Castles for sale Créon-d'Armagnac, France

A 19th century manor house in need of restoration, its outbuildings and 7 ha of wooded parklands in the rolling countryside of the Landes d'Armagnac in the Nouvelle-Aquitaine region. The old 15th century noble residence has been converted into the present-day manor house, which has preserved its treasures. These include the late 19th century sculpted coat of arms of Baron Camont de Talence, the former owner of the property, adorning the mantelpiece of a marble fireplace within the manor house. The 7-hectare estate, which used to be a vineyard, enjoys surroundings protected from visual and noise disturbances. It is a 1-km walk from the village. The entrance to the estate from the main road is marked by a tall wrought iron gate framed by solid dressed stone pillars. The caretaker's lodge is on the left-hand side. A 600-metre bridle path runs through the grounds dotted with centuries-old oak trees to a lawned platform above the fields. The manor house stands in the centre of this natural setting. The driveway splits twice: once to go around the western edge of the estate and serve the fields and farm outbuildings built around a square courtyard, and again to reach the tenant farm and its outbuildings. Opposite the west facade of the manor house, an elongated building houses the stables. To the north, there is an old swimming pool with an unusual shape awaiting restoration. The bandstand, with its fine, ornate metal structure, adds a refined touch to the park. It forms the starting point for a shady path leading to spinneys crossed by a stream and then a river ensuring the irrigation of the land. The manor house extends over three storeys with a total floor area of some 650m², each level bathed in light. The functional layout facilitates easy renovation. During the renovation works, the tenant farmhouse, which has already been restored and offers a comfortable surface area, will provide the ideal refuge for future inhabitants, should the need arise.

The Château de Fourcès sits at the entrance of one of the most beautiful villages of France, on the banks of the river Auzoue. Fourcès (meaning force in Gascon) is a unique and picturesque circular village renowned for its famous annual flower market on the last weekend of April, its monthly brocantes, restaurants and eclectic shops. The village, with a mere 300 inhabitants, is a local treasure, its beauty preserved over the centuries and very much a living and breathing Gascon village, where it is possible to source anything from an ancient scented rose, a bottle of Armagnac, a unique piece of furniture; or to enjoy a fabulous meal with local produce on the terrace of the local Auberge. A village so often visited for its beauty, and gentle recreational pleasures, the Château is one of the most remarkable landmarks of Gascony, and one which here at BLISS we are proud to present to anyone in search of a life-changing property, and one which provides the possibility of so many possible business ventures linked to this historical building, in an area of peaceful beauty and tranquillity. The chateau was demolished in 1453 in the Hundred Year War. At the time the local villagers re-employed many of the stones to build their own properties around the circular market place, with is hundred year old trees. The central market place is dotted with plane trees which provide dappled shade in the summer months. This is a place in which people come together; bursting with flowers from horticulturists all over SW France at the end of April, the brocanteurs, eating an impromptu lunch at rickety tables and sharing a glass of local Gascon red at the monthly antique fares. If ever you wanted to feel you are in the heart of France, and time has stopped, cross the bridge over the river to the sleepy town of Fourcès. Building of the Château as we know it today commenced at the end of the reign of Louis Xll and was completed under the reign of François Ier. The building is clearly Renaissance in style with lovely large windows, a glorious pale stone façade, with two wings and a round tower and a square tower. In the square tower we find the beautiful and original staircase. Since 1996, successive owners of the Château have welcomed tourists into the Château, with the current owners having carried out an impressive redesign of the interior of the Château with further development of additional appartements on the upper floors, and the creation of a popular bar/tapas area on the ground floor for guests, known as Chez Boubou, with two bedrooms above the bar/restaurant in the adjacent stone cottage that sits at the entrance of the Château. The current owners also oversaw the complete restoration of the roof in 2020.
