Castle Uzès (30)

This 18th-century residence is ideally situated on the rolling plains of the Eure valley, just 5 minutes from the center of Uzès and the much loved Place aux Herbes. The immediate setting, a private wooded park of over one hectare (2.47 acres), offers a sense of intimacy, yet close proximity to the city.
The château, the centerpiece of the complex, has played host to major events in support of France and its Allies during the Second World War. Two outbuildings complete the ensemble: an old orangery that has been completely refurbished, and an old barn used for farming.
The château is divided into three levels, with several apartments. The first floor comprises a 73m2 (786 sq ft) apartment with two bedrooms, a magnificent vaulted room opening onto the inner courtyard, cellars, a toilet and storage space. The second floor comprises a two-beds, a one-bed, and two studios. A 4-bedroom apartment extends over the second floor, renovated and bright, it has its own private entrance.
In the former barn, upstairs is an apartment with 83m2 (894 sq ft) of living space plus a pleasant 49m2 (527 sq ft) terrace. Below the apartment, a non-renovated room offers spacious volumes. Next door is a one-bedroom apartment.
The south-east-facing former orangery, with a breathtaking view over the park, is a house in its own right with approx. 214m2 (2304 sq ft) of living space. Where orange trees once drew their strength from the sun's rays, a magnificent 50m2 (538 sq ft) living room is a space that makes you want to linger. A sumptuous row of windows and high ceilings enhanced by exposed beams lend the space a magical aura. A cosy living room with fireplace follows, then a bedroom with bathroom and toilet. On the other side, a large kitchen with a storeroom. The wooden staircase leads up to the open-plan mezzanine floor, offering new views of the living room. The second floor comprises 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and 2 powder rooms.
Other varied spaces complete the picture: 4 closed garages, 3 open garages, 1 bathroom, 1 storeroom, cellars. The total surface area of the various buildings is around 1327m2 (14,284 sq ft). The orangery, as well as a section of the castle benefit from the optic fiber for their internet connection.
It is conceivable that the future purchaser will make the orangery his or her main residence, while collecting income from the rental of the other spaces, which are very attractive due to their proximity to Uzès.
This unique property, which has left its mark on history, offers a plethora of possibilities.
