CastleLa Roche-Posay (86) Price : $1,428,100 ($3,321 / m²)
In the heart of a tourist region, between Futuroscope, Angles-sur-l'Anglin (listed as one of France's most beautiful villages) and the Creuse valley, close to La Roche Posay, an internationally-renowned spa resort, this château in a dominant position, nestled in a peaceful rural setting in the immediate vicinity of the Brenne Regional Park, benefits from an exceptional natural setting. It combines the prestige of a place steeped in history with a rare location, just a few minutes from all amenities. Fast access to Châtellerault and Poitiers (TGV station, airport).
The château comprises a small pavilion to the north, which appears to date back to the 15th century, and a second, more imposing building, arranged in a barely perceptible L- or even U-shape.
The whole rests on a platform supported by buttresses.
The oldest pavilion, nestling in the northeast corner, takes the form of a tall square tower with a flat-tiled hip roof. This building has preserved its fine chamfered openings with projecting sills. On its southeast corner, it is flanked by a hexagonal tower with an elegant flat-tiled pyramidal roof, also featuring remarkable openings, including a magnificent window with an accolade lintel adorned with a carved escutcheon.
The main body of the château is a rectangular dwelling topped by a flat-tiled gable roof. The south-east façade features 3 bays on the first level and 5 on the second, while a small, solitary dormer lights up the attic.
At the north-west corner, a circular tower with a conical flat-tiled roof and half-roof completes the ensemble.
A similar tower rises not far from the south corner and is linked to the dwelling by a lower, single-storey wing with a canted slate roof and an attic storey, lit by elegant triangular pediment dormers. This wing appears to have been built at a later date than the rest of the building.
The layout of the two round towers suggests that they were an integral part of the original château enclosure, whose main dwelling would have been represented by the aforementioned north pavilion.
In the last light of day, the warm hue of the tiles lends the building a particularly welcoming atmosphere.
