Ref. 4137: Charming castle for sale, for professional use, near vendeen coast Situated in the south of the Vendée bocage, near vendeen coast, the Château is on the edge of a picturesque village, not far from an attractive town with all amenities. It is ideally suited to tourism, with a restaurant and professional kitchen, guest rooms and two gîtes. The bocage region of the Vendée is mainly made up of fields surrounded by coppice, hedges and copses, forming a landscape of unspoilt natural charm. The small village where the Château is located has a rich history: in the 15th century, this trading town was renowned throughout the region for its fairs and varied crafts. In 1721, it was one of the twenty largest towns in Bas-Poitou! The fairs lost their importance in the 16th century, and after the Revolution they were held only four times a year. Built between 1850 and 1856, this Château is typical of the buildings of the period: a vast, ostentatious residence in keeping with the recovery and reconstruction of the region after the Vendée War. It is a square building, two storeys high. The garden level has a large surface area thanks to two low wings with concealed roofs, while the central mass rises over four levels of windows above a brick base.

The second floor has the same layout as the first, with four bedrooms, each with its own bathroom and toilet. Beautiful oak parquet flooring.

It is 24 m long and 11 m wide. A large attic is possible. The stables : This rendered stone building dates from 1880 and comprises a central building flanked by two wings.

The gîtes : In the former orchard, separated from the Château, surrounded by old stone walls, two gîtes have been restored. The first gîte sleeps 6 people (€1,000 in high season) and the second sleeps 4 (€760 in high season). A swimming pool (5x10m) allows guests to cool off after visiting the rich heritage of the Vendée. The park covers approximately 6,18 acres, some of which is enclosed by walls. The English-style park is planted with large trees of various species. In particular, there are two huge sequoias. The woodland of around one hectare is planted mainly with oaks. Away from the Château is the orchard, enclosed by old walls: several fruit trees, including fig, mirabelle, apple and peach trees.
