CHÂTEAU DE MARQUEIN
A listed Renaissance château just 30 minutes from Toulouse

Set within 12 hectares of fully enclosed parkland, Château de Marquein stands on a natural rise, its commanding silhouette overlooking the surrounding countryside. With no immediate neighbours, the estate enjoys a remarkable natural setting and exceptional privacy, just thirty minutes from Toulouse.

Over recent years, the property has undergone an extensive restoration programme to preserve its structure and secure its future. The roof, windows and exterior joinery, electrical installation and heating system are all new. These major works mark an essential stage in the revival of this historic residence and provide a solid foundation for the next chapter.

The château now offers the opportunity to continue this restoration and create interiors that reflect its architecture, history and the aspirations of its future owners. The remaining work provides scope to shape a personal way of life while respecting the property’s heritage.

Outside, a heated saltwater swimming pool and jacuzzi invite relaxation in the peace and privacy of the estate.

The château’s former farm buildings and numerous outbuildings further enrich the property. Former stables, barns, a caretaker’s house and a spacious four-bedroom guest cottage provide additional accommodation and versatile spaces for entertaining and future projects. Together, they offer considerable potential for a family estate, cultural activities, events or hospitality, subject to the necessary permissions.

An impressive historic residence, with substantial restoration already completed, ready to be brought to life and preserved for generations to come.

Castle Plaigne (11)

Beautifully restored medieval château, dating from the 13th century, set in the heart of the beautiful green French countryside, in the south of France, within the unspoiled Aude region. The property is located just 15 minutes from the renowned medieval town of Mirepoix, well known for its remarkable cathedral, considered unique in France, and for its vibrant and lively market. Often referred to as “the Uzès of the Aude” or “Little Uzès”, Mirepoix is appreciated for its iconic arcaded main square and its animated markets, reflecting the authentic spirit of southern France. Ideally positioned between Toulouse and the historic city of Carcassonne, both reachable in approximately 45 minutes, the château combines tranquillity with excellent accessibility. Motorway access is 15 minutes away, while TGV train stations and international airports are within easy reach. Originally built in the 13th century by Guillaume de Plaigne, a Cathar lord, the château remained in the same family until 1688. It was then acquired by François-Paul de Béon-Masse-Cazeaux, Grand Prior of the Order of Malta in Toulouse, who transformed it into a Commandery of the Order of Saint John. It became the largest and most recent commandery in the Languedoc region and remained under the ownership of the Order of Malta until the French Revolution. The château has retained the spirit of its medieval origins while benefiting from a careful restoration, carried out over two generations. Surrounded by a park with mature trees, it offers a calm and refreshing atmosphere, enhanced by the presence of the Great Hall of the Knights, a key feature of the property’s historic character. The property offers 16 double bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms, including 12 bedrooms within the château and 4 bedrooms in an independent cottage, allowing accommodation for up to 32 guests. Additional features include a small chapel set within a tower, a refined swimming pool designed as a natural basin, and facilities suitable for private gatherings and discreet events. The estate extends over 14 hectares of organically farmed land, located in a protected natural and touristic area, within a Natura 2000 valley. A range of outbuildings and service areas complete the property, including catering spaces, storage rooms, garages, cellars and attics. This château offers a rare balance between history, serenity and accessibility. It will appeal both to those wishing to continue a discreet hospitality or event activity, and to a family seeking an elegant country residence, combining timeless character with modern comfort.

Castle Caraman (31)

