castle for sale Albon, France

What if living in a château could also mean creating a place of your own? Just a 10-minute walk from the village and approximately one hour from Lyon, Valence and Grenoble, this elegant 19th-century château stands within a magnificent 2-hectare landscaped park, offering a preserved setting and an exceptional sense of space. From the moment you enter, the character of the property is immediately apparent. Exposed stonework, wood panelling, high ceilings and period materials bear witness to its history, creating a warm, elegant and timeless atmosphere. The three adjoining reception rooms offer generous volumes for entertaining, hosting large family gatherings or simply enjoying the tranquillity of the surroundings. Extending from these rooms, the light-filled orangery, overlooking the park, provides a particularly appealing space for welcoming family, guests or visitors. The château offers an exceptional capacity for accommodation, with five suites, including a principal suite, as well as seven additional bedrooms. This configuration allows for a variety of possibilities: a large family residence, a second home, a guest house or even a boutique hospitality or intimate events project, subject to the relevant permissions and regulations. The vaulted cellars further enhance the property and could naturally become part of a project centred around entertaining, gastronomy or the French art of living. The former independent caretaker’s house offers further possibilities: guest accommodation, an independent residence, a gîte or additional lodging, allowing a future owner to develop a project while preserving the privacy of the main residence. The 2-hectare grounds provide a remarkable setting for the property and could lend themselves to private receptions, intimate seminars, family celebrations or bespoke stays, subject to the necessary authorisations. The surrounding area offers a wealth of opportunities throughout the seasons, from lakes and unspoilt landscapes to nearby ski resorts, while maintaining easy access to several major cities. More than a château, this property offers a setting and a story around which to create a project. A place to live, entertain, welcome guests or develop a vision of your own, where heritage, nature and the French art of living come together. A truly distinctive property, ready to be brought to life, reinvented and perhaps passed on to the next generation. Presented by: Nathalie Peyraud – Independent Sales Agent.
