At the gates of Dauphiné, 30 minutes east of Lyon, a listed historical monument castle, rich in eight centuries of history. The estate is established within a large fortified enclosure of about one kilometer, whose ramparts recall its original defensive purpose. The castle, a major stronghold of medieval Dauphiné, built from the 13th century and then remodeled until the Renaissance, is constructed in a U-shaped plan around a large inner courtyard. The main body, built of limestone and rubble, rises three levels above the courtyard. The facades are largely pierced with mullioned windows and animated, on the courtyard side, by arcaded galleries and Renaissance loggias, which testify to the progressive transformation of the fortress into a lordly residence. The ensemble is flanked by a round tower from the 14th century, a square tower, and a preserved keep, while several remnants of curtain walls remain. The steep roofs, covered with flat tiles forming a pattern of polychrome diamonds or pepperbox, are punctuated by dormers and tall chimney stacks. To the east, a path leads to the entrance porch. To the south, the French gardens open onto a wooded park. A concierge lodge and former stables are situated near the main dwelling, completing the historical layout of the site.This description has been automatically translated from French.

A 19th century chateau with 14.5 hectares of grounds surrounded by verdant countryside in north-west Isère . This vast estate, extending over approx. 14.5ha of gently sloping, uninterrupted land, consists predominantly of woodlands. A shady driveway leads to a large gravel parking area to the north-west of the main building. It then continues towards a courtyard in front of the chateau, where the woods give way to a large clearing. A secondary path followed by a flight of steps lead to a swimming pool on a plateau overlooking the forest. On the other side, a small wooden chapel is tucked away beneath the trees. This was originally a forest house linked to an ancient 16th century Cistercian abbey. After the French Revolution, it was used as the home of the steward responsible for managing the national forest. In 1888, a local grandee commissioned the architect Joseph-Étienne Mallaval to build a substantial four-storey extension. The chateau, which has undergone several periods of construction and renovation, stands on the north-eastern edge of the grounds. Its most striking external architectural features are those dating from the 19th century. The distinct, homogenous volumes of each section follow one another cascading down to the outbuilding, reflecting the different periods in which they were built. The adobe, pebble, rammed earth concrete and clinker block facades are rendered. The roofs, clad with slate, monk and nun or flat “beaver tail” tiles are in good condition; they have all been renovated, with the exception of the roof of the 19th-century main building. Today divided into various lodgings spread over three levels, the building has a total floor area of approx. 870 m². It is currently used as tourist accommodation, benefiting from one of the most peaceful environmental areas.

A splendid small castle dating back to the 11th century, remodeled in the 15th and 17th centuries, and lovingly renovated between 2009 and 2011, then again in 2023–2024 for the main wing. The main east-west wing comprises: - on the garden level: two rooms, including a 50 m² family reception room, toilets and...two former dungeons. - on the main level: a large 61 m² kitchen/dining room, beautifully appointed with original custom-made fixtures, a 51 m² living room with a fireplace insert, a 25 m² office, and a guest restroom.
