Castle Marmande (47)
Built at the end of the Renaissance in the Agenais region, this brick and stone château overlooks the Garonne Valley. It has preserved the essence of its original architecture, including its remarkable grand staircase and some unique elements of its late 17th-century interior decor. Four centuries later, it awaits a new owner to write the next chapter of its history.The estate extends over 5 hectares, including 4 hectares of cultivated agricultural land. The built structure includes the lordly part of the château, overlooking an east-facing terrace, and an entrance pavilion that once featured a drawbridge.On the noble floor, nearly 500 m² of reception rooms are arranged in a row: an old great room of 160 m², two former salons of 80 m² each, and two 40 m² rooms located in the corner pavilions. At the center of the composition, the grand staircase leads to a complete vaulted basement, while the upper floor includes an unfinished room. An adjoining apartment also offers about 50 m² of living space.The history of this château begins in the late 13th century when a fortified place was erected on a promontory to control the valley. The territory successively came under English and French domination until the end of the Hundred Years' War.At the end of the 16th century, the fortress was dismantled to make way for a more comfortable stately residence. This ambitious lordly construction, characteristic of the reign of Henry IV, stands out for its mannerist architecture: diamond-pointed dressed stone framed mullioned windows, rigorous symmetry, and skillful composition.Under the reign of Louis XIV, the lands were granted marquisate status, and the château received a very refined interior decor. Some remnants of this remain, notably a hooded fireplace and a vaulted ceiling painted with a fresco depicting the goddess Flora, attributed to the school of Nicolas Poussin.Seized during the Revolution, the château was forgotten until 1818, when a demolition campaign was launched. Fortunately interrupted, it only took away the top level. In the 19th century, the old lordly residence even served as a tobacco drying house.Today, the château awaits a major restoration. Its volumes, high ceilings, monumental staircase, and the remnants of its decorations still bear witness to its peak period. Its graceful and orderly architecture offers remarkable material for a revival project, whether it is a private residence or another use compatible with the place.Are you inspired and ready to discover this château? We will be happy to present its architecture, history, and restoration possibilities, and reveal some of its secrets.Fees included: 7.5% VAT at the buyer's expense. Price excluding fees: €400,000.

Castle Bourges (18)
Eight centuries of history have shaped this castle without ever erasing its medieval identity. Behind its walls and towers, this former fortress reveals a succession of decors and layouts, from the guard room to the Second Empire apartments. A unique architectural heritage, set in a 27-hectare estate, which today awaits a new life.Located at the borders of Bourbonnais and Berry, about twenty minutes from shops and services, the estate includes a castle of approximately 850 m² of living space, numerous outbuildings, and a large romantic park. The whole, partially classified as a historical monument, requires important restoration work.The history of the site dates back to the late 12th century, when a watchtower was built under the reign of Philip Augustus. By the 14th century, it became the keep of a powerful fortress, surrounded by ramparts, corner towers, and deep moats. Part of this defensive system remains visible, notably the passages fitted into the thickness of the walls, which once allowed movement shielded from view.Over the centuries, the fortress became a pleasurable residence. Reception rooms open onto gardens, and new decors enrich the interiors. Under the Second Empire, a spectacular transformation gave it its current silhouette, with high slate roofs and the neo-Gothic crown of the keep, whose design is attributed to Viollet-le-Duc.Inside, the guard room, chapel, spiral staircases, sculpted fireplaces, frescoes, and antique parquet flooring testify to these different eras. The succession of monumental spaces and more intimate rooms reveals the architectural richness of the castle.The outbuildings, some dating back to the 18th century, include former service buildings and a large hall once intended for receptions.Surrounding the castle is a romantic park of 27 hectares, composed of meadows, gardens, and woods. Plane trees, giant sequoias, and centenarian trees accompany the views of the fortress. A basin, two sculpted lions, and the remnants of a former pleasure garden recall the refinement of the place, while a vast meadow uncovers the imposing silhouette of the castle.Today, this property offers an ambitious restoration project. Its architecture, the diversity of its buildings, and the expanse of the estate allow for various uses, in respect of its heritage character.Are you inspired and ready to discover this castle? We will be happy to present its architecture, its history, and the possibilities its restoration offers, and to reveal some of its secrets.Fees included of 5.88% VAT to be borne by the buyer. Price excluding fees €850,000. Not subject to DPE.

Castle Niort (79)
Majestic castle from the early 17th century, largely restored in the heart of an intact baroque estate. Built at the edge of a river, this exceptional castle embodies the transition between medieval heritage and the emergence of classic French architecture. From this former stronghold, a remarkable 15th-century keep remains. In the early 17th century, the medieval complex was reimagined under the influence of a great family from Poitou, giving rise to an elegant residence inspired by Henry IV, with an H-shaped plan, heralding the Louis XIII style. Behind its sober façades animated with Renaissance decorations and trompe-l'oeil effects, the castle unfolds a coherent interior layout. Organized around a grand staircase, it preserves many original elements: French ceilings, stone and terracotta tile floors, monumental fireplaces, enhanced in the 18th century with refined parquet and marble, and then completed in the 19th century. Designed as a place for both representation and daily life, the ensemble stands out for the harmony of its volumes and the quality of its architecture, both simple and spectacular. The estate, structured since the 17th century, offers a remarkable landscaped setting: a water canal from the former moats, tree-lined perspectives, Renaissance-inspired flower beds, a vegetable garden, an orchard, and woods. The outbuildings complete the ensemble with a vast orangery hosting receptions and events, stables, an old menagerie, and an impressive pigeon loft. A unique property, admirably preserved, this castle offers a vivid reading of four centuries of history and constitutes an architectural testament of rare authenticity.This description has been automatically translated from French.
