Ref.4845 : In the Heart of the Berry Region, a 15th–17th C. Château with Park, Moat and Outbuildings Just three hours from Paris by motorway, southern Boischaut is a region that combines the gently rolling plains of the Paris Basin with the foothills of the Massif Central, which feature a more rugged terrain. This natural region, covering the southern parts of the Indre and Cher departments—that is, the former province of Berry—is primarily devoted to cattle farming. The landscapes here are therefore green and often dotted with hedgerows, possessing a discreet yet enduring charm. It is “Le Berry, which takes hold of you and never lets you go” as described by George Sand, a native of the region. The area 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. Chateaumeillant, La Châtre and Saint-Amand-Montrond, small towns full of character with a rich history, are located near the château. The first is known for its high-quality vineyards, the second lies at the heart of the ‘Pays de George Sand’, with its many events, and the third, dubbed the ‘City of Gold’ as it is France’s third-largest centre for gold jewellery production, is often associated with Noirlac Abbey, a marvel of Cistercian architecture situated nearby. Finally, for younger visitors, Sam Parc, also located in Saint-Amand Montrond, is one of the best amusement parks in the Centre region. Just a little further on, Bourges is a major city of art and history, making it a natural choice to become the European Capital of Culture in 2028. You’ll love 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. As the capital of the Berry region, Bourges is not just an open-air museum. The city lies at the heart of a vibrant economic region where the aerospace and defence industries are particularly well represented. The château is approached by way of a fixed bridge spanning the former moat, its entrance symbolically guarded by a tower. Beyond lies a splendid esplanade upon which the residence reveals itself as a classic 17th-century manor house adjoined by a remarkable medieval keep flanked by two towers, one of which contains a staircase turret. The manor itself rises over three storeys, including an attic level beneath a hipped roof clad in flat tiles and crowned with two lead finials along the ridge. At the north-eastern corner of the roof stands a purely decorative brick échauguette. The principal façades, oriented east to west, display elegant rows of windows adorned only with subtly projecting sills. On the eastern elevation, a remarkable wrought-iron and glass veranda inspired by the Art Nouveau style occupies the centre of the building. On this same façade, to the south, stands a neo-Gothic stair tower. To the north of the manor, a narrower and lower rectangular structure provides the connection between the northern tower and the keep. The northern tower, imposing in mass, rises over three levels beneath a conical roof. The keep itself is square in plan and surmounted by a pavilion roof clad in flat tiles, its ridges embellished with ornamental lead finials. At its south-western corner stands a staircase turret capped with a conical roof. Defensive openings remain visible at several points throughout the structure. Upon entering the manor house, one finds on the ground floor a through entrance hall leading, to the right, into a vast drawing room with fireplace, illuminated by windows opening onto both sides of the building. At the far end of the entrance hall lies access to the neo-Gothic stair tower, while to the left are the dining room, opening onto the veranda, and a small ancillary room serving as a secondary kitchen. Proceeding along the corridor and still to the right are a return staircase ascending to the upper floor, a lavatory, a small artist’s studio, and, beyond a few steps, a spacious kitchen with adjoining laundry room and pantry. This kitchen enjoys a terrace to the east and an exit onto the arrival esplanade to the west. The return staircase leads to the first floor, where a broad corridor gives access to four bedrooms, three with shower rooms and one with a bathroom. At approximately one-third of the corridor’s length stands a wooden staircase ascending to the attic floor, formerly used as servants’ quarters. At the second third, a landing provides access to an independent lavatory and to the neo-Gothic stair tower. Returning northwards, the corridor passes an independent lavatory featuring the remains of an archway, before narrowing as it enters the connecting building. It then opens onto a large bedroom with bathroom and continues towards the keep’s grand hall, an impressive room with generous ceiling height, illuminated to the north and south by stained-glass windows with window seats. A monumental fireplace bearing the arms of the Boissieu family, still in working order, lends great distinction to the space. A narrow passageway gives access to a charming study located within the northern tower. A short corridor then leads to the stair turret and up to the second floor of the keep, where one first encounters a long storage room, formerly the château’s fruit store, before entering a vast hall with fireplace and windows fitted with stone seats, currently used as a billiard room. The staircase continues upwards to magnificent attic spaces beneath a timber framework shaped like an inverted ship’s hull. Beneath the keep lie a former wine storehouse and a wine cellar. The outbuildings are, for the most part, grouped together in a large U-shaped complex, comprising a tack room, a shed, a stable used as a garage, a four-room flat (including three bedrooms) used as a guest house, a very large cowshed, a donkey stable and a number of small outbuildings. The property is in fairly good visible condition. In the grounds, there is a beautiful greenhouse-orangery that could be used as a reception room, in good visible condition. The grounds, covering a total area of 8.5 acres, are shaped like an isosceles triangle. The château and outbuildings are situated at the base of the triangle, whilst the park, criss-crossed by several beautiful avenues, occupies the rest. An interesting feature of the site is that the moats and water ditches form an enclosure separating an ‘inner park’ – an English-style garden, beautifully landscaped and well-maintained – from an ‘outer park’, which is more natural in character and features a pretty pond. A small bridge and a footbridge allow visitors to move from one area to the other. This layout lends the whole site a distinct romantic charm.

