Some properties transcend the centuries without ever losing their soul. Set in the heart of the Deux-Sèvres countryside in Nouvelle-Aquitaine, this historic château, whose origins date back to 1081, offers a rare lifestyle defined by character, tranquillity and timeless appeal, just 1 hour and 15 minutes from La Rochelle.
Set within approximately 2 hectares of private grounds, this remarkable residence offers around 360 m² of living space, combining authentic architectural features, generous proportions and an exceptional natural setting. The property comprises 10 rooms, including 7 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms or shower rooms, alongside spacious reception areas, a library / TV room and a principal bedroom with a private balcony overlooking the grounds.
Inside, original stone walls, exposed beams, a magnificent fireplace and a distinctive circular kitchen create an atmosphere of understated elegance, where historic character meets contemporary living. Extensive restoration work has already been undertaken, with approximately 75–80% completed, offering the opportunity to bring the project to fruition while preserving the château’s unique identity and heritage.
Outside, the estate reveals a private landscape of remarkable beauty, shaped by approximately 150 mature trees, a pond of around 900 m², a natural spring and long water channels that bring movement and depth to the surroundings. A terrace overlooking the gardens naturally extends the living spaces outdoors, while a swimming pool awaiting restoration and the remains of a historic structure offer further possibilities for enhancement.
Secluded and private without feeling isolated, the property lends itself equally well to an exceptional family residence or a hospitality venture, such as a boutique bed and breakfast or luxury gîtes, subject to the relevant planning permissions and authorisations.
Close to charming villages and historic market towns across western France, with Niort providing fast rail connections to Paris, the château enjoys a rare balance of privacy, accessibility and an enviable country lifestyle.
A truly distinctive residence, where nearly a millennium of history meets the beauty of an unspoilt landscape. A place to make your own, bring to life and pass on to future generations.
