Inside, the château features: • A domed entryway, opulent reception halls, dining rooms, and culinary spaces distributed over four floors. • 9 sleeping chambers, 3 washrooms, and supplementary living quarters. • A subterranean level housing wine cellars, service rooms, and workspaces. • Attic areas and adaptable spaces in the roof. The grounds host several auxiliary structures: a historic stable complex with an outdoor staircase, a sizable barn, a guardian’s dwelling, ateliers, and secondary buildings. An ancient square pigeon house stands atop a prayer room on the lower level. An early Romanesque church, once serving the local parish, enhances the estate’s architectural and spiritual essence. Listed as a Historic Monument, protected elements include the château and church’s external walls and roofs, the pigeon house, the grand entryway, and the churchyard, which contains archaeological sites. An estate of remarkable distinction and magnitude, perfectly suited for a private home, cultural sanctuary, or conservation venture, all set against a serene, scenic backdrop with convenient city access.

Listed castle Angouleme (16)

BARNES Properties & Châteaux offers for sale this authentic castle from the 17th and 18th centuries, listed as a Historic Monument. Located at the heart of a domain of approximately 15 hectares, bordered by the Charente river, this heritage ensemble provides a rare living environment, preserved and steeped in history. Away from any disturbances, the property enjoys a privileged rural location, just 15 minutes from the city center of Angoulême and the TGV station that connects to the capital in just over 2 hours. The first amenities are found 5 minutes away. A beautiful avenue leads to the estate and leads to the entrance porch, which opens onto a vast honor courtyard. Surrounding this courtyard are the castle and its numerous outbuildings, forming a closed ensemble with remarkable proportions. Different eras coexist harmoniously, creating an architectural ensemble of character, whose charm has been preserved through the centuries. The main dwelling has retained many elements of ancient decor: fireplaces, 18th-century woodwork, old floors, frescoes, period staircase, and a remarkable vaulted kitchen. Generous openings extend the interior spaces with beautiful views of the gardens and park. The reception rooms, both authentic and bright, offer beautiful volumes in period decor. The upper floors host no less than nine bedrooms. However, a significant part of the castle remains to be restored. This configuration offers its future owners the opportunity to continue enhancing this historic residence and fully reveal its potential, respecting its heritage character. The numerous outbuildings constitute another major asset of the property. Barns, former stables, and a large portico illustrate the traditional organization of large rural properties and currently offer multiple possibilities for exploitation and transformation. Depending on the necessary authorizations, these spaces could notably accommodate equestrian facilities, reception areas, independent housing units, workshops, or various tourism-related projects. The estate extends over approximately 15 hectares and comprises a wooded park, woods, and meadows. The whole benefits from a particularly preserved natural environment and takes advantage of the presence of the Charente at the property boundary. Over the years, numerous conservation works have been undertaken, especially on roofs, facades, outbuildings, and certain decorative elements, thus contributing to the preservation of the residence. While significant work remains to be undertaken, particularly regarding the interiors, the property currently benefits from a sound base for a major restoration and enhancement project. A rare ensemble, steeped in history and boasting remarkable potential, just a few minutes from Angoulême. Property not subject to the DPE. Detailed file available upon request.

Castle Angouleme (16)