Ref 4825: 15th-century castle and its hamlet for sale in the Berry region Located in Berry, in the Indre department, this remarkable castle captivates visitors with its distinctively medieval character. Situated in the heart of France, it is approximately 300 km from Paris via the A20 motorway, known as the Occitane, and 30 km from Châteauroux, the local town centre. For everyday amenities, the charming village of Argenton-sur-Creuse is less than ten minutes away. The site can also be reached by helicopter. A veritable fortress, the building overlooks the banks of a small river, the Bouzanne. The gently rolling surrounding landscape marks the south-eastern boundary of the Brenne, also known as the ‘Land of a Thousand Ponds’. Renowned for its unspoilt nature and designated a Regional Nature Park, this region offers numerous opportunities for relaxation and exploration. Birdwatchers come from all over the world to observe waterfowl and migratory birds, whilst hikers, cyclists and horse riders enjoy the well-maintained paths winding between the ponds. Hunting enthusiasts also find favourable terrain here, whilst respecting responsible hunting practices. On the edge of a hamlet, its privacy protected by a wall stretching nearly two kilometres, the fortress stands at the heart of its grounds. It enjoys a remarkable panorama over the Bouzanne Valley, forming a veritable natural amphitheatre where the views stretch for nearly ten kilometres. This spectacular setting had, in fact, caught the attention of Michael Jackson, who had considered establishing his French estate there in the late 1990s. The castle is one of the few largely preserved examples of 15th-century military architecture. Built of dressed stone and rubble masonry, and still partially surrounded by moats, it comprises an entrance gatehouse flanked by crenellated towers, which leads into a first, square courtyard. Two wings of the building flank this courtyard. At the far end of this courtyard, a fixed bridge leads, beneath an imposing keep, to a second courtyard. The dismantling of the curtain walls and certain towers has transformed this inner courtyard into a terraced esplanade offering views, to the north, of the wooded banks of the Bouzanne, a small river flowing at the foot of the castle. To the south of the courtyard, the main residence adjoining the keep, rising four storeys high beneath a slate roof, is defended on three of its corners by imposing towers with conical roofs and machicolations. Entering this residence at terrace level via the stair tower that leads to it, one encounters, in turn, a reception room for guests with its monumental fireplace, a study in the south tower, a former bakery converted into a billiard room, a room known as the ‘courtroom’ with a monumental fireplace, and a chapel. Via the south-east tower, there is access to the bathrooms and sauna located on the ground floor of the south wing of the courtyard. In the north-corner tower, there is a separate bedroom with a beautiful fireplace and en-suite bathroom. On the upper floors, accessible by lift: On the first floor of the main building, a semi-professional kitchen, a dining room with beautiful 17th-century wood panelling, a small green sitting room in the west tower, a large sitting room with a ceiling painted in the 18th-century style, and the executive office in the east tower. On the second floor there are seven bedrooms, each with an en-suite bathroom or shower room, some featuring monumental fireplaces and seating areas. A spacious room with high ceilings and a gallery completes the layout and is designated as the armoury. On the third floor there are eight bedrooms, each with a bathroom or shower room, some featuring monumental fireplaces and armchairs. On the fourth floor there are six bedrooms, each with a bathroom or shower room, some featuring monumental fireplaces and built-in seats. A library, covered by a four-part ribbed vault with voussoirs, completes the ensemble. There are numerous outbuildings. Four of these form part of the castle complex: The south wing of the square tower, spread over two floors. It houses the boiler room and a staff flat. The north wing of the square tower is dedicated to technical activities, with storage rooms, cold rooms and a large workshop. On the upper floor, three large brick-vaulted rooms could be converted into a superb reception area. A large terrace covers them. Beneath the terrace lies a vast vaulted room known as the Knights’ Hall. The other outbuildings are clustered in the southern part of the grounds, forming a sort of hamlet: The main one is the Bergerie, a large 19th-century farm building converted into a conference centre. With a total of nearly 300 sqm of living space, it houses two meeting rooms and sixteen rooms, including staff accommodation and two holiday cottages. Six residential houses, likely built in the 19th century, currently unused but weatherproofed. A garage with a covered courtyard and a charging station for electric vehicles. There is also, at the entrance to the estate, a pumping station housed in a hipped-roof building. Built on a plateau overlooking the Bouzanne valley, the castle covers just over 15 hectares (37 acres), which can be divided into: - A vast park, planted with remarkable local tree species (cedars, poplars, birches, oaks), surrounds the castle. It includes an enclosed terraced garden which is soon to be restored to its former status as a vegetable garden. Beautiful paths allow visitors to admire this remarkable example of medieval architecture from every angle. - A 12 x 6 m swimming pool, with a terrace of cut stone and changing rooms in a tower. It is situated at the foot of the north-west corner of the esplanade - To the north, a hillside woodland that slopes down to the path running alongside the river. - Finally, meadows covering an area of 3 hectares complete the estate. All furniture and operating equipment is included in the sale price.

