Name: Angouleme Castle for Sale | $1,356,271 | 475 m²
Creator: Le Figaro Properties

This château, passed down through the same family for centuries, stands majestically next to a centuries-old lime tree, near a charming Romanesque church. Perched on its rocky promontory, it overlooks a wooded and rolling valley, offering an enchanting setting for this characterful property.
The owners have undertaken careful restoration, respecting the history and soul of this unique place. The roofs of the château and its outbuildings have been entirely renovated. Inside, significant work has been done to modernize while preserving the authenticity of the original materials: terracotta floors and tiles, wooden floors with forged nails, woodwork, stone fireplaces—each detail exudes the charm of yesteryear. This home takes you on a journey through time, blending medieval, classical, and 19th-century romantic eras.
With its 7 bedrooms, 5 modern bathrooms, a fully equipped kitchen, and vast reception spaces, this château offers all the comfort needed for a large family, multigenerational living, or even a tourism project. The spacious attic, with an additional 250 m² to develop, opens up numerous possibilities for expansion.
The entrance, marked by an imposing wooden gate, and the proximity of the Romanesque church enhance the timeless charm of this property. The romantic park, featuring a heated pool, is a peaceful haven that also includes several outbuildings, ready to host new projects. The renovated former sheepfold, a large additional barn, and an adjoining arboretum complete the property.
Located in an idyllic natural setting, the property is within immediate proximity to essential shops (butcher, bakery, grocery store), just a minute's walk away. A large commercial area is only 10 minutes by car, and the center of Angoulême, with its TGV station, is just 15 minutes away. The airports of Bordeaux and Limoges are 1h30 and 1h20 away, respectively.
This château is a true invitation to live a timeless dream, combining charm, history, and modern comfort.

Just 15 minutes from the Angoulême TGV station (Paris in 1 hour 45 minutes), nestled in a protected natural setting, this château, built in 1746 and remodeled in the 19th century, exudes all the elegance of grand French family homes. Offering approximately 900 sq m of living space, it boasts nearly thirty rooms, including 15 bedrooms complemented by 3 anterooms, several adjoining reception rooms, and a chapel. The proportions are remarkable and retain numerous period features: antique fireplaces, wood paneling, painted ceilings, wall decorations, and expansive views. The estate extends over approximately 40 hectares in a single block, offering complete privacy and unobstructed 360° views from the façade. It includes landscaped parkland, woods, bridle paths, and a promenade leading to a belvedere with panoramic views overlooking the surrounding countryside. A caretaker's house, outbuildings, and a swimming pool complete the property. It is also possible to expand the estate by acquiring, as bare ownership, an additional 60 hectares currently leased, bringing the total land area to nearly 100 contiguous hectares surrounding the château. Located in the immediate vicinity of a village with shops, schools, and public transport, the estate combines absolute tranquility with easy access. Renovation work is required, particularly on the technical systems (heating, electricity, sanitation, plumbing), as well as an interior renovation to reveal the full architectural potential of the property. A rare property, ideal for heritage enthusiasts and those with ambitious projects: a family residence, a reception venue, a hospitality business, or a large-scale cultural project. Agency fees: €57,000 including VAT (4.96%), payable by the buyer (€1,150,000 excluding fees).

Nestled on the fringe of an idyllic village in Charente, this captivating estate gazes upon the serene Échelle Valley, distinguished as a Natura 2000 site for its exceptional biodiversity. An enclave for enthusiasts of nature, historical richness, and genuine charm, the estate sprawls across over 8 hectares, featuring lush meadows, dense woodlands, babbling brooks, an elevated garden, and ancient dry moats etched into the bedrock. It stands as a lively, inspirational sanctuary—ideal for a grand family residence, an artist's retreat, a venue for gatherings, or a unique boutique hotel venture. The centerpiece, a majestic château, spans roughly 500 m² of habitable space (with possibilities to extend up to 600 m²). It captivates with its spaciousness and the abundance of natural light that permeates each room through large, strategically placed windows. Across its three floors, the home boasts eight bedrooms, numerous luminous living areas, a sophisticated dining room, a kitchen brimming with character, a library, and ample storage. Historical elements add to its allure: vintage hardwood floors, weathered terracotta tiles, intricate cornices, fireplaces in stone and decorative wood, and an exquisite elm staircase winding along the stone wall. Each room offers a peaceful retreat—many with breathtaking views of the valley. Encompassed by two ancient towers, the structure's heritage traces back to the 13th century, with a 19th-century renovation marrying historical allure with modern comforts. Adjacent to the château, a remarkable array of outbuildings covers over 1,500 m² on the ground floor. Configured in a U-shape, this complex includes barns, stables, workshops, winemaking facilities, and versatile spaces. Two have been elegantly renovated: a 105 m² exhibition space and a 180 m² guinguette-style venue, perfect for hosting various events. The stand-alone guesthouse, dubbed 'La Maisonnette,' provides roughly 115 m² of quaint, fashionable living space: an open-concept living area with a wood-burning stove, limewashed stone walls, visible beams, and three bedrooms, two with private baths. It's an intimate, inviting abode for hosting friends, guests, or holiday renters. Merely a 10-minute drive from Angoulême, a city celebrated for its cultural vibrancy and festivals. This location offers convenient access to the TGV for Paris (2h), Bordeaux (30 mins), Roissy-CDG (3h), Tours, or Lille. The adjacent village caters to everyday needs. An extraordinary chance for a multitude of possibilities—a dwelling, a haven for guests, a creative space, and a place of communal gathering. A personal legacy within a spectacular natural landscape.

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.