Located 15 minutes from Angoulême, a city of art and history, and the TGV train station, this charming and characterful little castle has remained in the same family for centuries. Standing next to a charming Romanesque church and a splendid lime tree, from the top of its rock, it overlooks a wooded and hilly valley : the view is splendid and breathtaking. It is nestled in a green setting, while the village and all shops (butcher, bakery, and convenience store open 7 days a week) are a one-minute walk away. The property is also close to many hiking trails. The owners have taken great care to restore their property while respecting its character. The floors have been preserved (terracotta tiles, rammed earth, and forged nail-worked floors). You will journey through the ages, from prehistory (a cave and its silos carved into the rock below), through the medieval and classical periods, to the romantic 19th century. Built in the 13th century, then modified in the 15th and 18th centuries, the castle offers on the ground floor a kitchen with a terracotta floor, a dining room with a wooden floor and fireplace, an entrance hall with a terracotta floor with a main wooden staircase and rammed earth floor. This room gives access to a shower room with a small bedroom above, as well as a first boiler room with an oil and wood boiler. You then enter the music room with a wooden fireplace, on parquet flooring with Persian walnut paneling. At the end of the hallway with terracotta tiles, a bedroom has been converted into the old kitchen, revealing a superb fireplace with a rotisserie and a hexagonal terracotta floor. The hallway also gives access to a shower room and a second boiler room with an oil boiler. From the courtyard, another entrance on a stone slab, with a wooden service staircase, and a WC at the end, gives access to a small apartment comprising a bedroom on the ground floor (the Blasons bedroom) and a bedroom on the mezzanine, as well as an adjoining shower room with WC, and a private courtyard. On the first floor, the wooden landing opens onto a "red bed" bedroom with parquet flooring and a fireplace, along with a large bathroom/shower/WC with ship's-deck parquet flooring. Above the vestibule, a library corridor with wooden flooring leads to a living room with oak flooring and a fireplace. The staircase in the tower is used as a cabinet of curiosities and provides access below to a study. On the other side of the corridor, a dining room converted from a former bedroom, with parquet flooring and a fireplace, features a small kitchen and an adjoining bathroom. A corridor with stairs leads to a bedroom with wooden flooring and a fireplace, and to a medieval bedroom with wooden flooring and a fireplace, with a private bathroom and WC, also accessible via the service staircase. The second floor contains the attic, a bedroom, a bathroom, and another room. The castle's roofs are very recent (from 2011 to 2018), and the tiles are all fixed to prevent the roof caps from slipping. The barns benefited from the same precautions during the renovations in 2018 and 2023. The sanitation system is to be redone, with the possibility of connecting to the communal network. A charming old sheepfold could inspire many projects (yoga room, guest house, etc.). Comprising approximately 100 sq.mt of living space on one level, it features a large living room with an open kitchen (53 sq.mt), two bedrooms, a laundry room, a bathroom/shower room, and a separate toilet. Many outbuildings allow for the realization of beautiful projects: barns on the sheepfold side, and a garage and a barn on the church side. The romantic garden features a beautiful masonry swimming pool (13.50 x 4.50), built in 2012 and heated by a Zodiac heat pump. The gray liner is new (June 2024) and of superior quality (90° thickness), with glass and chlorine filtration. Nearly 14 hectares of woods and meadows surround the property. Note the presence of a well and a 60 m³ rainwater tank. Not far from Angoulême, this property is 10 minutes from a shopping area (Carrefour, Leroy Merlin, etc.), while the nearest shops are within walking distance. Sale price including fees : 1,166,000 euros. Buyer's fees. Fee : 6 % VAT of the price excluding fees. Sale price excluding fees : 1,100,000 euros. Energy class : E. Climate class : D.

Castle Angouleme (16)

An 18th and 19th-century chateau, to be restored, with many outbuildings and grounds of nearly 100 hectares, near Angoulême. The estate, accessible via a few different entrances from several surrounding B roads, extends over more than 98 contiguous hectares, traversed by former bridal paths, while nearly 40 hectares are made up of the grounds, woods, several meadows and a variety of buildings and the other remaining 60 hectares, operated under a farm lease, include a little more than three hectares of vineyards. In existence since the 18th century, the estate was originally articulated around a residence and buildings dedicated to its agricultural vocation, whereas, around 1890, the dwelling was greatly refurbished in order to become a pleasure palace. As for its agricultural and wine-making activities, they would be continued on the property, while a stone washhouse, a wine storehouse, a winepress, former wine vats, stables and storerooms still exist from this two-fold occupation. In addition, the property also features a private chapel, whose religious use has been confirmed by episcopal approval, whereas, today, the three-storey chateau, extending over nearly 900 m², boasts two different staircases: the first connects the ground-floor living areas with the first floor’s private suites, while, directly opposite, a second staircase, located in a square tower, provides access to all the different levels, including the former staff bedrooms and service rooms on the last floor. Lastly, the property also includes a caretaker’s cottage, a hunting pavilion, a lean-to, which still contains the vestiges of a former laundering system and a bread oven, as well as two ruins and a swimming pool, whereas several buildings will require, like the chateau, a significant restoration, as well as modernising upgrades to their technical installations.
