Castle Beziers (34)

Just 20 minutes from Béziers, in the heart of Languedoc’s unspoilt countryside, this remarkable estate features a characterful château built in 1830 as a hunting lodge. It stands within a contiguous 56-hectare estate, including extensive vineyards surrounding the property. Offering approximately 521 sq m of living space, the château now requires renovation, presenting a rare opportunity to unlock the full potential of an exceptional historic residence. Despite the passage of time, many original decorative features have been preserved, lending the property remarkable authenticity and charm. Glazed roof tiles, a monumental stone staircase, marble fireplaces, traditional French parquet flooring, antique mosaics and an integrated chapel all bear witness to its rich architectural heritage. The vineyard estate extends over 56 hectares, comprising 44.8 hectares of productive vines, 4 hectares to be replanted and approximately 7 hectares of land and parkland. With irrigation covering 30 hectares, the vineyards are planted with emblematic grape varieties of southern France: Merlot, Carignan, Grenache, Syrah and Cabernet Sauvignon for the reds, and Sauvignon Blanc and Chardonnay for the whites. Classified under the IGP Pays d’Oc designation, the estate benefits from controlled yields and an operational production infrastructure. The grapes are currently delivered to the local cooperative winery, while the existing facilities offer the opportunity to revive an independent wine production operation and develop a proprietary brand. The château features generous reception areas, 11 bedrooms, 5 shower rooms and a large basement fitted out as a wine cellar. The outbuildings considerably enhance the property's appeal, with three independent residential units measuring 95 sq m, 95 sq m and 70 sq m respectively. Two are currently let on annual leases, while the third operates as a holiday rental. The former hunters’ hall, the original stables and an impressive 660 sq m wine-making cellar further contribute to this rare and distinguished estate. A truly rare property, combining the prestige of a historic château estate with the scale and substance of a fully fledged wine-growing estate. An exceptional opportunity to create a prestigious private residence, a boutique hotel, an exclusive events venue or a leading wine estate.
