For Sale
Tucked away at the end of a private driveway, this Chateau in the picturesque South West of France offers a serene retreat on just over 13.7 hectares of lush woodlands and parkland. Boasting 476 m2 of living space and an attic ripe for conversion, the property presents a unique opportunity for both relaxation and development.
With its historic charm and modern amenities, the Chateau features original details such as Carreaux de Ciment flooring and elegant "boiserie". This property has served as a much loved family home for a number of years, and is now coming onto the market exclusively with French Character Homes. Flooded with natural light, the spacious rooms provide an inviting atmosphere for family gatherings or entertaining guests. Some work should be envisaged to bring the Chateau up to contemporary tastes, such as redoing bathrooms or adding en-suites, but the building itself offers tremendous appeal to anyone willing to undertake some renovation.
On the groundfloor one finds a large entrance hall, drawing room, dining room, family kitchen, morning room and generous utility room together with a WC and shower. On the first floor seven double bedrooms, a family bathroom and separate shower, office space and en-suite to the master bedroom complete the ensemble. However, this is not the only living space available. A discreet staircase takes you to a spectacular roof terrace that provides uninterrupted views out over the rolling landscape of the Chalosse countryside - and the perfect spot to stargaze long into the night on summer evenings. From the roof terrace, the tower offers two rooms to use as you see fit - an observatory perhaps ? A hidden library or simply a secret, quiet place in which to retreat and contemplate....
Outside, a large saltwater pool surrounded by a natural stone terrace offers a refreshing oasis on sunny days. Architectural plans for a separate guest house within the barn further enhance the property's potential, making it ideal for both residential living and commercial ventures.
Conveniently located near several charming market towns including Saint Sever and Eguenie les Bains, this Chateau offers easy access to amenities while still providing a tranquil escape. With proximity to major transportation hubs, including Pau and Bordeaux airports, the property ensures seamless connectivity to the rest of the world.
Discover the timeless beauty and endless possibilities of this enchanting Chateau, where every moment is an opportunity to create cherished memories in the heart of the gentle countryside of South West France.
