Historic Architecture: Pleasure residence redesigned, blending past and present.
Exclusive Amenities: Private chapel and swimming pool for a unique lifestyle.

Near Angoulême, a 19th-century castle and its 100-hectare estate. The estate, accessible at various points from several departmental roads, extends over more than 98 hectares of contiguous land. Nearly 40 hectares consist of a park, woods, some meadows, and various buildings, all interspersed with old riding paths. The remaining approximately 60 hectares are operated under a rural lease and include just over 3 hectares of vineyards. Documented since the 18th century, the estate was originally organized around a dwelling and buildings dedicated to agricultural exploitation. Around 1890, the dwelling was significantly remodeled to become a pleasure residence, while rural and viticultural activities continued on the property. From this dual purpose, there remain a stone washhouse, a wine cellar, a press, old vats, stables, and cellars. Additionally, there is a private chapel, whose cult use is confirmed by episcopal authorization. Today, the castle offers nearly 900 square meters spread over three levels, serviced by two staircases. The main staircase connects the reception rooms on the ground floor to the private apartments on the first floor. Conversely, a secondary staircase located in a square tower serves all levels, up to the former staff quarters and service rooms on the top floor. The estate also includes a caretaker's house, a hunting lodge, a shed where there is still an old laundry washing device and a bread oven, as well as two ruins and a swimming pool. Several buildings, like the castle, require significant restoration work and modernization of their technical facilities.

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.

Just 8 km from Angoulême and its high-speed rail station, the Château de Balzac enjoys a privileged location in a protected and easily accessible environment.
