CHATEAU WITH SUMPTUOUS RENAISSANCE AND 18TH-CENTURY ARCHITECTURE 60 KM FROM PARIS - One of the most beautiful gardens in Île-de-France - Superb decorative interiors - Gallery - 26 hectares free of lease - Fully listed Historic Monument - Vexin, Val d'Oise, Île-de-France. 60 km from Paris, in a beautiful preserved valley of the lush Vexin region, this Renaissance chateau built around 1540 and enlarged around 1710 and 1780 is nestled within an enchanting setting of Italian-style gardens, among the most beautiful in the surroundings of Paris. On the honor courtyard, the 1540 Renaissance façade is adorned with a rich décor of pilasters, capitals, and foliage scroll friezes, making it one of the finest examples of Renaissance architecture in private hands. A grand staircase leads to the large entrance hall of the chateau. On the right, the medieval keep with its two watchtowers has been preserved and also embellished with Renaissance decoration. To the west, the extraordinary gardens inspired by the Villa Gamberaia in Tuscany, among the most beautiful in France, unfold across three Renaissance terraces through a play of perspectives featuring boxwood parterres, yew topiaries, lime-tree avenues, and flowing water features. The secret garden with its statue of Neptune and its four squares of black and white tulips. The greenhouse garden with its 24 squares of tree peonies, hellebores, and “Black Parrot” tulips. The Moon Garden, wonderfully composed after that of the Gamberaia, is inspired by Andrea Mantegna's early 16th-century painting “Virtues and Vices” preserved at the Louvre. Architecture here is created by nature itself: the portico is formed from yew trees, and the half-moon shape is made of water. A cascade flows through the garden from north to south. The Sun Garden on the upper terrace is composed of a checkerboard pattern, blooming in spring with 40,000 daffodils and yew-shaped chess pieces. To the south, a superb classical façade built around 1710, of outstanding architectural quality, features five ground-floor arcades framing the staircase of the Renaissance gallery opening onto the park. The large pediment is decorated with a Rococo cartouche. The interior combines sumptuous Renaissance volumes with high-quality 18th-century decorative interiors. Inside, this residence bears witness to the splendor of the Renaissance through two salons with vast fireplaces, one featuring a remarkable sculpted ceiling, a large Renaissance gallery, and a Renaissance staircase with straight flights, barrel-vaulted and decorated with moldings and pilasters. The refinement of the 18th century unfolds in the staircase hall, particularly open, luminous, and theatrical, with cabochon flooring and a highly elegant wrought-iron banister.

EXCLUSIVE. Just 45 minutes from Paris, in the Vexin Regional Natural Park, on the border between the Val d'Oise and Yvelines departments, this 17th-century château sits on a preserved estate of over 23 hectares and includes numerous outbuildings, offering an exceptional opportunity for buyers seeking authenticity. The property is cohesive and adaptable, particularly well-suited to heritage, residential, tourism, or business projects. The château, spanning approximately 800 square meters, is spread over three levels, each boasting impressive ceiling heights of nearly 4 meters and numerous windows that provide exceptional natural light, rarely seen in buildings of this size. The ashlar façade combined with brickwork and the Mansard roof are characteristic of the 17th and 18th centuries. Bathed in light thanks to its four-way orientation (primarily northwest and southeast), the château offers idyllic views of the estate's park, its beautiful working fountain, the pond, the swimming pool, and, in the distance, the bridle paths. The Seraincourt estate belonged to Jean de Valliquerville, and the château hosted Ninon de Lenclos, a writer and celebrated courtesan at the court of Louis XIV, as well as gatherings of numerous writers and intellectuals of the 17th and 18th centuries. At the end of the 17th century, it was sold and remodeled for the Choppin family, lords of Seraincourt. It remained in the family for over 200 years before becoming the former home of Pola Negri, a silent film actress of the early 20th century and a friend of Charlie Chaplin. Lightning struck the château in 2012, causing a fire and significant damage. Under the supervision of an architect from the French National Heritage Service, the roof, framework, ceilings, and windows and frames of the second floor were restored, and the château was made watertight. Today, it awaits renovation and interior design according to the intended use of its future owner. Many exceptional features from different periods remain: parquet floors (Versailles and herringbone), Burgundy stone, marble, terracotta tiles, moldings, woodwork, fireplaces, and more. While maintaining a human scale, like a beautiful, light-filled bourgeois residence, the château offers very spacious rooms. On the ground floor, there is a large entrance hall, a double living room, a library, two dining rooms, a kitchen, a serving hatch, and a separate toilet. On the first floor, a beautiful wooden staircase leads to five or six bedrooms, a dressing room, two bathrooms, and a separate toilet. The second floor opens onto a large room that can accommodate up to five bedrooms, and two more are located in the top-floor tower. In the basement, two large cellars are accessible via the service staircase, which also serves the upper floors. The castle is accompanied by a set of outbuildings in very good condition and with various well-utilized activities: The former barn houses a 200m2 reception room (with a catering kitchen and a sanitary block with 3 toilets) extended by a 100m2 courtyard and a 100m2 covered area, allowing the organization of unique events. The former hunting lodge of over 300m2, now a fully renovated and decorated gîte, can accommodate 24 people (8 bedrooms and one family room, each with its own shower room and WC) with a living/dining room and a kitchen area on the ground floor allowing for the service of breakfasts and the table d'hôtes. The owner's stable, spanning over 350m2, houses an animal shelter which manages the stable's upkeep. It comprises 24 stalls, including 6 outdoor stalls, a lunge ring, a competition arena with a perfectly level and draining surface, and staff accommodation. Finally, the current owner resides in a beautiful farmhouse (310m2 of living space and over 500m2 of total floor area) comprising, on the ground floor, former stables housing various garages and storage areas. An external stone staircase leads to the first floor, which includes a large kitchen/dining room, a liv
