castle for sale Goux, France

Château of approximately 590 m² of living space, featuring two towers in very good overall condition, along with outbuildings totaling around 600 m². The main building is accessed via a tree-lined driveway or directly into the courtyard of honour by a smaller lane that runs along the property. The former entrance is quite impressive, marked by four stone pillars. Upon arrival, one is struck by the abundance of century-old trees, among the most noble species—cedars of Lebanon, magnolias, plane trees, and oaks. The outbuildings include a 125 m² apartment, a 40 m² studio, and a 140 m² reception hall suitable for events. There are five horse boxes, stables, and paddocks. The estate also features a pond, a basin (former swimming pool 14x5 m), a wood shed, and garages. Inside the château, the ground floor offers a spacious 50 m² entrance hall, a large living room with fireplace, a dining room, a modern fully equipped kitchen, a technical room, an office, and a bedroom with bathroom.

The second floor features a large bedroom with shower room and toilet. There is also a 1-hectare building plot (with the possibility to develop a 600 m² structure). The park and paddocks, the riding arena (60x20 m), and the option to create additional boxes make the property ideal for an equestrian activity, supported by abundant well water. However, it could also serve other purposes, as the reception hall in the outbuildings—complete with toilets, cold room, and laundry area—is perfect for weddings or other commercial events. The property is located 5 minutes from the town of Maubourguet and its shops, and 30 minutes from Tarbes, with its international airport and TGV station.

The Château d'Espas is a remarkable example of a medieval ''Gascon castle'' located near a small village in the Gers department of Armagnac. Its austere, almost military appearance, closely resembling 13th-century defensive architecture, makes it particularly interesting. It is believed to have been founded by the Counts of Armagnac at the end of that century. Built of red brick, it is relatively rare for Gascon castles, where stone usually predominates. Its layout is very compact: a rectangular main building flanked by four square towers. Originally, access was via a high gate, likely accessed by a ladder or removable staircase, typical of defensive medieval fortresses. The castle also has a connection to the d'Artagnan family: it belonged to the de Batz-Castelmore family, the lineage of the famous musketeer. Under Richelieu, it was reportedly partially dismantled, like many feudal strongholds of the period. Despite this, it still retains a remarkably authentic silhouette today. Another interesting fact: it was practically in ruins before being bought in 2000 by a passionate couple who undertook a restoration that was very respectful of the medieval structure. The work preserved the authenticity of the materials and spaces, in a spirit of respect for heritage. Their work was even recognized by the Vieilles Maisons Françaises (French Old Houses Association). The castle has been listed as a Historical Monument since 1979. The castle is spread over three levels, comprising the central building and four square towers. There is a single main entrance on the ground floor, leading to the great hall, which is unfurnished (earthen floor, brick walls). It has remained as it was in the 13th century. The four towers on the ground floor have been converted into living spaces. They serve as: - a bedroom with exterior access - the boiler room - a storage room - a laundry room with a toilet. On the first floor is the living area: a landing with a large entrance closet, the reception room, the living/dining room, a fitted kitchen in the northwest tower, a bedroom with a dressing room and en-suite bathroom in the northeast tower, a second bedroom in the southwest tower, and an office in the southeast tower. The attic is located on the second floor. Near the château is an outbuilding with a lean-to. The garden, covering 5,087 m², surrounds the château and features boxwood and topiary. Renovations have included the installation of underfloor heating in the main rooms on the first floor. The electrical system has been updated, and the sanitation system is up to code. The listed status as a Historic Monument underscores the property's exceptional heritage value and also allows for tax benefits related to the restoration and preservation of heritage sites. Château d'Espas represents a rare opportunity to acquire an iconic historic property in the heart of the Gers region, a place where art de vivre, heritage, and nature intertwine.
