castle with pool for sale Montluçon, France

A human-scale 18th-century chateau in around 4 hectares of parkland, in the countryside around the Bourbonnais sector. The estate spreads out over a surface of approximately 4hectares. The chateau, which was erected in 1758, stands out thanks to its classical architecture, which is typical of grand French residences from the second half of the 18th century. It boasts a symmetrical layout including a central section flanked by two wings, providing structure to the south-facing main facade. In the 19th century, a staircase tower was added to one of the wings. The three-storey residence has a ground floor, first floor and a not yet converted loft beneath a slate Mansard roof, which is punctuated by three gable dormers with triangular pediments as well as by several chimney stacks. Thanks to the tall windows on the facade, the interior is generously bathed in light. The ashlar door and window surrounds, the stringcourses as well as the quoins emphasise the structure’s well-organised appearance. The slender tower provides a picturesque touch and pays witness to the enhancements made in the 19th century, which were nonetheless in keeping with the style of the original construction. Tracks and paths wind through the classically inspired parkland, providing structure and carefully crafted perspectives, faithful to the tradition of French rural properties, designed to combine appearance, comfort and harmony with the natural environment.

Eight centuries of history have shaped this castle without ever erasing its medieval identity. Behind its walls and towers, this former fortress reveals a succession of decors and layouts, from the guard room to the Second Empire apartments. A unique architectural heritage, set in a 27-hectare estate, which today awaits a new life.Located at the borders of Bourbonnais and Berry, about twenty minutes from shops and services, the estate includes a castle of approximately 850 m² of living space, numerous outbuildings, and a large romantic park. The whole, partially classified as a historical monument, requires important restoration work.The history of the site dates back to the late 12th century, when a watchtower was built under the reign of Philip Augustus. By the 14th century, it became the keep of a powerful fortress, surrounded by ramparts, corner towers, and deep moats. Part of this defensive system remains visible, notably the passages fitted into the thickness of the walls, which once allowed movement shielded from view.Over the centuries, the fortress became a pleasurable residence. Reception rooms open onto gardens, and new decors enrich the interiors. Under the Second Empire, a spectacular transformation gave it its current silhouette, with high slate roofs and the neo-Gothic crown of the keep, whose design is attributed to Viollet-le-Duc.Inside, the guard room, chapel, spiral staircases, sculpted fireplaces, frescoes, and antique parquet flooring testify to these different eras. The succession of monumental spaces and more intimate rooms reveals the architectural richness of the castle.The outbuildings, some dating back to the 18th century, include former service buildings and a large hall once intended for receptions.Surrounding the castle is a romantic park of 27 hectares, composed of meadows, gardens, and woods. Plane trees, giant sequoias, and centenarian trees accompany the views of the fortress. A basin, two sculpted lions, and the remnants of a former pleasure garden recall the refinement of the place, while a vast meadow uncovers the imposing silhouette of the castle.Today, this property offers an ambitious restoration project. Its architecture, the diversity of its buildings, and the expanse of the estate allow for various uses, in respect of its heritage character.Are you inspired and ready to discover this castle?

