Ref.4421 : Beautiful medieval castle for sale near Parthenay
Nestling in the heart of the Deux-Sèvres region, near Parthenay, this handsome château stands elegantly, bearing witness to a rich historical past. Its walls, steeped in history, seem to whisper tales of the knights and lords who once walked these grounds. Overlooking the peaceful countryside, surrounded by greenery, it embodies both the grandeur of yesteryear and the timeless charm of the French countryside. It is located close to the shops, with quick access to Poitiers train station and the motorway.
Behind the large entrance porch, from the courtyard adorned with an old well, you can see the two main buildings, planted at right angles to each other, as well as a chapel adjoining the main building.
These three stone buildings are covered in round tiles.
In the centre, the main building opens onto a door of honour. On its facade, traces of two doors can be seen, as well as the remains of an old tower that would have housed a spiral staircase serving the ground and ground floors. The other facade of this main building overlooks the Thouet valley.

To the right, the main lounge and a small lounge all with fireplace and study/workshop in the tower. Large granite staircase leading to the upper levels, a room and utility room.
