Beautiful chateau near Albertville for sale with development potential, in 4 hectares and 4000m2 constructible - A tastefully renovated 7 bed 4 reception room, manor house / chateau with so much development potential that if I had 1.2M€ I would buy it myself. As it stands, it’s a beautifully stylish and spacious home with a separate guardian’s apartment, multi-car garage and swimming pool. The 4000m2 of constructible land is to the side of the chateau next to the village road, so the construction of houses or apartments would have no visual impact on the chateau. The chateau itself has 3 floors accessed by a grand stone staircase in the left-hand tower which could allow the creation of a large 150m2, 3 bed apartment on each floor. 4 apartments Including the guardian’s apartment plus and a new development to sell next door is already a strong investment prospect, with the onward potential of another 2 hectares of land which could very well become constructible in future.
