Description

A39736ABR03 - This magnificent château, with origins dating back to 1234, is a property of rare distinction, combining history, character, and potential. It retains many authentic architectural features, including beautiful fireplaces, French ceilings, parquet floors, and finely preserved woodwork.
The château is set within 2.5 hectares of partly walled grounds, offering open views, multiple entrances, mature fruit trees, and a well. Outbuildings include a caretaker’s house for renovation (75 m² plus an upper floor), two spacious barns (168 m² and 126 m²), a traditional 17th-century dovecote listed as a historic monument, and an 18th-century chapel incorporating vaulted ceilings dating from the 14th century.
Layout:
Ground floor: Entrance hall (18 m²) with roof terrace above, elegant living room (39 m²) with fireplace, library (37 m²) with fireplace, dining room (36 m²) with fireplace, spiral staircase in the tower, staircase to upper floors and basement, WC in the second tower, and a private apartment comprising entrance, dining room, kitchen, bedroom, and bathroom.
First floor: Landing and corridor along the façade, WC in the tower, four bedrooms (16, 20, 16 and 19 m²), including one with private bathroom, plus an additional bathroom in the tower.
Second floor: Accessible by two staircases, leading to one bedroom and a vast attic space of approx. 90 m².
Cellars: Several vaulted cellars and the old kitchens, now used as a boiler room.
The château is structurally in good condition and equipped with oil-fired central heating. While the interior has great charm and many period features, it requires modernization to meet contemporary standards.
Location:
Situated in the municipality of Vicq, only 3 km from the charming town of Ebreuil with its shops and services. Additional amenities are available in Gannat (13 km). Excellent access is provided by the A71 motorway, only 8 km away.

About Leggett Immobilier, France

La Maison du Chapitre, 24340 La Rochebeaucourt, France

Leggett Immobilier is a family business that was started 20 years ago and founded on the genuine belief that French estate agency could be done better – today this still holds true. Indeed, this belief was validated last year when we were crowned "Best Estate Agency in France" at a prestigious awards ceremony in London.

All of our agents live and work in France and have excellent local knowledge, covering both their area and local property prices. Clients are given a single point of contact who is dedicated to helping them make the right decision and to be by their side throughout the purchase process. Our in-house contracts team are experienced in dealing with local notaires and have overseen the purchase of over €1bn of French property - they will ensure that the sale progresses smoothly and our fully bilingual team will guide you through all legal documentation.

With over 600 agents spread across the country we like to think that we are now the leading international estate agency in France, last year around one in ten of all UK buyers of French property trusted us to help them. However, the company’s size and success has not altered the fact that we are a family business who pride ourselves on professionalism and friendliness.

Local knowledge is invaluable when buying in a foreign country. Leggett provides this knowledge - nearly all of our agents have lived through a move themselves and have been trained to deal with any issue or question that might arise. This training includes a three day, residential, course, further "advanced" training and access to our head office team who keep abreast of all changes in French property law and legislation.

It is this, unique, “hand-holding” approach that has helped build the foundations of our company. No other agency in France takes such care of a client before, during and after a property is purchased.

The system for buying a property in France can be complex but is regarded as being one of the safest in the world – the French like "red tape" but not much surprises us now.

With over 20 years of experience, we have the knowledge to aid with legal matters, help with finance, and even ensure that you have all the essential services connected when you make the move to your new home.

Leggett Immobilier - local knowledge you can trust.
