Castle Lassay-sur-Croisne (41)

This property is situated in the heart of Sologne, a region of woods and ponds renowned for its sumptuous hunting grounds and estates, and bordering Touraine with the Loire Valley and its châteaux, symbols of the French art of living. In the heart of an unspoilt forest, just outside the village accessible by a discreet lane, the château stands in its own setting, out of sight and out of mind. The moat surrounds a quadrangular platform that was once surrounded by high curtain walls and flanked by four corner towers. Today, only one of these remains and it stands to the east. The drawbridge, now dormant, leads to the châtelet, flanked by two horseshoe-shaped towers with crossbars guarding the entrance. An adjoining building houses the vaulted guards' room, one of the listed historic buildings. Once through the gateway, the medieval, defensive aspect of the north face gives way to an open, light-filled courtyard. The keep is impressively high. Refurbishments carried out over the last century have brought comfort and functionality to this brick-walled building, built between the Middle Ages and the Renaissance, and arranged around a central staircase in a square tower. The monumental fireplaces in the dining room and sitting room are superb. The consecrated chapel, luminous with its large stained glass windows, is also listed. On five floors, the living rooms give way to bedrooms and utility rooms. Part fortress, part manor house, this is a unique residence. Moats, barbicans, crossbars, machicolations, keep, mullioned windows and ornamental shells fortify and dress up this charming castle, forming a perfect ensemble in typical Solognot style. Outside the moat, the outbuildings were restored in the 20th century and house numerous bedrooms, garages, utility rooms, a caretaker's cottage, etc. In the grounds, the vegetable garden has been laid out with numerous flowerbeds. Hardwood and softwood plantations protect the site and surround the meadows around the château. There are a number of accesses and pathways through the park, with no easements.

Castle Romorantin-Lanthenay (41)

Ref.3912 : Magnificent chateau for sale 30 km from Chambord. This exceptional castle is built in the Grande Sologne region, on the border of the wine-growing Sologne, the bocage plateaus of the Touraine Méridionale and the Berry. It stands in the middle of a private and preserved forest that is not disturbed by any easement. A village offering the first services and shops of necessity is 5.5 km away.

The towns of Blois and Vierzon are respectively 35 km and 45 km from the property and have excellent road and rail links as well as a wide range of services. Built at the end of the 15th century by the architect Jacques de Persigny for Lord Philippe du Moulin as a reward for having saved the life of King Charles VIII during the Battle of Fornoue in 1495, this castle has a quadriform plan, surrounded by a moat and flanked by circular towers at each of its corners. It consists of two buildings, the dwelling and the manor house, which are accessed by a drawbridge, now dormant, defended by an entrance gatehouse with a postern and flanked by two towers.

THE MANOR : The manor house, although it has retained certain defensive elements from the Middle Ages such as crossbars, machicolations and barbicans, is betrayed by the presence of mullioned windows and worked dormers, which characterise a Renaissance residence. It is distributed as follows: Ground floor: library with fireplace, stone slab floor, spiral staircase in the tower, guard room with monumental stone fireplace and pointed ceiling, boiler room in the corner tower; 1st floor: bedroom, toilet with WC, bedroom with en-suite bathroom, other room in the tower.

Harmoniously distributed around the castle, the grounds are mainly composed of forest and a few meadows that protect the site. Numerous paths and small private footpaths make it easy to stroll around. In the park, the vegetable garden with its numerous flowerbeds adds a more delicate dimension to the property. This beautiful ensemble perfectly illustrates the picture that is painted of our beloved Sologne as an undisputed reserve of biodiversity, which offers peace and serenity where one can escape in complete tranquillity between forests and waterholes. The whole, subject to a simple management plan, has a total surface area of almost 98.8 acres (40 hectares) in one piece, which is not disturbed by any easement.
