THE CHATEAU
The remnants of the chateau which date from the late 13th or early 14th century are located to the side of the two houses. Two impressive oak doors with decorative ironwork give on to a large central courtyard which is alive with roses and other flowering plants in the summer. Around the central courtyard, the original walls provide a very private area with many interesting features including two towers, a room with a fine vaulted Gothic ceiling, and an old residence which has been partially restored.
The land
The land extends in all to about 7,3 ha. Adjacent to the chateau is a meadow of 1,5 ha, and there are two other meadows close by, all of which are suitable for grazing or hay. The remaining land consists of a number of unadjoining but nearby plots of wood and scrubland on the edge of the valley.
The pool
The swimming pool measures 16m x 8m with a reinforced liner, surrounded by a composite decking area and surrounded by an approved security fence. Pump house providing storage for pool furniture equipment and products.
Services
Two septic tanks, mains water and electricity, fibre internet available, 4G signal, TV by satellite with both UK and French channels and oil-fired heating in main house and electric heating in the second house and studio.
Business
Currently successfully let during the summer season from Easter to All Saints Day and potential for winter lets as well. Potential to use the chateau for events in association with the gites? Could be unique!!
Our opinion
A rare opportunity to own two houses with a studio, swimming pool, grounds, woods and pasture of 7,3 ha and the ruins of a 13th century chateau