Near Toulouse, in the heart of the Lauragais region, this castle offers a rare presence: that of an ancient, structured place, steeped in history, yet already geared towards hospitality, events, and business. It is reached via a long driveway that gradually establishes the atmosphere. The estate then reveals itself in all its grandeur, with its spacious rooms, tower, chapel, outbuildings, courtyards, ponds, and approximately 9 hectares of parkland. Together, they form a unique place, both preserved and private, yet accessible enough to support a true destination project. This castle is more than just a prestigious residence. It forms a complete property complex, designed around multiple uses: receptions, accommodation, private or professional events, charming stays, gîtes, bed and breakfast rooms, seminars, private retreats, or a family residence with complementary activities. The main castle retains the hallmarks of grand historic estates: elegant reception rooms, fireplaces, a stone staircase, a vaulted cellar, a chapel, numerous bedrooms, spacious circulation areas, and abundant natural light streaming through certain façades. The atmosphere is authentic, with a depth found only in places that have stood the test of time. The outbuildings add a more operational dimension to the estate. A large reception hall, complemented by adjoining spaces, a professional kitchen, restrooms, and technical areas, allows for the organization of large-scale events. The site also offers independent accommodation units, enhancing its appeal for tourism, events, or hospitality-related activities. Outside, the park provides a sense of openness. The ponds, the surrounding walls, the swimming pool, the distinct courtyards, and the landscaped vistas create a succession of atmospheres. Some spaces invite entertaining, others encourage quiet contemplation. It is this duality that gives the estate its richness: it can host gatherings, bring people together, but also preserve privacy. The geographical location is a significant asset. Caraman benefits from a sought-after rural setting, while remaining connected to Toulouse, its economic hub, its international airport, and major transport routes. For both domestic and international clientele, this proximity allows for a combination of heritage, accessibility, and the art of living in Southwest France. The Lauragais region, the former Pays de Cocagne (Land of Plenty), further enhances the appeal of the location. Charming villages, rolling landscapes, the Canal du Midi heritage, Revel, Sorèze, Lake Saint-Ferréol, and the Montagne Noire (Black Mountain) create a cohesive tourist environment, capable of supporting a high-end hospitality or resort project. This estate is ideal for a buyer with a visionary approach. It would be equally suitable for a heritage investor, an event or hospitality professional, or a family wishing to develop a vibrant, elegant, and unique venue. The property already possesses a strong foundation: a history, capacity, reception areas, accommodations, a well-structured park, and a strategic proximity to Toulouse. It now calls for a fresh perspective, a thoughtful redesign, and a repositioning that lives up to its potential. A castle for hosting, passing on traditions, developing, and reinventing. A rare estate, not frozen in its past, but ready to write a new chapter.

Castle Villefranche-de-Lauragais (31)

Between Toulouse and Carcassonne, in the heart of the preserved landscapes of Lauragais, this remarkable character property reveals the elegance of 19th-century architecture in an exceptional natural environment. Located on a wooded park of about 3 hectares with century-old trees, wells, and a spring, the estate includes a prestigious castle and three independent gîtes totaling 12 suites. Fully restored two years ago, the whole combines historical charm, modern comfort, and high-end development potential. Built in 1880, the estate develops nearly 800 m² of living space spread between the main house and its dependencies. From the moment you arrive, the castle imposes its elegant appearance with its tall towers, distinctive façade, and a large south-facing terrace offering an unobstructed view of the surrounding countryside. The three independent gîtes cover 317 m². They allow for considering high-end hospitality, event, or tourism activities in a particularly sought-after sector. The activity can be immediately resumed thanks to a fully operational structure sold turnkey if desired. The main castle itself has 477 m² of living space divided into 9 rooms, including 6 suites. The bright volumes, preserved decorative elements, and restored tapestries in the same style attest to the care given to the renovation and respect for the historic character of the place. Technical features meet current standards for a prestigious property: central heating with heat pump, underfloor heating on the ground floor, reversible air conditioning in bedrooms, double glazing on many openings, and a high-performance Wi-Fi network throughout the estate. The roof and masonry have been carefully maintained, providing an immediately exploitable property without work to be done. The top floor features large light-filled open spaces, particularly suitable for organizing seminars, wellness retreats, private events, or artistic projects. A remarkable vaulted stone cellar of about 60 m² completes this rare property. Much of the furniture, household linen, and bedding is included in the sale, allowing for immediate activity restart or quick installation in privileged conditions. The property benefits from a sought-after location near Lake Ganguise, the bastides of Revel and Mirepoix, the Canal du Midi listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and the famous medieval city of Carcassonne. Toulouse and its international airport are accessible in just 35 minutes via the A61 and the Mediterranean sea is at 1h 20mn. An exceptional residence combining heritage elegance, contemporary features, and strong valuation potential in one of the most sought-after sectors in the South.