Ref.4860 : Comfortable 19th-C. château overlooking the Cher Valley, just a few minutes from Bourges The property is less than three hours from Paris and a quarter of an hour from Bourges, a major city of art and history at the heart of a thriving economic region where the aerospace and defence industries are particularly well represented. The site is ideally situated in the centre of France, close to two major motorways: the A20 ‘L’Occitane’, linking Brussels and Paris to Toulouse on the one hand, and the A71 ‘L’Arverne’, providing access to Clermont-Ferrand and, beyond that, Montpellier from the capital. We are in the Champagne-Berrichonne region, and more specifically in the Cher Valley. The north-flowing river winds its way through the gently rolling plains of what is still part of the Paris Basin, in a charming valley dotted with small villages. Set apart from one of these villages and situated on high ground, the property enjoys a remarkable view and absolute tranquillity. The key city for this property, Bourges, is a town whose long and rich history naturally made it a prime candidate to become the European Capital of Culture 2028. While we await this year packed with artistic and cultural events, we’ll enjoy strolling through its historic and shopping centre, between the Palais Jacques-Cœur, a masterpiece of Flamboyant Gothic architecture, and Saint-Etienne Cathedral, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. And for fans of French-language music, the Printemps de Bourges has been the festival not to be missed for fifty years. And then, the Sologne region isn’t far away either, nor are the vineyards of Reuilly and Quincy, Berry wines as remarkable in red as in white, traditionally associated with the Loire Valley vineyards. In short, a region where life is good. The château comes into view at the end of a tree-lined driveway some 250 metres long. Built on three levels, including a basement, it has a slate roof. With a square, classical appearance in keeping with the Romantic era, it is flanked to the north and south by two towers with conical roofs, the slates of which have been cut to form a fish-scale pattern. The entrance is on the east side, where only two storeys are visible. The façade features a beautiful arrangement of windows adorned with ornate grilles for the front door and the ground-floor windows; balustrades in the same style decorate the windows on the first floor. The attic is lit by elegant bull’s-eye dormer windows. The opposite façade, to the west, follows the same architectural layout but on a grander scale. The windows are arranged in a straight line across the three storeys of the main building and the towers. The dormer windows, three instead of two, are similar to those on the east façade. Entering via the ground floor, one finds a beautiful entrance hall with a white marble floor featuring cabochon inlays, a pattern repeated throughout the entire level. At the far end, a niche decorated with perspective effects; to the right, a cloakroom with a toilet, then, further on, a first reception room with a beautiful Louis XIII-style fireplace featuring an insert. Next, a beautiful suite of rooms including a study in the north tower, a very light-filled lounge overlooking the valley, a dining room with its monumental Louis XIV-inspired fireplace, and a second study in the south tower. Beyond the dining room, a utility room and a large, well-equipped kitchen. The first floor is accessed via a winding staircase featuring a wrought-iron banister in the same design as the gates and railings. A beautiful landing leads to a bedroom-library with remarkable oak panelling, a master bedroom with an adjoining study, bathroom and dressing room, two adjoining bedrooms with their own shower room in the south tower, and finally a bedroom with its own shower room. Returning to the ground floor, a staircase from the entrance leads down to the garden-level basement. This comprises a spacious living room with a kitchen area. This room opens onto the large terrace and the superb swimming pool, situated slightly below. There is also a bedroom with a study and a shower room, and a laundry/plant room for the swimming pool. Access from this level leads to the cellars, including a wine cellar on gravel. In the attic, a vast open-plan space of approximately 180 square metres; insulated and fitted with water and electricity connections, it is just waiting to be converted. OUTBUILDINGS : The outbuildings include a 10 x 5-metre swimming pool, treated by electrolysis, and four main buildings: - A barn converted into a reception hall meeting public access standards, with a warming-up room and toilet facilities suitable for people with reduced mobility. Above this 115 sqm hall, a space of equivalent size could be converted. - An annexe with 104 msq of living space, comprising 2 or even 3 bedrooms, a living room, kitchen, bathroom and shower room. At the rear, a kennel. - A stable block comprising outbuildings, stables and workshops. A shed used as a garage and woodshed. - The annexe and reception hall make it possible to start a commercial activity without delay. LAND : The grounds, covering a total area of 58 acres, consist of a landscaped, wooded park of around 4 hectares, as well as woods and clearings converted into meadows. These well-maintained meadows cover an area large enough to accommodate horses or ponies. The woods, for their part, give this property its character. With their density and cool shade, they form a contrast to the open, light-filled park that serves as a setting for the château. Containing some very fine specimens of local tree species, they cover most of the grounds. Beautiful bridleways make it easy to explore them, whether for a romantic stroll or to reach the adjoining woodland. The latter, covering an area of around 150 hectares, is home to a rich and diverse array of wildlife that is easy to spot.

