Full Description
Built in 1870 by Charles Franchet, this Xix-inspired castle? embodies French architecture at its most majestic. Its glazed roofs and elegant silhouette bear witness to exceptional craftsmanship. With a useful surface area of 1,600 m², including more than 1,000 m² of living space, it now offers 16 bedrooms and splendid living volumes. The monumental entrance hall, with its ceremonial staircase and refined woodwork, immediately sets the tone. On the ground floor, the complex includes large reception areas, a library, a boudoir, a renovated kitchen, etc., as well as a very large suite with its Roger-Tallon staircase, which combines the charm of heritage and modernity. Thanks to its large arched windows and its small wood joinery, the castle is distinguished by an exceptional luminosity, a real common thread in each room. The estate extends over 50 hectares in one piece, alternating meadows, woods, a wooded park with majestic species, a pond, a swimming pool, and even a motocross field. An ideal setting for an equestrian project, a prestigious family property or a hotel and event project. A chapel, a caretaker's house and a garage/carport complete the set. It is offered fully furnished, with refined furniture in perfect harmony with the spirit of the place.
