castle with terrace for sale Cher, France

Castle near Bourges — equestrian facilities — 20 ha. In an environment made up of meadows, woods, and rolling countryside, with remarkable viewpoints, the castle built in 1844 showcases neoclassical architecture characteristic of the 19th century. Hidden in a green setting, the estate is discovered after a driveway, passing through several outbuildings — a caretaker's house, stables, and then an orangery. It reveals a perfectly symmetrical façade, enhanced by a triangular pediment, tall windows with shutters, and two flights of stone steps leading to the main terrace. Bathed in light thanks to its numerous openings, the dwelling features spacious reception areas in the style of the mansions of its time. A landscaped park of approximately 20 ha, composed of vast lawns, centennial trees, and intimate spaces, constitutes a true extension of the home. A body of water enhances this privileged setting. Discreetly overlooking the estate, the castle enjoys an unobstructed panorama of the surrounding countryside. It harmoniously combines the character of a historic residence, the ease of living in a remarkable park, and the potential for a family home or reception venue. In addition to the caretaker's house, the property includes numerous outbuildings: - the former stables of the estate, - equestrian facilities with about ten recent, cemented boxes, pasture, a lunging ring, and two riding arenas, - an old farm courtyard, - a dovecote converted into a gîte, - an orangery, - a woodshed, and another agricultural building of approximately 300 m², - a recent gîte of about 150 m², - a swimming pool of 10x5 m with technical room and toilets, - a tennis court with synthetic grass.This description has been automatically translated from French.