Ref.4934 : Beautiful neoclassical château overlooking exceptional English-style parkland, with a pond, gîte and equestrian outbuildings near Bourges In the heart of France, the property is ideally located three and a half hours from Paris and forty-five minutes from Bourges, sometimes referred to as the "capital of the Berry." The main reference town for the property, Bourges is a major city of art and history at the centre of a vibrant economic area where the aerospace and defence industries are particularly well represented. Named European Capital of Culture for 2028, its historic centre and shopping district boast outstanding landmarks such as the Palais Jacques-Cœur, a masterpiece of Flamboyant Gothic architecture, and Saint-Étienne Cathedral, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Located a little further south, the château is well connected to the transport network by a major motorway. The A71, known as "L'Arverne," is close by, offering easy access to Paris to the north via Orléans, and to Clermont-Ferrand to the south, and beyond to Montpellier. The area surrounding the estate is known as the Boischaut Sud, a natural region covering the southern parts of the Indre and Cher departments. Here, the gently rolling plains of the Paris Basin meet the more pronounced foothills of the Massif Central. The landscapes are green, wooded or criss-crossed with hedgerows, with a discreet yet enduring charm. This is "the Berry that takes hold of you and never lets go," as described by George Sand, a native of the region. Fifteen minutes from the property, Saint-Amand-Montrond offers all the necessary amenities (shops, doctors, schools and a hospital). The town is known as France's third-largest centre for gold jewellery manufacturing, after Paris and Lyon. An exhibition venue, the Cité de l'Or, showcases this tradition, established in the late 19th century to serve the great names of the Place Vendôme. Near Saint-Amand, Noirlac Abbey, a jewel of Cistercian architecture, is another major cultural landmark in the region. And for younger visitors, Sam Parc is one of the best amusement parks in the Centre-Val de Loire region. A little further on lies Lignières, a small town well known to horse and donkey lovers. Visitors come to explore the Pôle du Cheval et de l'Âne (Horse and Donkey Centre) or to enjoy the thrill of the fine Lignières-en-Berry racecourse, which offers enthusiasts a long season of equestrian events each year (trotting, flat racing and steeplechase) from March to November. The château is approached along a long, straight drive that runs through the wooded part of the estate. Rising over two storeys plus an attic floor beneath a slate-covered hipped roof, the house is distinguished by its many windows, no fewer than seven per floor, all perfectly aligned. Light floods into this "glass house," a strikingly avant-garde design for its time. A glass canopy over the entrance further enhances this sense of lightness. On the other side, the east façade, also pierced by seven windows per floor, features a projecting three-bay central section crowned by a classical triangular pediment with an oculus. On the ground floor of this projection, three arched openings are separated by engaged Doric columns supporting a plain entablature bearing a coat of arms. Above, the three first-floor windows are topped by carved window heads that echo and embellish the motif of the Doric capital. At the foot of the façade, a balustraded terrace flanked by right-angled staircases offers an exceptional view over the English-style park and its lake below. Returning to the west façade, the house is entered through a hall with a reception area framed by paired columns, leading to the grand turning staircase that serves the upper floors; WC. On the ground floor, all the rooms interconnect in a circular sequence: a large study, a very bright drawing room with a painted ceiling and fireplace, a dining room with a Louis XIV fireplace opening onto the terrace and garden, a kitchen, a butler's pantry and a private sitting room. On the first floor, a fine landing with paired columns and light wood flooring, serving three bedrooms, each with its own shower room or bathroom, and a two-bedroom suite, one with a bathroom and the other with a shower room. On the second floor, beneath the eaves: a landing leading to a large media room, two bedrooms with shower rooms, and a large gym with its own separate shower room. On the lower ground floor, set in the raised basement: a beautiful vaulted kitchen, laundry room, boiler room, wine cellar, larder and cellars. Outbuildings : The property includes a large number of outbuildings, the main ones being: A very attractive gîte with swimming pool, set apart but enjoying lovely views over the park, comprising a living room with kitchenette and wood-burning stove, three bedrooms, a laundry room, a wheelchair-accessible shower room, and a heated outdoor swimming pool measuring 10 by 5 metres with safety fencing.

