A restored 17th-century chateau and outhouses in four hectares of grounds, nestled in a village in France’s Centre Val-de-Loire region. The chateau was built in the 17th century. It is surrounded by woods and meadows. The feudal lords who lived here, one after the other, ran the place like a farm. The four-hectare property lies in the town centre. You reach it via a large iron gate. A long tree-lined driveway then leads up to the chateau. The grounds are entirely enclosed with an outer wall punctuated with several doorways. The town is very old. It was traditionally a place of stonecutters. The local quarries were used up to the early 20th century. The buildings on the property are made of Fay stone, which is light grey, are they are crowned with slate roofs. Their elevations are rendered. The property is organised around a range of buildings with different purposes. On the south side, there is the large main dwelling. Its windows are evenly spaced out in line with each other. A long wing adjoins it. This wing is now a guesthouse. There is also a dovecote and outbuildings. The structures are arranged around a gravel courtyard and a garden. On the north side, a vast area of tree-dotted parkland extends behind the chateau.
