Outside, there is ample room to park several cars, and an independent workshop of 30m².

Grounds
A driveway leads from large wrought iron gates around the edge of the property to the car park. The grounds of almost 5000m² are laid mainly to lawn with mature trees and shrubs. The totally private courtyard is planted with citrus trees and has a circular ornamental water basin. There is also a pedestrian gate, with intercom, leading directly towards the village at the side of the property.

General Condition
The house is in perfect condition and tastefully decorated throughout. All the renovation work has been carried out to a very high standard, with quality materials. The entire facade has recently been re-rendered, and the shutters replaced with hand-made replicas of the originals.  There is an efficient oil-fuelled central heating system, and all the plumbing and electricity has been replaced.

Comment
An outstanding opportunity to acquire a beautiful Château in a village setting which allows just to move in. The addition of 2 or 3 extra bathrooms would make this property eminently suitable for a boutique hotel, prestigious B&B, reception or conference centre.