Réf.4802 : Chateau listed as a Historic Monument and its small chateau in Burgundy, in the heart of the Nièvre The château is situated in Burgundy, in the heart of the Nièvre region, between Nevers and Château-Chinon, on the outskirts of a small town of 900 inhabitants. Formerly the seat of a major medieval seigneury, the town developed on a rocky outcrop overlooking the Aron valley. The Nivernais Canal forms a loop within which the estate is situated. The Aron flows below. It is built on high ground and enjoys a magnificent view over the Nièvre countryside. The Morvan Regional Nature Park is nearby, a preserved natural area. The château is a 30-minute drive from Nevers and a 2 hour 40 minute drive from Paris. There is an aerodrome in Nevers, and a helicopter can land in the château grounds. The property comprises a 1,200 sqm château and a smaller 800 sqm château. THE CHATEAU : The château is built on a rectangular plan, over four storeys, with a slate gable roof. On the south-west façade, one can make out a former imposing chapel, now connected to the interior of the château, covered by a hipped roof, with two large pointed-arch windows. The main entrance is situated in the centre of a tall, projecting tower, spanning six storeys, topped by a hipped roof and housing a listed spiral staircase. The north-west façade, overlooking the terrace, is rendered in lime, featuring numerous mullioned windows in the larger sections and high-set dormer windows. The window frames are made of limestone. The south-east façade, offering a beautiful view of the Nièvre countryside, also features numerous windows, some of which are in a more classical 17th-C. style. A two-storey turret links the former chapel to the château. On the second and third floors there are twelve bedrooms, each with its own bathroom and wardrobe, ranging in size from 12 to 51 sqm. Beneath the roof of the former chapel lies a large 50 sqm study featuring a beautiful roof structure shaped like an upturned ship’s hull. Throughout the château, there are numerous preserved and restored architectural features, including floors, fireplaces, wood panelling, ceilings, and more. The interiors are very harmonious, of high quality, and perfectly respect this historic residence. THE SMALL CHATEAU : This is a 17th-C. building that originally housed outbuildings and large double-height stables. It has a rectangular layout over three storeys, plus an attic, and is covered with a slate Mansard roof. The main façade on the north-west side features a slight projection at its centre, with a pediment at the top, as well as at the ends, framed by stonework. The façades are lime-plastered. The interior surface area of the small château is approximately 800 sqm. THE 13TH-C. DEFENCE TOWER : This military defence tower has been converted into a self-contained flat. On the ground floor is a living room featuring antique terracotta tiles and a French-style ceiling. The tower contains various works by the designer and sculptor Pierre-Marie le Jeune, including a striking metal fireplace. A small kitchen has also been fitted out. Upstairs, there is a beautiful bedroom with a ‘sculpted bed’ and a glass ceiling revealing the magnificent roof structure, as well as a very contemporary bathroom with a glass bathtub. LAND : The park covers just over 12.3 acres. Around 1830, the landscape architect LAVENNE de CHOULOT designed an English-style park. It is through this park that one enters the estate. Heading south, we pass through a woodland with beautiful bridle paths that lead us to the edge of the Canal du Nivernais. From there, skirting the defence tower via a stone tunnel, we reach what was once the old kitchen garden, situated below the château’s terrace. Under the impetus of the current owners, this former kitchen garden has been transformed into a contemporary garden which has been awarded the ‘remarkable garden’ label. Water features have been created, resembling shattered fragments in which the sky and the château’s façade are reflected. Magnificent undulating rows of boxwood evoke the Nivernais bocage. This remarkable garden is bordered by a private canal running parallel to the Canal du Nivernais. Finally, a small French-style garden has been created on the upper terrace between the château and the 13th-C. tower. The views are magnificent, both from the lower garden towards the chateau terraces and from the upper gardens towards the Aron valley and the landscapes of the Nivernais countryside. This château is a truly historic family estate. Its size, location, surroundings, gardens and history make it a truly exceptional property. The high-quality restoration, which has been carried out with respect for the site’s history, means that a large family could move in immediately. The separation between the main château and the smaller château opens up a wide range of possibilities for activities without causing any disturbance. The development of an events business—such as conferences, corporate conventions, seminars, or private events like weddings, receptions, birthdays, etc.—is entirely feasible. It would also be possible to consider creating a hospitality (hotel) business. Finally, there is an opportunity to purchase additional land and buildings, subject to a price offer.
