In the early 1990s, a beautiful bond of affection was formed between this divine 15th-century château and its new owners, true guardians of history.
After being neglected for many years, this stunning gem, yearning to reclaim its former brilliance, has been simply cherished and brought back to life.
From the façades to the roofs, from the exterior gardens to the interior walls, this noble residence has been gradually redesigned and restored over the years, meticulously preserving its authenticity and ensuring the utmost comfort for its guests.
The restoration work is truly exceptional.
Nestled discreetly at the heart of its contiguous 93-hectare estate, the Château has been awarded a 5-star luxury furnished accommodation status by Charente-Maritime Tourisme, making it a true haven of peace.
Set in a protected and serene environment, this unique and enchanting property exudes an undeniable tranquility amidst nature's embrace.
The property encompasses nearly 1,500 m² of living space and just over 2,500 m² of usable area, spread across the ISMH-listed château, the ISMH-listed building with its watchtowers, the splendid Orangery, as well as numerous dependencies and annexes.
One easily succumbs to the charm of the luminous reception rooms, spacious suites, and the wellness area, featuring a gym, hammam, swimming pool with a vast terrace, and a delightful pool house.
The magic of this timeless place extends far beyond its walls. The estate boasts gardens with ponds, meadows, orchards with over 1,000 fruit trees, 23 hectares of woodland, 4,000 m² of ponds with a water source adjacent to a river, a fountain, a well, private hunting grounds, remarkable plantations of Napoleonic pines, rare maples, and various varieties of lime, elder, and hornbeam trees. Projection plans, including a rose garden, labyrinth, vegetable gardens, and a pond with a bridge, have been meticulously crafted by a renowned landscape architect and are available.
Ideally situated just 30 minutes away from the Atlantic coast beaches of Charente-Maritime, in a peaceful commune, this extraordinary estate offers endless possibilities for both family and commercial use, including hosting receptions, events, operating gîtes and bed and breakfast establishments, pursuing equestrian projects, or catering to car collectors, and more.
Bordeaux international airport can be reached within 1½ hours, while La Rochelle TGV station is just an hour away.
This château, with its meticulously restored period features, is sold fully furnished (with only a few furniture pieces excluded).
To be enchanted by the allure of this noble property is an unforgettable experience.
To be chosen as the future owner(s) by the château itself is an esteemed privilege.
