Description
Situated in the heart of the Limousin, in the charming town of Châteauponsac, this magnificent château enjoys a commanding position overlooking the picturesque Gartempe Valley. Fully renovated to an exceptional standard and offered for sale fully furnished, it represents a rare opportunity to acquire a turnkey property of character and distinction. Perfect as an elegant family residence, a refined bed and breakfast, or a luxury investment in the thriving château rental market, this property beautifully balances heritage, comfort, and modern living.
Set within over 8,200 m² of landscaped parkland, the château enjoys a serene and tranquil setting while being just moments from the amenities of the town. The grounds are mainly laid to lawn with mature trees, walled boundaries, and a selection of sunny and shaded terraces ? ideal for outdoor entertaining or quiet relaxation. The original coach house offers excellent potential for conversion into further accommodation or may simply serve as a spacious garage and workshop. A large hangar is located at the entrance to the property.
Inside, the château has been thoughtfully restored, preserving its authentic features while introducing modern comfort and understated luxury. The ground floor comprises a fully equipped kitchen with adjoining back kitchen and laundry room, a formal dining room, reading lounge, and an office or guest suite with en-suite bathroom. The grand entrance hall, situated at the base of the tower, provides access to the cellar and sets a graceful tone for the rest of the home. Both the formal staircase and the original servants' staircase lead to the upper floors.
The first floor features five large double bedrooms with original flooring and period details, some with antique fireplaces. Three have en-suite bathrooms, while one enjoys a charming dressing room in the tower. The remaining bedrooms are served by a spacious family bathroom and a separate WC.
On the second floor, there are two additional bedrooms, another family bathroom, a tranquil reading room in the tower, a generous games room, and a snug lounge ? an inviting space for family life or guest relaxation.
The interiors are elegant and refined, with high ceilings, chandeliers, and restored architectural details enhancing the château's timeless atmosphere. The renovation has been completed to the highest standard, achieving a seamless harmony between classical beauty and contemporary comfort.
While the château enjoys a sense of calm and seclusion, it benefits from an exceptionally convenient location within the town, providing easy access to local shops, cafés, and services. The popular leisure lake of Saint-Pardoux is just a short drive away, and Limoges, the capital of Haute-Vienne with its international airport and excellent rail links, is only 30 minutes away. High-speed connections to Paris take less than three hours, making this an ideal retreat within easy reach of major destinations.
This is a truly outstanding property ? a château that captures the romance of French heritage while offering all the elegance and practicality of modern living. Whether as a distinguished private residence, a hospitality venture, or an investment of rare quality, it is a home of exceptional charm and enduring appeal. (5.00 % fees incl.
