equally impressive windows. The "grand salon" measuring over 60m2 enjoys views of the newly landscaped french gardens. The adjoining dining room is dominated by the fabulous 'Viollet-le-Duc' fireplace and resonates the opulence of the epoch. The music room has also been restored to its former grandeur by the present owners. A private chapelle, second sitting room and the owners quarters make up the rest of the ground floor.
On the first floor, the Grand Gallery stretches almost forty meters, crossing the entire length of the Château. 'La chambre du Marquis' and the 'chambre du marquises have both been painstakingly restored to their former glory.
Each bedroom and antechamber is a fabulous glimpse of the opulent 18th century.