The river winds its way through a rural landscape where deciduous woods on the slopes alternate with bocage meadows and low-lying pastures, poplar groves on the banks, and cultivated fields on the flatlands and hillsides. This is the home of the famous Limousine cattle breed: the Pôle de Lanaud, with its renowned restaurant, is just a few minutes from the property. This corner of the countryside is less than 20 km from Limoges, a city of art and history. Known for its long tradition of porcelain manufacturing, the capital of Limousin is a dynamic city with a large student population, a renowned university hospital, and one of the world's leading companies in the field of electrical equipment (Legrand). Limoges-Bénédictins train station, listed as a Historic Monument for its architecture combining Art Nouveau and Art Deco, allows you to reach Paris or Toulouse in three and a half hours. Limoges Bellegarde airport, half an hour from the château, has regular flights to Lyon, London, Bristol, Leeds, Manchester, and the Midlands. This proximity between town and country explains the abundance of castles and manor houses found in the Briance Valley. The oldest were built by the powerful Viscounts of Limoges or by the abbots of Solignac, an important abbey on the Via Lemovicensis route to Compostela. The more recent ones, such as the property on offer, were designed as pleasant residences for the upper middle class of Limoges, who loved, and still appreciate, this charming and peaceful setting just a stone's throw from the city. Set apart from a hamlet, the chateau is a building of classical proportions flanked by two round towers with conical roofs. In the center, a detached pavilion houses the entrance and stairwell. It is topped by a portico broken by a monumental pediment dormer with a domed roof. On the opposite side, the south facade features a perfect alignment of windows on a straight facade framed by slightly protruding wings. Chain molding and bossages reinforce the impression of symmetry, which extends up to the domed dormers lighting the attic. Covered in slate, the hipped roof of the main building, like that of the entrance pavilion, is topped with a metal ridge. To the north again, a three-step staircase leads to the front door, a side door with a wooden tympanum and a protruding doorframe. From there, the ground floor comprises an entrance hall, an office with a toilet and shower, a storage room/cellar, a kitchen, a dining room, a double living room, and a library. On the same level, the towers house a bar with neo-Gothic decor in one and a boiler room in the other. With high ceilings, these two rooms occupy two levels. On the first floor : 4 large bedrooms with their own bathrooms. On the second floor : a long hallway and five beautiful bedrooms with bathrooms, one of which has a shower room and sometimes a dressing room. Two of these bedrooms are located in the towers. Under the eaves: a large open space ready to be converted. The property has a total living area of approximately 700 sqm. The outbuildings include: The Orangery, probably built in the 19th century, is the main outbuilding. On the first floor, a fully equipped reception room can seat up to 60 people. A second floor, under the eaves, is in need of restoration. Separately, the modern garage with cellar can accommodate two to three cars and the equipment needed to maintain the property. Finally, the swimming pool (12.5 x 4.5 m) is at the center of a true wellness area with its terrace and pool house equipped with a sauna. The park, covering an area of approximately 5.55 acres (2.25 hectares), forms a sort of uneven diamond shape, with its corners roughly pointing to the cardinal points. At its center, with their facades facing south, the castle and its outbuildings stand on a vast, well-kept, flower-filled lawn. All around, tall trees shelter the castle and its guests from view and noise. The land slopes very gently, but without reaching it, towards the Roselle, a tributary of the Briance. A tennis court, shaded by trees, marks the southern tip, while the wooded western side borders an invisible railway line.
