Full Description
Perched on the heights south of the Charente River, its Italianate appearance greatly contributes to its charm. Access is via the park, to the south. Beautiful 16th-century balustrades run along the edges of the moats. The architectural originality may stem from the scalloped crenellations atop the machicolations that crown the walls.
Inside, the stone staircase is a major feature. With three flights and balustrades, its coffered ceiling adds to its grandeur. A large salon adorned with stucco work is particularly elegant and provides an ideal setting for entertaining.
The château also offers two dining rooms, a kitchen, a scullery, and a bedroom with its own bathroom on the ground floor. Upstairs, there are 5 to 6 bedrooms, two bathrooms, two shower rooms, and an office.
On the garden level, you'll find vaulted rooms and a Romanesque-style guardroom.
Near the entrance to the estate stands a 200 m² barn that has been renovated to serve as a reception hall. A garage with a workshop above, a dovecote, and a swimming pool area enclosed in a secure courtyard complete the outbuildings.
The former washhouse, measuring around 170 m², remains to be renovated.
