Full Description
The prestigious Domaine, with its rich history dating back to 1554 and beyond, once served as a gathering place for the affluent bourgeoisie and nobility involved in trade.
This is a grand project awaiting completion.
Inherited by a Bordeaux family in 1848, the estate flourished through its wine and agricultural production throughout the 18th and early 19th centuries. The oldest sections of the property, grouped around the inner courtyard, include the original manor, primarily designated for agricultural use and staff housing. The northeast wing and two large slate pavilions, styled after the iconic Médoc châteaux elegantly crown the main building. Over the centuries, the estate has been home to eleven families, including both the owners and domestic staff.
Today, this domaine remains magnificent and has weathered the test of time remarkably well. The main manor has undergone a comprehensive restoration program and is now awaiting a new owner to complete the final touches.
Significant improvements have included new floors and ceilings, new wooden double glazed windows, an updated roof, and extensive electrical and plumbing work, this is a grand project awaiting completion.
In addition to the manor house, the property features three substantial barns and a two bedroom, comfortable guardian cottage.
The parkland spans 5 hectares, adorned with lush trees, shrubs, and very mature ancient cedar trees, and includes a serene small lake, adding to the estate's charm.
