Exclusively, just 15 minutes from Angoulême and its TGV station connecting to Paris in 1 hour 45 minutes, the Château de La Rochandry stands majestically on its rocky spur, having watched over the verdant Boëme Valley for centuries. Listed as a Historic Monument, it embodies the history and prestige of the grand Charente residences. Rebuilt in the 19th century on the foundations of an old fortified castle, it offers approximately 890 m² of living space and a subtle balance between architectural character and modern comfort. From the moment you enter, the tone is set: a magnificent 70 m² hall is enlivened by a double-helix staircase. The reception rooms – living room, library, dining room – benefit from generous proportions and abundant natural light. The eat-in kitchen and service areas harmoniously complete the ground floor. Upstairs, a gallery leads to several bedrooms, a boudoir, a dressing room, and shower rooms or bathrooms, creating a structured and elegant sleeping area. The second floor offers additional bedrooms as well as rooms that can be adapted to suit various needs: extra suites, workspaces, workshops, or a games room. A large attic offers further development potential. Heritage features enhance the uniqueness of the property: stained-glass windows bearing coats of arms, a vaulted room, an underground passage beneath the building, an adjoining chapel… Every detail evokes the soul of the château. The outbuildings – a guest house, a barn, sheds, and workshops – offer a multitude of possibilities. The estate extends over nearly 10 hectares of meadows and woods crossed by the Boeme River, with a swimming pool and an old windmill, in a protected natural setting. A rare property, both majestic and intimate, ideal for an ambitious family project or as a reception residence in the heart of the Charente region. Agency fees: 5% including VAT, payable by the buyer. Price excluding agency fees: €1,650,000.

Castle Angouleme (16)

Located 15 minutes from Angoulême, a city of art and history, and the TGV train station, this charming and characterful little castle has remained in the same family for centuries. Standing next to a charming Romanesque church and a splendid lime tree, from the top of its rock, it overlooks a wooded and hilly valley : the view is splendid and breathtaking. It is nestled in a green setting, while the village and all shops (butcher, bakery, and convenience store open 7 days a week) are a one-minute walk away. The property is also close to many hiking trails. The owners have taken great care to restore their property while respecting its character. The floors have been preserved (terracotta tiles, rammed earth, and forged nail-worked floors). You will journey through the ages, from prehistory (a cave and its silos carved into the rock below), through the medieval and classical periods, to the romantic 19th century. Built in the 13th century, then modified in the 15th and 18th centuries, the castle offers on the ground floor a kitchen with a terracotta floor, a dining room with a wooden floor and fireplace, an entrance hall with a terracotta floor with a main wooden staircase and rammed earth floor. This room gives access to a shower room with a small bedroom above, as well as a first boiler room with an oil and wood boiler. You then enter the music room with a wooden fireplace, on parquet flooring with Persian walnut paneling. At the end of the hallway with terracotta tiles, a bedroom has been converted into the old kitchen, revealing a superb fireplace with a rotisserie and a hexagonal terracotta floor. The hallway also gives access to a shower room and a second boiler room with an oil boiler. From the courtyard, another entrance on a stone slab, with a wooden service staircase, and a WC at the end, gives access to a small apartment comprising a bedroom on the ground floor (the Blasons bedroom) and a bedroom on the mezzanine, as well as an adjoining shower room with WC, and a private courtyard. On the first floor, the wooden landing opens onto a red bed bedroom with parquet flooring and a fireplace, along with a large bathroom/shower/WC with ship's-deck parquet flooring. Above the vestibule, a library corridor with wooden flooring leads to a living room with oak flooring and a fireplace. The staircase in the tower is used as a cabinet of curiosities and provides access below to a study. On the other side of the corridor, a dining room converted from a former bedroom, with parquet flooring and a fireplace, features a small kitchen and an adjoining bathroom. A corridor with stairs leads to a bedroom with wooden flooring and a fireplace, and to a medieval bedroom with wooden flooring and a fireplace, with a private bathroom and WC, also accessible via the service staircase. The second floor contains the attic, a bedroom, a bathroom, and another room. The castle's roofs are very recent (from 2011 to 2018), and the tiles are all fixed to prevent the roof caps from slipping. The barns benefited from the same precautions during the renovations in 2018 and 2023. The sanitation system is to be redone, with the possibility of connecting to the communal network. A charming old sheepfold could inspire many projects (yoga room, guest house, etc.). Comprising approximately 100 sq.mt of living space on one level, it features a large living room with an open kitchen (53 sq.mt), two bedrooms, a laundry room, a bathroom/shower room, and a separate toilet. Many outbuildings allow for the realization of beautiful projects: barns on the sheepfold side, and a garage and a barn on the church side. The romantic garden features a beautiful masonry swimming pool (13.50 x 4.50), built in 2012 and heated by a Zodiac heat pump. The gray liner is new (June 2024) and of superior quality (90° thickness), with glass and chlorine filtration. Nearly 14 hectares of woods and meadows surround the property. Note the presence of a well and a 60 m³ rainwater tank. Not far from Angoulême, this property is 10 minutes from a shopping area (Carrefour, Leroy Merlin, etc.), while the nearest shops are within walking distance. Sale price including fees : 1,166,000 euros. Buyer's fees. Fee : 6 % VAT of the price excluding fees. Sale price excluding fees : 1,100,000 euros. Energy class : E. Climate class : D. Estimated annual energy costs for standard use : between 11,571 and 15,655 euros per year. Prices indexed to January 1st, 2021.

Perched atop a quaint village, a mere 20-minute journey from Angoulême, this exquisite château, a 15th-century marvel, enjoys the prestigious status of a Historic Monument. Encircled by ancient stone fortifications, it is set amidst a picturesque domain of fields, forests, and agricultural land, presenting a unique chance to acquire a piece of French heritage that has been meticulously preserved. Entering through an impressive 17th-century fortified entrance, recognized as one of the region’s most distinguished, the château spans roughly 850 m² of elegantly restored living space, maintaining numerous original architectural elements. The northern exterior exhibits a medieval ambiance with its towers, defensive gaps, and small towers supported by sturdy buttresses, while the south side, revamped in the 19th century, showcases a romantic 'Troubadour Gothic' style with intricate masonry and elaborate Gothic fenestration. A helical stone staircase in a polygonal tower links the upper stories, revealing expansive views of the verdant environs. Inside, the château features: • A domed entryway, opulent reception halls, dining rooms, and culinary spaces distributed over four floors. • 9 sleeping chambers, 3 washrooms, and supplementary living quarters. • A subterranean level housing wine cellars, service rooms, and workspaces. • Attic areas and adaptable spaces in the roof. The grounds host several auxiliary structures: a historic stable complex with an outdoor staircase, a sizable barn, a guardian’s dwelling, ateliers, and secondary buildings. An ancient square pigeon house stands atop a prayer room on the lower level. An early Romanesque church, once serving the local parish, enhances the estate’s architectural and spiritual essence. Listed as a Historic Monument, protected elements include the château and church’s external walls and roofs, the pigeon house, the grand entryway, and the churchyard, which contains archaeological sites. An estate of remarkable distinction and magnitude, perfectly suited for a private home, cultural sanctuary, or conservation venture, all set against a serene, scenic backdrop with convenient city access.
