Ref: 4420 : Beautiful château near Agen
Ideally situated in the heart of the Lot et Garonne region, the château is close to Agen yet in a peaceful setting.
After passing through the large gates, take a small dirt track to discover this elegant 19th-century château, hidden away by 11.93 acres (4ha 83a 12ca) of woodland.
The setting is peaceful, yet only a quarter of an hour from transport, shops and amenities on the main road.
This is a property on a human scale, where a family atmosphere reigns.
The owners have placed great emphasis on careful decoration, combining passionately sourced antique furniture with more modern equipment for everyday comfort. They have also designed the property so that it can accommodate guests or family while retaining private areas.
The 530 sqm of living space is divided as follows :
- The ground floor comprises an entrance hall with a dining room to the right, a kitchen, a scullery and a utility room with direct access to one of the wings of the château that has been converted into a reception room. To the left of the entrance hall is a lounge, a study and a bedroom with its own shower room. The other wing contains the boiler room and the two gites that can only be accessed from the outside. Access to the first floor is via a hall next to the entrance.
- The first floor comprises a large landing with 4 bedrooms each with its own shower room, a linen room and a sitting room.
- The second floor comprises an attic with two bedrooms and en-suite shower rooms in the towers.
The 2 gîtes of approx. 40 sqm each were recently created in one of the wings of the château and are ideal for family holidays. They are comfortable and beautifully decorated, and both have a terrace overlooking a wooded area.
In the second wing of the château, a 90 sqm reception room has been converted. It communicates with the scullery and is a natural extension of the living space. This luminous space has all the amenities and a cellar and could become a home in its own right.
An outside area of approx. 40 sqm, covered but not enclosed, is equipped with a floor and furniture, making it possible to gather around a bread oven in a wooded setting.
An unobtrusive tin shed covering more than 500 sqm can be used to store equipment for routine maintenance.
There is also the possibility of renovating a 2-storey building close to the second access to the property, which could be used for ancillary accommodation such as a caretaker's cottage.
The chateau is surrounded by several acres of lush green parkland featuring a variety of rare trees, inviting you to take a stroll along the paths around the property, while offering lovely views of the surrounding countryside.
The round swimming pool with travertine decking and wooden terrace punctuates the space on the front side.
All the plots of land making up the property surround the château, forming a setting that enhances it.
The layout of the different areas means that you can maintain the exterior yourself.
There are two entrances, although today one of the 2 is preferred.
Total area : 11.93 acres
